New recruiting prediction entered for five-star edge Colin Simmons

Texas appears to be in good shape on the eve of Colin Simmons’ commitment date.

We’ll soon learn the fate of Texas’ top priority recruiting target in the 2024 class.

Five-star edge Colin Simmons is set to announce his commitment between Texas, LSU and Miami on Thursday at 2 p.m. CT. Over the last few days, numerous recruiting predictions have started to roll in.

While some national media networks label it a toss up between Texas and LSU to land Simmons, 247Sports’ Sam Spiegelman is the latest to view the Longhorns as the leader in his recruitment at this time.

Considering it’s the eve of Simmons’ commitment date, this is significant news for Texas. If Steve Sarkisian’s staff is able to win this recruitment, it will become the biggest recruiting win on the Forty Acres in quite some time outside of Arch Manning.

Simmons is rated the No. 1 edge in the country and the No. 1 overall recruit in Texas, according to 247Sports composite.
