Jordan Coleman, OT

One of the first offers that were announced on social media following the conclusion of the Mega Camp last weekend for the Longhorns came from the rising 2025 6-foot-5 and 310-pound Cedar Hill (TX) offensive tackle Jordan Coleman. The unranked rising high school junior made a big impression on offensive line coach/offensive coordinator Kyle Flood and the Longhorns with his combination of size and power.

Coleman is a big and powerful offensive lineman that has a strong lower base, which allows him to move bodies off the line of scrimmage with ease blocking for the run. If he can continue to improve his foot speed and lateral agility, Coleman projects as a well-rounded offensive lineman at the collegiate level that could play along the interior or at offensive tackle.

At the moment, he likely projects better as an interior offensive lineman given that his strength as a “big human” in the trenches is his ability to get downfield and terrorize opposing defensive linemen and linebackers in run blocking.

Moreover, it looks like the impression that Coleman made went further than just the reach of the Texas coaches at the Mega Camp over the weekend. Coleman also reeled in offers from the North Texas Mean Green and UTSA Roadrunners almost simultaneous to Texas extending him one on June 11. He also previously held offers from the Kansas Jayhawks and Texas Tech Red Raiders.

Jackson Christian, OT

Another rising offensive line recruit that Flood and the Longhorns offered coming out of the Mega Camp last weekend is the unranked 6-foot-5 and 290-pound Port Neches-Groves (TX) product Jackson Christian. Texas became the first Power Five school to offer Christian over the weekend. Texas also joins the Texas State Bobcats, UTSA, and North Texas among the FBS schools that have offered him thus far.

Inside Texas reported on June 12 (paid content) that Christian camped at Texas last weekend as an interior offensive lineman. Despite playing right tackle at Port Neches-Groves, Christian’s pull-blocking ability and fundamental skills as a pass blocker could translate at the collegiate level as a guard.
