On Wednesday the Texas Longhorns were able to add to their 2024 recruiting class in a big way.
Four-star offensive lineman Daniel Cruz announced his commitment to Texas via Twitter on Wednesday night. He marked the sixth commitment in the month of June for the Longhorns. Cruz ranks as the No. 15 interior offensive lineman in the country according to 247Sports composite.
Texas’ newest commit recently spoke with 247Sports‘ Steve Wiltfong and broke down why he chose the Longhorns.
“Honestly they’re just building something special and the relationship I have with Flood is very special and of course with the players! I believe with all my heart Flood can develop me into an NFL center and become an All-American and really get me to where I want to go both as a player and person!”
Cruz also touched on what he thinks being a Longhorn can do for his future.
“Really the opportunities I have to make a difference and be a leader there. They have great goals planned for me as a player and a student and a person.”
Texas now has the No. 46 class in the country and are viewed as the favorites to land several five-star recruits that could help skyrocket their rankings. Kyle Flood continues to assert himself as Texas’ best recruiter on the staff.
