2027 LB Taven Epps has decommitted from Texas. 

Epps committed to Texas back in April, but has decided he will be reevaluating his options moving forward. 

Out of left field or nah?

Nobody takes these super early commits seriously anyway

Over a year away from the 2027 class mattering...

Yawn

I never understand kids that commit that early. Enjoy the process, make a decision your Sr year when you're ready. 

Translation: I got an agent and he says I can get more

Deuces 

‘27?  Don’t care!! 🤘🏽

Guys, he’s a highly valued player, so saying “deuces” or “don’t care” isn’t exactly the right comment. Texas will continue to recruit. Granted, it’s a long way from 2027 signing day. 

A little surprised on this one since he's a Cali kid. Any word on who is making the biggest move here?

Long time from signing day for this guy and he was visiting a bunch of other places that weren’t Texas. 
If he’s commits to a rival after being committed here, then you know, break a leg and all that.

Yeah, I don't get that. I wish the kid well and would love to have him back in the class if the coaches see that. 99.9% of us could not handle being a college football coach. We would ABSOLUTELY lose it during recruiting. It just shows the maturity, grace, and patience of these coaches. 

 

 

My years of being a Youth Pastor would pay GREAT dividends in that profession. It's not easy.

Bummer.  He's a potential superstar.  Which, of course, is why this is happening.
