The Longhorns topped Illinois, Texas Tech, Ohio State, and Texas A&M for Thrower’s commitment
Thrower joins New Orleans (La.) Brother Martin Five-Star Plus+ Easton Royal as wideouts in Texas’ 2027 class.
Despite being ranked as a three-star prospect, Thrower is viewed by many DFW coaches as one of the toughest receivers to defend. During visits to area high schools, Chris Jackson repeatedly heard the same message when Thrower’s name came up. The feedback only confirmed what Texas already believed about his ability and potential.
Thrower has continued to develop his game while training with Margin Hooks, refining his route running, understanding spacing, and learning how to use his 6-foot-3 frame to create separation both vertically and throughout his routes. Hooks has worked with him on the small details that often separate good receivers from great ones.
