Lufkin running back Kedren Young is officially on the Texas Longhorns recruiting radar — on Tuesday, Young announced that Texas had extended an offer to him and entered the mix for his services.
Young is a bit of a new face for recruiting services at this point in the cycle, but he is becoming well known amongst college coaches making their way through East Texas.
Young’s stock has been taking off, as he is now up to 18 reported offers following the Longhorns enter the race. Since the beginning of the year, Young has received offers from Houston, Louisiana Tech, Michigan, Missouri, Notre Dame, Oklahoma State, Purdue, Texas State, and Tulane.
