Nebraska football predicted to land four-star Texas linebacker
Thomas is the No. 26 overall linebacker in his class and the No. 45 overall player in the state of Texas, according to the On3 Industry Rankings. The Texas Longhorns were originally thought to be leaders and his recruitment, but momentum has shifted towards the Huskers.

The linebacker recorded 69 tackles last season, to go along with seven sacks, a pass deflection, and a fumble recovery, per statistics from Maxpreps.com.
Nebraska football holds 11 commitments in the class of 2026, but Thomas would give them another four-star commitment. The class itself currently ranks No. 46 overall nationally.
It will certainly be interesting to see how this commitment plays out. Thomas would be another good addition to a solid group of linebackers.
