The Texas Longhorns are gearing up for a significant recruiting opportunity this weekend as they host consensus five-star offensive tackle Michael Fasusi, who previously pledged to the Oklahoma Sooners. This will mark Fasusi’s first visit to Austin since committing to Oklahoma in August, a decision made over offers from Missouri, Texas, and Texas A&M.
Fasusi, a 6’5, 295-pound standout from Lewisville, has remained a high-priority target for the Longhorns despite his commitment to Oklahoma. The Sooners’ struggles this season—marked by a 5-5 overall record, significant injuries, inconsistent quarterback play, and underwhelming offensive line performances—have cast doubt on his commitment. The termination of co-offensive coordinator Seth Littrell and the tenuous job security of offensive line coach Bill Bedenbaugh have added to the instability in Norman.
For Texas, securing a player of Fasusi’s caliber would be a significant boost, especially as the program prepares to revamp its offensive line. Offensive line coach Kyle Flood has already landed five linemen in the 2025 recruiting class but is looking for elite talent to bolster the group further. Fasusi, ranked as the nation’s No. 12 overall prospect and No. 2 offensive tackle according to 247Sports Composite, could be a game-changing addition.
This visit could prove pivotal for the Longhorns as they make their case to flip Fasusi’s commitment and strengthen their future roster.
