Steve Sarkisian and Texas secured a commitment from Jerrick Gibson, the top-ranked running back in the 2024 class, on Saturday.
Gibson (No. 29 overall in the 2024 ESPN 300), who also considered Georgia, Tennessee, Miami and Florida, would be the second ESPN 300 running back to sign with the Longhorns in as many years after Edgewater High School (Florida) product Cedric Baxter, Jr. (No. 30 overall, No. 3 RB) in 2023.
Gibson committed while on his official visit to Austin this weekend and he also took official visits to Georgia and Miami earlier this month.
