Tom Herman’s 2021 class is no longer a one-man band.
On Tuesday morning, Austin Lake Travis tight end Lake McRee jumped into the mix and took to Twitter to announce his commitment to the Texas Longhorns.
With 15 offers in hand, McRee chose the Horns over notable options including USC, Texas A&M, TCU, North Carolina, Baylor, and Arkansas. However, there was little reason to believe that McRee would take his talents anywhere other than Texas.
A local product, McRee grew up a Texas fan, and on April 25, just days after his his first offseason trip to Texas for the spring game, McCree earned the opportunity to take his talents to his favorite program.
