Blue-chip CB names Texas in top five schools
Texas has eight commitments in its 2026 recruiting class. They have one cornerback in Hayward Howard Jr. who committed earlier this month. The Longhorns are also heavily in play for another cornerback in four-star Justice Fitzpatrick. Fitzpatrick plays at powerhouse St. Thomas Aquinas in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.
Fitzpatrick plays at powerhouse St. Thomas Aquinas in Fort Lauderdale, Florida and has 43 total offers. He’s the nation’s No. 62 overall player and the No. 7 cornerback per On3’s industry rankings. They have him as the No. 11 prospect in the state of Florida as well.
It was a very productive junior campaign for Fitzpatrick in 2024. He racked up 34 tackles, two interceptions, and seven pass breakups as he aided St. Thomas Aquinas when the Florida 5A state championship. He also received Junior All-American honors from MaxPreps.
Fitzpatrick hasn’t spent a lot time in Austin with just an unofficial visit taken this April. However, he has an official visit locked in for June 13, which gives the Longhorns and opportunity to separate themselves from the pack.
