The Longhorns beat out University of Oklahoma for the best recruiting class in the Big 12 Conference.

Some of the losers National Signing Day are USC, Boston College and Rutgers. USC wasn’t able to make much noise. They were Number 54 in the recruiting class, which is the worst in school history. This bad luck flooded into the rest of the conference as none of the teams from the Pac 12 Conference made it into the top ten of recruiting this year. Boston College and Rutgers were Number 62 and Number 63 this year, respectively. However, both of these programs have new coaches that are looking forward to prove themselves for next year in 2021.
