WATCH: Texas HC Tom Herman discusses the 16 Longhorns early signees

It was the best of Early Signing Days, it was the worst of Early Signing Days.

Overall, the Texas Longhorns signed 16 out of roughly 22 commits, but suffered decommitments from a number of prospects such as wide receiver Quentin Johnson, defensive backs Joshua Eaton and Ethan Pouncey, all-purpose back Ty Jordan, and defensive ends Van Fillinger and Princely Umanmielen.

On Wednesday, head coach Tom Herman discussed the 16 signees — seven of whom are planning to enroll in the spring. The class currently ranks No. 10 nationally — behind the No. 9 Oklahoma Sooners — and No. 2 in the Big 12, according to the 247Sports Composite rankings.
