Outside of the big 3 (Matt Davis, Trey, Bralon), who have been considered to be involved with Lyles (whether they have or have not remains to be seen, also doesn't help that Davis is coming off a major injury), there actually isn't as much talent in Texas as compared to other years.

Mario Edwards was the huge get, but everyone knew he was heading to Florida State because of daddy. Jonathan Gray is there too but he was a UT lock from the beginning with a slight chance to TCU

UTa got a WR named Cayleb Jones that is a stud. He's from Austin though so wouldve been hard to wrangle away.

Dom Wheeler is a stud but has off the field issues apparently and UTa and A&M quit recruiting. He later committed to Tx Tech.

Malcolm Brown is a very good DT from Brenham that chose UTa over A&M.

Those are the studs off the top of my head but there's still a lot more talent in the state. I don't consider it a down year for talent at all.

Also, I have no idea if any other Tx kids were ever linked to Lyles besides Trey W and Matt D. It has been rumored that Texas bought Jon Gray's family a house as early as after his 8th grade year that costs about $250,000. Again, rumored. There's no actual fire that I'm aware of. Just smoke
