In an unexpected development, the Texas Longhorns lost the commitment from Arlington Seguin safety Jamel Johnson on Monday via an announcement on Twitter.
The 6’1, 185-pounder was the first pledge for the Longhorns in the 2023 recruiting class last November, following the commitment and decommitment of El Campo running back Reuben Owens. Johnson chose Texas over a final group that included Alabama and Texas A&M and now holds 40 total offers. Arkansas hosted him for an official visit in June and Florida State received an unofficial visit earlier that month, but there weren’t any recent signs that Johnson was wavering with his commitment.
