Florida Gators Four-Star commit sets date for Longhorns visit

While the Texas Longhorns have been preparing to take on the Oklahoma Sooners, they have also been busy on the recruiting trail. According to Rivals, four-star defensive lineman commit Joseph Mbatchou has set his official visit to Texas for Oct. 18. His trip to Austin will come during the same weekend the Longhorns take on Georgia.

As Texas looks to flip Mbatchou, they are not the only program showing interest. He has received offers from South Carolina, Auburn, USC, Georgia, Auburn, LSU, and Tennessee. He made an unofficial visit to Texas last month and set official visits with Auburn and Florida in November.

The Longhorns’ interest in Mbatchou comes as no surprise. 247Sports ranks him the No. 46th defensive lineman in the 2025 class and the No. 50 overall player in Georgia.

When asked about Texas, Mbatchou told Rivals National Recruiting Analyst Sam Spiegelman, ” “Right now, Texas is probably recruiting me the hardest.” 

If Mbatchou were to join the Longhorns, he would be part of a talented 2025 class. The Longhorns already have commitments from five-star prospects such as receiver Kaliq Lockett, safety/linebacker Jonah Williams, and receiver Jaime Ffrench. On Thursday, they flipped four-star receiver Daylan McCutcheon, who had committed to Florida State.

As the recruiting season for the 2025 class winds down, Mbarchou will be a player to watch. He has a bright future and could excel in Austin. In less than a week, the Longhorns will make their case and show the Grayson High School product why they are his best option.
