_BREAKING: 5-Star Recruit Flips Commitment from TCU Horned Frogs in Stunning Move_
Fort Worth, TX – In a shocking turn of events, 5-star recruit, Kendrick Jackson, has announced that he is flipping his commitment from the TCU Horned Frogs to the Texas Longhorns. The news sent shockwaves throughout the college football world, as Jackson was considered one of the top recruits in the class of 2025.
Jackson, a 6-foot-4, 220-pound defensive end from Dallas, Texas, had been committed to the Horned Frogs since August. However, after taking an official visit to Texas last weekend, Jackson decided to make the switch to the Longhorns.
“I’m thrilled to announce that I’m committing to the University of Texas,” Jackson said in a statement. “The Longhorns’ program is rich in tradition, and I’m excited to be a part of it. Coach Steve Sarkisian and his staff have been incredible throughout the recruiting process, and I’m looking forward to playing for them.”
The loss of Jackson is a significant blow to the Horned Frogs, who had been counting on him to be a key player in their 2025 recruiting class.
“We’re disappointed to lose Kendrick, but we wish him all the best,” said TCU head coach Sonny Dykes. “We’ll continue to work hard to build a strong recruiting class and compete for championships.”
Jackson’s decision to flip his commitment to Texas is a major coup for the Longhorns, who are looking to rebuild their program under Coach Sarkisian.
“Kendrick is an exceptional talent, and we’re thrilled to have him join our program,” said Sarkisian. “He’s a dominant defensive end who can make an immediate impact on our team. We’re looking forward to seeing him in a Longhorns uniform.”
The recruitment of Jackson was a intense battle between the Horned Frogs and the Longhorns, with both programs pulling out all the stops to land the talented defensive end.
In the end, Jackson chose the Longhorns due to their rich tradition of producing top-notch defensive players and their commitment to helping him achieve his goals on and off the field.
“I’m excited to be a part of the Longhorns’ family and contribute to the team’s success,” Jackson said. “I’m looking forward to working with Coach Sarkisian and the rest of the coaching staff to help me become the best player I can be.”
The addition of Jackson to the Longhorns’ recruiting class is a significant boost to their chances of competing for a Big 12 championship in 2025.
As for the Horned Frogs, they will have to regroup and refocus their recruiting efforts in order to build a strong 2025 class.
“We’ll continue to work hard to build a strong recruiting class and compete for championships,” Dykes said. “We’re confident that we can find other talented players to help us achieve our goals.”
The recruitment of Jackson is a reminder that recruiting is a fluid process, and things can change quickly. The Longhorns are thrilled to have Jackson on board, while the Horned Frogs will have to move on and focus on other recruiting targets.
