With Texas’ having thrown its name into the mix, Ossai now holds 22 offers from programs such as Oklahoma, Texas A&M, Arkansas, Baylor, Colorado and Houston, among others. The Longhorns, Ole Miss, Texas A&M, Arkansas, Colorado State, Houston, Kansas and UTSA have all extended invitations this month alone.
With the Longhorns junior day just five days away on Feb. 25, expect the staff to make an attempt to get the fast-rising prospect on the Forty Acres, along with a massive host of other in-state targets.
At 6’4, 217 pounds, Ossai ranks as the nation’s No. 363 player, No. 18 weak-side defensive end and the No. 47 player in Texas, per 247Sports Composite.
