Texas offers Tennessee JUCO DT commit Christian Mays
The Longhorns are now officially pursuing the No. 1 JUCO DT in the 2027 recruiting class.
In a parallel to the Texas vs Tennessee football clash, the Longhorns have extended a scholarship offer to defensive tackle Christian Mays of Northeast Mississippi CC. Mays had previously committed to Tennessee in June. After a productive conversation with coach Baker, Mays expressed gratitude for earning the offer from Texas, tweeting, "Blessed."
Standing at 6'5" and weighing 340 pounds, Mays made an early junior college recruitment visit to both Tennessee and Arkansas. While the recruitment is not yet concluded, other schools like Georgia and Colorado have also shown interest, joining Texas in making offers. Mays is also negotiating with Auburn and Mississippi State. Ranked as the No. 2 overall prospect and top defensive tackle in JUCO by 247Sports Composite, Mays has become a sought-after player in the college recruitment landscape.
