Few battles in the 2023 recruiting cycle felt as victorious for the Texas Longhorns than that of Anthony Hill. Outside of scoring Arch Manning, the No. 1 player
. Outside of scoring Arch Manning, the No. 1 player in the class and national media superstar, Hill was the top prospect the Horns brought in in an intense recruiting battle with the likes of Texas A&M, USC and Alabama. Hill had originally committed to A&M, but special teams coordinator Jeff Banks can be credited with bringing the freshman phenom on campus that Spring.two Hill made a name for himself on the national scale.
Coming off the edge for a defense like Texas' 2023 team is a fairly simple position. While Byron Murphy and T'Vondre Sweat terrorized the middle of the offensive line, work your way around the tackles to get to the quarterback. Hill succeeded as a quasi-edge rusher linebacker hybrid in 2023, working at both rushing the quarterback and helping out in run support and coverage here or there.
Hill was also never going to start in the Mike role from the jump, as senior Jaylan Ford had already established himself as a captain of the defense and one of Texas' most valuable pieces in 2022 as the team's middle linebacker. Drafted in the fifth round of the NFL Draft, Hill got a chance to play in 2023 but also learn under a future NFL Mike-backer, something that could help alleviate further problems Brooks foresaw.
It doesn't seem like Kwiatkowski has any worries, however, about how his underclassman linebacker will work on this defense.
