Cornerback Malik Muhammad had a constant presence in his ear amplifying the virtues of the direction Texas is heading in. Muhammad paid heed to that presence -- Arch Manning -- and added to Steve Sarkisian's recruiting class by committing to the Longhorns on Wednesday.
"We were talking when we both had our official visits at the University of Texas. And then he texted me almost every day, telling me, 'Come to Texas. You're next. You're next.' Every day," Muhammad said, referring to Manning.
The 5-foot-11, 170-pound Muhammad, No. 38 in the 2023 ESPN 300, attends South Oak Cliff High School in Dallas.
