Texas has 3 outstanding offers to players from St. Augustine High School in New Orleans - all of which are to highly ranked players. Let's take a look at these 3 and what the chances are of the Horns landing them:
Leonard Fournette, RB, 6-1, 230 lbs. - Fournette is the #1 running back in the 2014 Class (#3 on the Rivals 100). Fournette is a stud, to say the least. He is most likely an LSU or Alabama lean but has offers from tons of teams including the Horns. He is a 5-star back that will tear up the turf in the SEC. Fournette is a guy that picks the school he wants to attend, not the other way around.
Chances of Fournette committing to Texas - 10%
Jermaine Roberts, DB, 5-9, 155 lbs. - Roberts, a 3-star prospect, is a bit undersized but runs a solid 4.4 40yd. Texas A&M offered him early in the recruiting game and then Texas made an offer. He has additional offers from big name programs like Michigan and Florida State, UCLA and Ole Miss. Scouting report on Roberts details his "shiftiness" and closing speed. Roberts' recruitment seems to be wide open at this point and Texas is a contender for his services.
Chances of him committing to Texas - 35%
Courtney Garnett, DT, 6-2, 285 lbs. - Garnette is a guy that likes Texas. Publicly he has gone so far as to say Texas is his leader. Garnette is a 3-star kid with tremendous upside and was offered by Texas A&M and the Sooners (as well as Ole Miss and Tulane). Garnette and Roberts could potentially be a package deal for Mack Brown but Garnett looks to be extremely high on the Texas program.
Chances of him committing to Texas - 90%
