Up to this point, the 2021 Texas football recruiting class mainly held as one of the nation’s best. Despite a downturn in their results on the recruiting trail for about one or two months during the 2019 regular season, head coach Tom Herman and co. did a great job pulling together a talented group thus far for their 2021 class.
However, other blue blood college football programs are trying to pry away Herman’s best for their 2021 recruiting classes. Among those is head coach James Franklin and the Penn State Nittany Lions. On Jan. 27, Penn State became the second Division I program this month to send a scholarship offer the way of four-star Denton-Ryan athlete and Texas commit Billy Bowman.
