Texas Lands Austin Westlake QB Sam Ehlinger

Rejoice, Texas fans. Sam Ehlinger had to play the waiting game for a bit as Charlie Strong and his staff evaluated him several times before offering, but the offer was eventually was extended. After taking some time to make sure he didn’t get caught up in the moment, Ehlinger has pulled the trigger to become a Longhorn.

That tweet says it all. Ehlinger wanted to be a Longhorn from the beginning and it was never really close. I love it when a kid is able to make a commitment to his dream school…
