Texas A&M takes a hit with decommitment from 5-star LB Anthony Hill

According to Hayes Fawcett at on3, Hill now plans to take his recruitment all the way to signing day.

Ryan (Texas) five-star linebacker Anthony Hill committed to playing for Texas A&M at the end of July. Today, he backed out of that commitment. In a statement, Hill thanked the school and the coaching staff.

According to Hayes Fawcett at on3, Hill now plans to take his recruitment all the way to signing day.

Hill (6-foot-2, 225 pounds) is the consensus best linebacker in the class of 2023 and ranks No. 17 in the country according to 247 Sports.

The news was a blow for Jimbo Fisher’s 2023 recruiting class. Their score dropped to 212.88, which ranks No. 23 in the cycle. The Aggies were in the top 10 not too long ago.

Hill still has 33 offers on the table, including ones from Alabama, Miami, Oklahoma and USC – which were his other reported finalists. However, Nick Harris at Rivals reports that Texas is now trending for Hill’s commitment. He is visiting Austin for this weekend’s game against Auburn.

Notre Dame in Top 11 For Top ’21 Corner

Deuce Harmon of Guyer HS in Denton, TX cut his potential school list to 11 this weekend. See who else joins Notre Dame in making the cut.

Deuce Harmon, a play-defensive back from Guyer High School in Denton, Texas is one of the most sought after defensive backs in the entire 2021 recruiting class.  With 23 offers to his name, Harmon cut his list of potential suitors to 11 over the weekend.

The good news for Notre Dame?  They made the cut for the four-star prospect as he announced his 11 schools of interest on Instagram.

As you can see on the list it appears that Harmon is rather interested in staying in his home state as six of the eleven schools call Texas home.

Baylor, Southern Methodist, TCU, Texas, Texas A&M and Texas Tech are the home state schools he keeps an interest in while Notre Dame is joined by Mississippi State, Oklahoma State, Oregon and USC out of state.

Guyer is listed at 5-9, 185 pounds and was a first-team all district player as a junior.  He also helped guide Guyer to a 14-2 overall record and runner-up finish in Texas 6A Division-II.

As it stands right now, Justin Walters of Bolingbrook, Illinois remains the only defensive back commitment in Notre Dame’s 2021 recruiting class.
