BREAKING: 2026 Mayde Creek four-star LB Kosi Okpala commits to Texas
The four-star linebacker is now the 16th commit in Texas’ 2026 class.
“The connection and relationship at Texas that I have built with the coaches over there was stronger than every other school recruiting me,” Okpala said. “I feel like Texas was the best option for me to play on a big stage and that’s why I chose them.”
Okpala took his last official visit to Texas on June 20th and what he saw on his visit really solidified his decision in committing to the Longhorns.
“I loved everything about my visit,” he said. “The fit, NIL opportunities, building relationships with the players, everything just was the right fit for me and that’s when I knew it was home.”
Okpala makes his commitment ahead of his Senior year and he’s ready to focus in and have a big year hoping to lead the Rams back to the playoffs.
“It means a lot to commit before my senior year and start focusing in on getting ready for the season,” Okpala said. “I really just want to have another productive year this year, add more to the stat sheet and take home the Defensive player of the year and District MVP but the main goal is to just go out there and help my team win.”
The talented Mayde Creek star is officially off the board and look for him and the Rams to have a big season, but Okpala had one last message to Longhorn fans as he is now committed.
“I’m going to come in there ready to win, ready to compete. The goal is to win, one thing at a time… I’m ready to get to work!”
BREAKING: 2025 Galveston Ball 5-Star ATH Williams Commits To Texas
2025 Galveston Ball five-star Athlete Jonah Williams has committed to Texas over LSU, Texas A&M, Oregon, and USC a week before he opens up his senior season against Manvel on the 29th.
Though many people had predicted the talented Ball super-star to land with another in-state school Texas A&M, it became a battle between LSU and Texas down the stretch with Texas edging them out.
“The fit, the relationships with the coaches, the life after football,” Williams Said. “You can’t give up an opportunity like that when you’re born and raised in Texas.”

Early playing time and development were big factors for Williams recruitment as he is an early grad, along with Texas having two safeties who will be leaving after this year and a coach who’s been where he wants to be, Texas was the easy choice.
“I want to get on the field as early as possible,” he said. “Coach Gideon the safety coach there started as a true freshman and knows what it takes to be able to get that playing time early and develop me into the player I am trying to become.”
Williams commits to Texas as a dual-sport athlete where he will play football and baseball for the Longhorns.
“Being able to display my God-given talent in both baseball and football is just truly a blessing. Texas is a ‘Blue Blood’ in both sports so the ability to be able to compete in at a high level in both sports and win some natty’s is something that means a lot to me.”
Now committed, the five-star will look to have a big senior year in his last round wearing the purple-and-gold.
But before the season begins, he has one message for Longhorn fans.
“Longhorns let’s win the natty already… it’s been overdue!”
