LOOK: Texas recruits attempt to get five-star WR Evan Stewart to Austin

Wednesday was a major turning point in Texas’ 2022 recruiting class. Four-star Brenen Thompson announced his commitment, instantly changing the dynamic of the Longhorns’ wide receiver room. He is one of the fastest prospects in the country, let alone the state.

A few hours later, Twitter was set on fire with the possibility of another elite wide receiver committing.

Everything began with a few eyeball emojis — as things seem to do in this day and age. Director of Recruiting Brandon Harris sent a few out, as did Courtney Helom. The player of interest? Five-star Evan Stewart.

Stewart decided to quote tweet with his own eyeball emojis and sent Texas recruiting Twitter into a madhouse. Soon thereafter, some of the top commits in the 2022 cycle began tweeting out #EvanStewarttoAustin, trying to get him back in the class.

He plans on being in Dallas for the Red River Shootout this weekend. A win against Oklahoma could be the final straw, forcing Stewart to shut down his recruitment and join Thompson and Armani Winfield as wide receiver commits.

Either way, we know Texas is trying its hardest and is not scared to keep it a secret.
