A former Texas target is considering joining the Longhorns. Arkansas safety Jalen Catalon is set to visit the Forty Acres soon.
Catalon took to social media during dead period to let his followers know he was in Austin. It wasn’t indicative of any campus visit, but at least showed that he enjoyed being in the area.
He was a four-star recruit and standout player at Mansfield Legacy before going to Arkansas. While in Fayetteville, the elite safety earned First Team All-SEC honors to help resurrect a struggling Arkansas program.
The proven player has had issues staying healthy, and his health is worth monitoring moving forward. Nevertheless, Texas is right to kick the tires on the possibility of adding the potential NFL prospect.
The Longhorns are set to lose two starters in the secondary in cornerback D’Shawn Jamison and safety Anthony Cook. Having added Gavin Holmes, Catalon could help raise the group’s ceiling and floor.
