Texas Football: Impact 4-Star S commit Xavion Alford brings Longhorns

The summer of 2019 will be one to remember for the Texas football recruiting department. The news of recruits continued on Friday Aug. 16 when four-star Shadow Creek High School and Pearland, TX, native safety Xavion Alford committed to the Texas Longhorns football program.

Alford is a versatile 6-foot-0 and 185 pound defensive back that held more than 40 schools on his offer sheet. The highlighting schools of his offer sheet included the Alabama Crimson Tide, Texas A&M Aggies, LSU Tigers, Georgia Bulldogs, Michigan Wolverines, Florida State Seminoles, USC Trojans, and Tennessee Volunteers.

This was a big win for the 2020 Texas football recruiting class since yet another defensive back gets added to this rising group of 16 commits now.
