HOOK ‘EM | 5-Star OT John Turntine III Commits to Texas

By CJ Vogel

Bang!

Add five more stars to the 2026 class for the Texas Longhorns!

2026 North Crowley OT John Turntine III has committed to Steve Sarkisian and Kyle Flood over Michigan, Stanford and Texas A&M.

Turntine has been atop of the Longhorns' big board essentially from the start of the 2026 class. The Longhorns also hosted Turntine and his family on more visits than any other school in the recruitment. 

There are some questions about where Turntine may play at the next level, largely due to an unconventional frame at the moment, but the plan has been and will be to use Turntinee as a tackle.
Speaking of Turntine's abilities, his punch and quickness laterally are tremendous.

This is a big win for the Horns as Turntine becomes the 18th member of the class and the third offensive linemen in the 2026 cycle.

    fortunately, he can take a Brandon Baker/Trevor Goosby approach to his career and see the field for the first time at 300+

    Yeah, Nick Brooks emerging as a bonafide tackle definitely helps a ton.

    Anyone have a link to his commitment video? 

    Can’t find the actual instagram video but OTF streamed it. Starts around the 30 min mark

    And just like that- the class is half full again (pun intended). Getting both Turntine and Ojo was a little too much to expect.  Welcome John.

    I’m pumped about this commitment. A solid kid that has been on top of the boards for a long time. I wonder with Ojo to Tech if this helps us flip Lee later on. I don’t know if it came down to NIL for Lee or if he genuinely liked Michigan more then Texas.
