One of the more interesting storylines that emerged around the end of the regular season that was relevant to the Texas Longhorns was the hiring of former head coach Mack Brown by the North Carolina Tar Heels. It also had implications for the 2019 Texas football recruiting class. The recruiting crossover doesn’t apply between a whole lot of targets for Texas football recruiting and the Tar Heels, but it could in some regard.
However, what’s the most intriguing to follow since the Tar Heels hired Brown is the recruiting progress of each program. The head coach for the Horns, Tom Herman, had a lot of success on the recruiting trail for the past two cycles.
