Texas A&M Aggies Secure 4-Star CB Victor Singleton Commitment

Texas has secured Maryland defensive lineman Lavon Johnson from the transfer portal after he initially committed to North Carolina, providing much-needed depth to the Longhorns' defensive line, which has seen significant departures. Johnson, who played 14 games over two seasons with Maryland, joins other recent transfer additions including Ohio State's Hero Kanu, North Carolina's Travis Shaw, and Purdue's Cole Brevard. His decision follows a visit to Austin and makes him the seventh scholarship defensive lineman to join Texas this offseason, helping bolster a unit that returns only two scholarship players from 2024. Johnson’s arrival is part of Texas' broader efforts to strengthen its roster as they prepare for the upcoming season. The move highlights the volatility and competitiveness of the college football transfer portal. Texas' aggressive transfer strategy aims to keep the team as a strong contender in the coming years.
