AUSTIN, TX – The Texas Longhorns have landed an official visit with one of the most highly-touted tight end recruits in the country, and fans are already drawing comparisons to Georgia’s Brock Bowers.
The recruit, who has chosen to remain anonymous for now, is considered one of the top tight end prospects in the 2026 class. He has already received offers from some of the top programs in the country, including Alabama, Ohio State, and Georgia.
According to sources close to the program, the recruit was impressed by the Longhorns’ facilities and coaching staff during his official visit. He also had the opportunity to meet with head coach Steve Sarkisian and tight ends coach Jeff Banks.
“The visit went great,” said a source. “The recruit was really impressed by the facilities and the coaching staff. He’s definitely considering Texas as one of his top options.”
The recruit’s visit to Texas has sparked excitement among Longhorns fans, who are eager to see the team land a top tight end prospect. The team’s current tight end, Ja’Tavion Sanders, is entering his junior season, and the Longhorns are looking to build depth at the position.
“Brock Bowers is the gold standard for tight ends in college football right now,” said one Texas fan. “If we can land a recruit who can come in and make an impact like Bowers has at Georgia, that would be huge for our program.”
While it’s still early in the recruiting process, the Longhorns are considered one of the top contenders for the recruit’s services. Texas has a strong tradition of producing talented tight ends, and the team’s coaching staff has a reputation for developing players at the position.
“The tight end position is a key part of our offense,” said Sarkisian. “We’re always looking for talented players who can come in and make an impact. We’re excited about the recruits we have coming in, and we’re looking forward to seeing them develop.”
The recruit is expected to make his decision later this summer, and Texas fans are eagerly awaiting the news. If the Longhorns can land the top tight end prospect, it would be a major coup for the program and a significant boost to the team’s chances of competing for a national championship.
