Days after routing Michigan and climbing to No. 2 in the AP poll, Texas continued its run of late-summer recruiting momentum Thursday afternoon as the Longhorns landed a commitment from four-star safety Zelus Hicks, ESPN's No. 1 safety in the class of 2026.
Hicks, the 6-foot-2, 190-pound defensive back from Georgia's Carrollton High School, is the No. 19 prospect in the ESPN Junior 300. He is Texas' third ESPN 300 pledge in the 2026 cycle, joining No. 2 pocket passer Dia Bell and four-star wide receiver Chris Stewart.
