He won't get credited for recruiting Devin Duvernay, but one of the influencers in Texas swaying the elite WR to Austin was sophomore linebacker Malik Jefferson.

Duvernay, who is from the North Dallas area like Jefferson, has known the former high school All-American linebacker for a while, and there's no doubt Jefferson had a bit of an impact on Duvernay. It's not just on Duvernay, though, Jefferson might be the best recruiter for the Longhorns based on the number of players he's helped reel in.

His commitment late in 2014 helped Texas land Kris Boyd, DeAndre McNeal, Chris Warren and others in the 2015 class. Once he got to campus, his impact was still felt as Jefferson's friendships with players such as Jean Delance, Brandon Jones and Jeffrey McCulloch helped the Longhorns land elite talent.

In other words, Jefferson proved an important factor in the commitments of many of Texas' top-ranked players the last two years.

This pattern led Bleacher Report's Matt Miller to pose a question to Jefferson on Twitter, and Jefferson provided an answer to it Longhorns fans will love:

Jefferson isn't likely to be around the Forty Acres for much longer than three years, so time is against that goal. But with Jefferson helping to recruit, there's little doubt the Longhorns will at least have the talent necessary to try and achieve it.
