Could the 2021 Texas football recruiting class soon get a big boost from a former Virginia Tech wide receiver commit Latrell Neville?

Potential help at a position of need for the 2021 Texas football recruiting class might soon arrive in the form of a decommitment from another Power Five program. On June 6, four-star Hightower 6-foot-3 and 195 pound wide receiver Latrell Neville rescinded his pledge to head coach Justin Fuente and the Virginia Tech Hokies to re-open his recruitment.

It was not more than roughly two months that Neville stayed committed to Virginia Tech.
