Texas offers 2027 QB Ty Knutson

A host of recruits were on the Forty Acres for Saturdayโ€™s Junior Day, with the staff extending a notable offer to Smithson Valley quarterback Ty Knutson.

The offer comes after months of evaluation by the Longhorns, including co-offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach AJ Milwee watching Knutson in action during his high school football season.

With Louisiana product Peyton Houston committing to the home-state Tigers and Palestine standout Kavian Bryant siding with Texas Tech in early November, Texas didnโ€™t have any outstanding offers to uncommitted 2027 quarterbacks, increasing the importance of Knutsonโ€™s evaluation.

Other offers for the 6โ€™3, 202-pounder include Houston, Oklahoma State, TCU, Texas A&M, and Texas Tech, as well as North Texas, Tulane, UTSA, UTEP, and UTRGV. Some of those offers arenโ€™t committable now, decreasing the legitimate competition in a tough cycle for quarterback recruiting after inking top-10 prospect Dia Bell, the potential successor to Arch Manning.

Knutson is a consensus three-star prospect ranked as the No. 720 player overall and the No. 50 quarterback, according to the 247Sports Composite rankings.
