After a big recruiting visit weekend are the Texas Longhorns about to hit the jackpot (again) in the transfer portal?
One week after helping the Georgia Bulldogs win the National Championship Latavious Brini entered his name into the transfer portal. Brini, a former 3-star out of Hialeah, Florida, played a big part in the Bulldogs secondary totaling 38 tackles and 8 pass deflections from the safety position in 2021.
Brini is a long athletic defensive back that Sark and PK like to recruit. It is pretty obvious to me that he will fit into the “Star” position in PK’s defense. If you paid attention to the recruitment of 2022 5-star linebacker Harold Perkins, then you will know what that position entails.
PK uses the “Star” position for players that are versatile enough to play any position on the field. Brini 100% fits that mold, because he can play back at safety or come down and play in the box or rush the quarterback off the edge. He really is the complete player you’re looking for on defense.
The thing is, Brini wasn’t just some bench player for the Bulldogs. He started 11 games in 2021 for the #1 team in the country and played significant time when he wasn’t starting. If Sark is able to land the talented defensive back it would be a huge win for the Texas Longhorns.
Brini reportedly visited Austin and the University of Texas over this weekend and will be making his decision tomorrow (Sunday). When Brini does make his decision, I fully expect him to pick the Texas Longhorns. Like I said earlier this would be a MASSIVE get for Sarkisian and Pete Kwiatkowski.
In Closing
Adding an experienced, elite defensive back to the Longhorns thin DB room would work wonders for PK, Terry Joseph, and Blake Gideon. Sark and Texas have dominated the transfer portal so far this offseason and adding Brini would only exemplify that.
