I actually don't mind Texas for some reason but how does one of the richest programs with great recruiting opportunities only have a handful of top 5 finishes in the last 30-40 years?

 

Several reasons.

 

1. Rivals, the primary evaluator of HS talent, artificially inflates Texas "Star Ratings" their owner is a massive horn and likes to pump their ratings to make them look better

2. The rise of programs like OU, Tech, Baylor, A&M, and TCU always deliver a couple losses each year

3. Talent is not developed once on campus

4. Recruiting suffers due to lack of investment in facilities

5. Game is changing and the current staff at UT is pretty incompetent.
