Overview
- Rivals recruiting veterans Sam Spiegelman and Steve Wiltfong shifted their projections to Texas on Wednesday after the five-star’s spring stops in Austin.
- John Meredith III says he feels comfortable at both programs and remains uncommitted, with official visits to Texas and Texas A&M set for early June.
- Texas’s momentum is tied to Meredith’s growing rapport with Longhorns cornerbacks coach Mark Orphey during back-to-back visits this spring.
- As Meredith trends toward Texas, analysts report Texas A&M is pushing for fellow five-star corner Joshua Dobson, with Wiltfong close to moving his pick to the Aggies.
- Meredith carries Rivals’ Five-Star Plus+ label as the No. 1 corner and No. 2 overall in 2027, and his choice could swing in-state class rankings while Alabama and Ohio State lose traction.
