Texas football set to visit a 4-star Texas A&M transfer
Will Steve Sarkisian and the Texas football program work their magic en route to landing Tyanthony Smith from Mike Elko’s Texas A&M squad?
No wins in away games were just not cutting it for budding youngster Tyanthony Smith. The additional departure of Jimbo Fisher may have also been another huge red flag for him. Now, he has officially made his intentions clear by leaving Mike Elko’s Texas A&M football program to flip his commitment. A lot of college scouts are once again courting him but it seems like Steve Sarkisian and the Texas football squad are leading the race in landing the linebacker.
The Texas football program will host Tyanthony Smith for an upcoming visit, per Gerry Hamilton of On 3 Sports. He was supposed to check out the facilities immediately after his NCAA transfer portal decision. But the visit to Steve Sarkisian’s squad fell through in the previous month. He would then be stuck in limbo while still being committed to Mike Elko’s Texas A&M.
Smith is one hell of a defender that the Longhorns could use in the future. He notched 217 tackles with 19 tackles for loss. Quarterbacks may shiver if they side with the Texas football squad as well. Three sacks were under his belt throughout his high school tenure. Sarkisian is sure to get a quality linebacker if he ends up donning the iconic colors
Nothing is set in stone yet but the future looks bright for the Longhorns. Do they finally have their linebacker of the future?
