BREAKING: 2025 LB Anthony Williams Backs Off Texas Pledge
The Texas Longhorns lost a commitment from the three-star linebacker out of Pearland, Texas.
The Texas Longhorns have gotten off to somewhat of a slow start when it comes to their 2025 recruiting class, and on Thursday they lost a member.
Three-star linebacker Anthony Williams took to Twitter to announce that he feels it is best for him to re-open his recruitment, and back off his pledge from the Longhorns.
“First off, I would like to thank God for giving me the opportunity to play this game and have the chance to play at the next level,” Williams wrote. “The University of Texas has been nothing but great to me and I can’t thank them enough, but I have made the decision to decommit from The University of Texas. My recruitment is officially reopened."
