Four-star Texas TE target Brock Williams sets commitment date
Jeff Banks tries to secure one of the biggest tight end pledges of his tenure on the Forty Acres.
If there’s been one knock on the recruiting ability of Texas Longhorns tight ends coach and special teams coordinator Jeff Banks over his five years in Austin, it’s been his inability to consistently land elite tight ends, an area Banks hopes to address when Libertyville (Ill. ) standout Brock Williams makes his decision on May 15. 🚨 May 15th commitment day!!!
🚨 @GregSmithRivals @TomLoy247 — Brock Williams (@BrockWill2027) May 5, 2026 For the last seven months, Williams has turned his focus to his three finalists — Georgia, Ohio State, and Texas. Each of those three schools have been able get the 6’5, 210-pounder on campus multiple times, including the Longhorns for an unofficial visit in late March that seemed to push Texas towards the top of Williams’ recruitment. In recent years, beating out the Bullogs for top tight ends has been a challenge for the Longhorns as Georgia tight ends have found success on the field, but the recent track record for Texas with NFL Draft picks at the position in each of the last three years.
Williams holds close to 40 total offers, including Alabama, Arkansas, Auburn, Florida, Florida State, Miami, Michigan, Nebraska, North Carolina, Notre Dame, Oklahoma, Ole Miss, Oregon, Tennessee, Texas A&M, and USC, among others. Over the last two seasons at Libertyville, Williams recorded 79 catches for 1,204 yards and 18 touchdowns. A consensus four-star prospect, Williams is ranked as the No.
79 player nationally and the No. 4 tight in the 247Sports Composite rankings. View Link
