After the Georgia Bulldogs knocked off the TCU Horned Frogs 65-7 in the National Championship, two questions came across my mind. Is Texas ready for the SEC, and what do the Longhorns need to do to be able to perennially compete with the Georgia Bulldogs led by Kirby Smart and the Alabama Crimson Tide led by Nick Saban. John Garcia Jr., Director of Football Recruiting at Sports Illustrated, joins the show to discuss what needs to happen over the next few years for Texas to put themselves in that class with the two biggest powerhouses currently in College Football. We've seen transcendent quarterbacks in the past like Trevor Lawrence, Jameis Winton and Deshaun Watson be able to transcend the more talented roster they were going against (atleast in the case of Watson & Lawrence). Is Arch Manning the quarterback for Texas that can expedite this "rebuild" and put them into national championship contention. Kirby Smart and Nick Saban are the two premier coaches in college football currently. For Texas to get to where they want to go, Steve Sarkisian is going to have to find a way to add his name to that elite group. Does he have the ability to? We discuss the addition of Jalen Catalon from Arkansas via the portal, what other positions of need that the Longhorns need to address via the portal, and how important is the next receiver coach hire by Steve Sarkisian in lieu of Brennan Marion's decision to leave the 40 acres and accept the Offensive Coordinator position at UNLV. All of that and more on today's episode of Locked on Longhorns. Hook Em
