Texas’ 2022 recruiting class got off to a hot start on the offensive side of the ball with five-star and No. 2 overall player Quinn Ewers and four-star wide receiver Phaizon Wilson. Now, cornerbacks coach Jay Valai is seemingly about to land another blue-chip player.
Issac Thompson, a four-star cornerback out of Saint Louis, Missouri, has been trending towards the Longhorns on the 247Sports crystal ball over the weekend. Three people have inserted picks for Texas since Sept. 11 with the confidence level of six. Sean Bock, an Iowa insider, is the most confident with a score of seven.
Baylor, Iowa State, Kansas, Kansas State, Oklahoma State, and West Virginia are the other six Big 12 teams to offer Thompson. Top schools from the rest of the country such as Florida, LSU, Michigan, and Miami have also extended a scholarship to the cornerback.
Thompson has been open about the possibility of committing to Texas on Twitter. After Kevin Lamar Coleman Jr., another St. Louis native, received an offer from the Longhorns, Thompson tweeted out his support with a hook ’em emjoi.
