2022 RB Zach Evans discusses Texas offer, fit in Steve Sarkisian’s offense

The recruiting process is beginning to reach new heights for 2022 Rockwall-Heath running back Zach Evans.

After capping a junior campaign that saw the three-star prospect record 1,220 yards and 14 touchdowns on 199 carries, Evans notched his first offer of the new year with the Texas Longhorns officially jumping into the mix on Friday morning.

“I talked to coach (Stan) Drayton and it was real good conversation,” Evans said of getting call about his offer. “Got to talk about schemes and some of what they plan to do if I were to come.”

Evans’ latest offer comes after building a relationship in recent months with the Longhorns running back coach, who was among the few holdovers from Tom Herman’s staff, thanks in part to Drayton’s ability to develop genuine relationships with recruits.
