The Texas Longhorns landed a commitment and ensuing signature from former Vanderbilt signee Jamie Vinson on Monday.
The team officially announced the signing of 2024 center Jaime Vinson on Monday after he committed toThe Austin native and former Vanderbilt signee decommitted from the Commodores in April and reopened his recruitment as a result. He took official visits to South Carolina, Rutgers and Kentucky last month, but is now staying home.
After playing the first two years of high school at St. Michael's Catholic Academy in Austin, Vinson took his talents to prestigious Oak Hill Academy in Mouth of Wilson, Va., which has been home to multiple big-name players over the years, most notably Carmelo Anthony and former Longhorn Kevin Durant.
This offseason, the Longhorns have added transfer commitments and ensuing signatures from Oregon State's Jordan Pope, Arkansas' Tramon Mark, and Indiana State's Julian Larry and Jayson Kent. Texas' most recent transfer addition was Presley, who committed to the 'Horns in late April. However, Texas had yet to address the hole in the frontcourt before signing Vinson. Though he'll be heading into his freshman season, there's certainly room for him to make an immediate impact.
The Longhorns begin the regular season against the Ohio State Buckeyes in Las Vegas for the Hall of Fame Series on Monday, Nov. 4.
