Following a brief rash of de-committments from Texas’ future recruits, 2021 athlete Billy Bowman is bucking the trend and doubling down on his commitment to Texas. According to the Statesman’s Mike Craven, Bowman has known Texas’ new offensive coordinator for years and has recently spoken with Texas’ new defensive coordinator.
Out of Ryan High School in Denton, Texas, Bowman is a multi-position, multi-sport athlete. In high school, he played as a running back, wide receiver, punt returner, and defensive back on the football field while also playing basketball and participating in track and field.
