Happy Halloween! Shaka Smart and the Texas Longhorns landed their fourth recruit in the 2018 class. Kamaka Hepa, a 4* forward from Portland, Oregon — by way of Beyond the Wall Hoth Snowpiercer Barrow, Alaska — committed to Texas.
Seriously. Read Hepa’s backstory and tell me he doesn’t autorank as your favorite recruit in the class.
Hepa just squeaks in as a top 50 recruit (he’s currently five-oh on the 247 Composite rankings), adding to a solid foundational class that contains fellow top 50 member and wing scorer Gerald Liddell and forwards Brock Cunningham and Jaxson Hayes.
