As one of the names on this list that seems like a potential fast-riser for the Longhorns 2024 class in the months ahead, the potent 6-foot-3 and 280-pound Atascocita interior offensive lineman Nate Kibble is surely a name to watch on the Forty Acres. Texas got an offer out to Kibble back on Nov. 8, 2021, so he’s been on the radar for a few months now.

The likely scenario is probably going to be that Kibble waits to draw out his recruitment and see if he can pick up more offers heading into the summer months, where visits take center stage. But there is also the possibility that offensive line coach/offensive coordinator Kyle Flood captures the lightning in the bottle that he found recruiting his position group on the trail in the last couple of months and really make a push to land a commitment from Kibble.

It really seems like Kibble is one of the bigger names to watch early on that is a target of the Longhorns 2024 class along the offensive line. Texas proved their intentions to make Kibble a priority early on in this recruiting cycle by being just the third school to send him a scholarship offer. The other four schools that offered him thus far are the Memphis Tigers, UTSA Roadrunners, Texas State Bobcats, and Houston Cougars.

But Kibble already visited the Texas A&M Aggies multiple times during his recruitment process. A Texas A&M offer in the near future wouldn’t be surprising.

Kibble also visited Texas last fall in the season-opening win at home over Louisiana in Week 1.

It looks like the Texas offer is really sticking out for Kibble as he has that announcement as his pinned tweet on his Twitter page. Expect Texas to continue to push for Kibble as this offseason moves along. He is certainly a name to watch early on.
