One of the more hotly discussed targets of late for the 2022 Texas football recruiting class, four-star Memorial cornerback Jaylon Guilbeau, is also a former commit. The 5-foot-11.5 and 175-pound blue-chip defensive back looks to be one of the more important defensive targets for Texas in the months leading up to the Early Signing Period.
New head coach Steve Sarkisian once held the commitment of Guilbeau in the Longhorns 2022 class, but he announced his decommitment back on July 21. But Texas kept making a strong push to get the commitment of Guilbeau back in the past two months or so to try and keep an edge over competing schools in his recruitment.
