Four-star linebacker Kip Lewis takes self-guided tour at Texas

Kip Lewis took a self-guided tour on Saturday. Since the NCAA has not allowed official visits, recruits must visit campuses on their own.

One of the fastest rising linebackers in the state of Texas is four-star prospect Kip Lewis. Programs such as LSU, Notre Dame, Oklahoma, Texas A&M, and USC have offered the Carthage prospect since the New Year. He’s listed as an outside linebacker on 247Sports and could also project as an inside linebacker.

After Lewis’s 2020 season, it’s easy to see why the top schools in the country want him. He finished with 140 tackles, 17 tackles for a loss, four sacks, two fumble recoveries, one pass breakup, a forced fumble, and an interception. Wherever the ball was, Lewis showed up shortly after.

Lewis took a self-guided tour in Austin on Saturday. Since the NCAA is still not allowing official visits, players must choose to visit campuses on their own. According to Justin Wells of Inside Texas, he will head to College Station next.

Lewis recently tweeted out how his recruitment was open and he was considering all options. You can see his full statement below:

Blessed to receive my first colliegete offer after the State game (Dec. 2020) my life has been a lot a series of conversations every since. I’m deeply grateful for it all. It’s a great feeling to be able to have the opportunity to attend college and play one of my greatest loves (football). Currently, I do not have a top 5 or a top 10 at this time. We are open to consider all options. Due to covid I haven’t been able to visit any college campus in person. @MakhaiLewis4 We would like the opportunity to see the campus and meet the staff in person before narrowing our options. Thank you, Kip Lewis

On the 247Sports composite, Lewis is the No. 46 player in the state of Texas. Nationally, he ranks as No. 340 in the country and the No. 25 outside linebacker. With another monster season, he will certainly once again rise in the rankings.
