Son of Texas Legend Throws Longhorns Hat on Ground Before Committing to Notre Dame
Son of Texas Legend Throws Longhorns Hat on Ground Before Committing to Notre Dame originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Texas Longhorns fans went into Friday hoping to make three monster splashes on the recruiting trail only to be spurned twice. Advertisement Starting with the positive, the Longhorns were able to secure a commitment from the nation's No. 2 interior offensive lineman, John Turntine III. According to 247Sports, Turntine ranks as the No. 53 player in the country and the No. 7 player in the State of Texas, giving Texas six top-100 recruits. As for the not-so-positive, the Longhorns missed out on the No. 1 offensive tackle in the class in Felix Ojo at the last minute, as Texas Tech came swooping in with an offer that will see him earn as much as $5.1 million to be a Red Raider. While that one stings, it may not hurt as badly as missing out on the son of program legend Jermichael Finley, Kaydon Finley. The younger Finley even toyed with Texas fans, before eventually revealing he was committing to Notre Dame. Advertisement As seen during his commitment, the Aledo product picked up the Texas hat from the table and nearly put it on before tossing it to the ground. He then picked up Notre Dame's hat and revealed his pledge to Marcus Freeman and the Fighting Irish. It is certainly a massive addition for Notre Dame, which now has the No. 3 class in the country, according to 247Sports. Finley also marks the second in-state recruit that Notre Dame beat Texas out for, as the Longhorns were also in the mix for four-star running back Javian Osborne for the majority of his recruitment. Texas Longhorns head coach Steve Miron-USA TODAY Sports If there was a silver lining for Texas when it comes to missing on Finley, it'd have to be the fact that they brought in an elite group of receivers last cycle. They brought in two five-stars in Jaime Ffrench and Kaliq Lockett, while also landing the nation's No. 1 athlete, Michael Terry III. Advertisement Losing Finley may sting because of his father's connection to the program, but Texas has put together top classes seemingly every year under Sarkisian, so it's safe to say they'll live.

Connor Zilisch Didn't Want to Be Trackhouse's ‘Scaredy-Cat' at Atlanta Cup Race
Connor Zilisch Didn't Want to Be Trackhouse's 'Scaredy-Cat' at Atlanta Cup Race originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Following his P4 finish in the Xfinity Series race at Atlanta, Connor Zilisch— the Trackhouse development driver — entered the Quaker State 400 at EchoPark Speedway for his third NASCAR Cup start this season. The Cup Series race, featuring a chaotic Stage 2 drama, turned out to be a worthy experience for him, as he managed an impressive 11th-place finish for the team. Advertisement On Lap 69, the 260-mile Cup race saw a massive pileup, which knocked out many big names, including Joey Logano, Corey LaJoie, and Austin Cindric. But, surprisingly, Zilisch managed to steer clear of the wreck, powering through to the checkered flag in the end. Connor Zilisch walks through the NASCAR Xfinity Series garage at J. Rebilas-Imagn Images Piloting Trackhouse's fourth car at Atlanta, the 18-year-old development racer opened up about gaining the other drivers' trust while drafting. "Man, it's just going to take time," said the rookie Xfinity driver. "It's tough — and I get it. I'm young and new to this. They haven't raced with me, they don't trust me enough to push me. That's been the same everywhere I've gone, every series I've raced. Advertisement "I was trying my best to be as respectful as possible, giving people space. I want to build that respect. I'm trying not to be too nice and make everyone think I'm a scaredy-cat, but at the same time, I don't want to ruffle anyone's feathers," he emphasized. With a solid result at Atlanta, the Red Bull athlete looked highly motivated for another race with Trackhouse when asked about coming to another drafting track in the Cup Series. "Yeah, definitely," he answered. "The Trackhouse cars have been on the up. Today was a lot of attrition, to be honest. I wasn't an 11th-place car — I ran better than I should have. But that's part of these races. They're long, and sometimes you've just got to make it to the end of them. Advertisement "So yeah, I was glad to see the checkered flag. That was my goal for today, and we made it — made it in exemplary fashion and got a decent finish out of it. Not a points day, but still a solid result. I checked all my boxes. If you'd told me this morning I was going to finish 11th, I'd be ecstatic." With a career-best finish in the Cup Series at Atlanta, Zilisch is turning out to be a pleasant surprise for Trackhouse, who'll surely be looking to include him in more Cup races in the future.
