Predicting Texas's next flip after DL Myron Charles

DJ Sanders, DL (Texas A&M commit)

The top in-state flip target at defensive tackle for the Longhorns in the 2025 class this fall is Bellville (TX) four-star and Texas A&M Aggies commit DJ Sanders. On Aug. 7, Sanders committed to Texas A&M over Texas and Michigan.

Sanders officially visited all three of his finalist schools back in May and June last offseason. His decision in early August came down to the Longhorns and Aggies, with Texas finishing in second place just behind Texas A&M for Sanders' pledge.

Among the four possible flip targets for the Longhorns along the interior defensive line for this cycle, Sanders is probably the least likely to back off the school he's currently committed to. That said, the Longhorns have remained in contact with Sanders since he committed to Texas A&M roughly one month ago.

Since Sanders is one of the best defensive tackle prospects in Texas in the 2025 class, I don't doubt the Longhorns will continue to recruit him through the finish line on signing day in December.

Kevin Wynn, DL (Florida State commit)

Another out-of-state flip target to note that the Longhorns have been in regular communication with on the recruiting trail for the past couple of months is four-star Florida State commit Kevin Wynn. The big 6-foot-2 and 325-pound defensive lineman from Green County High School in Greensboro, GA, appears to be communicating consistently with other schools pursuing him on the trail, including Georgia and Texas.

Florida State's struggles on the field has caused their recruiting class for 2025 to start to fracture a bit. Head coach Mike Norvell and the Noles already lost one key blue-chip defensive lineman in the 2025 class this weekend when Charles flipped his commitment from Florida State to the Longhorns.

Texas and Georgia have both been successfully chipping away at Wynn's commitment to Florida State after they dropped the first two games of the 2024 campaign and were effectively already eliminated from the Playoff conversation.
