A Quick Look At Texas's 2015 Commits

(h/t Austin American-Statesman)

Mack Brown and the Texas Longhorns are now putting more emphasis on recruiting younger prospects and they're starting to reap the rewards.  Already, the 'Horns have three 2015 commitments which is larger than many of the Big 12's 2014 classes.  Below is a quick look at their early 2015 commits.

CB Jalen Campbell:  Campbell committed to Texas in late March, a week after receiving his first offer from Texas at their inaugural sophomore day.  Campbell will end up as one of the top players in the state for 2015.  Already, in the '15 LSR, he's #8 overall and the second DB on the list.  He impressed many at a Rivals Camp Series stop in Houston and was named the second-best overall defender at the camp regardless of class.   Here is a snippet of what Rivals had to say($):

He showed great footwork and hips and most importantly ball skills. When he did get beat he used tremendous leaping ability to high point the ball, making one of the top plays of the day against one of the top offensive performers on day by making a leaping over the should interception.

OL Aaron Garza:  Garza was the first to commit out of the three back on UT's sophomore day.  Garza is #23 overall and #2 at his position in the 2015 LSR.  Garza chose Texas over offers from Baylor and Michigan.  Garza is already 6'3/315 and still has two more years of high school football left.  Most see him playing in the interior of the line and he already shows qualities better than older lineman as noted by SB Nation:

There is also evidence on film that he can pack a significant punch both in the run game and in pass protection, which is hardly a given even for older offensive linemen who are quality prospects.

DT Bryce English:  Last is Bryce English who also committed in late March.  English is a little further down the LSR coming at #76.  English has ties to the Texas program as his godfather is the a recruiting coordinator and the tight end coach for the Longhorns.  Here is a little more on English from Orangebloods.com($).

English lists himself at 6-0, 315 pounds right now and credits the great strength and conditioning program at DeSoto for his outstanding strength and quickness. He's not one of the most well-known 2015 prospects in the recruiting world at the moment, but that will soon change. And English is gunning for the top spot at his position. With an ability to play all over the defensive line, it's not surprising that Texas jumped on him early.
