Texas Football Shocks Miami and Florida State by Snagging Elite 4-Star Cornerback—What This Means for the Season Ahead
Matthews was ranked as the No. 70 overall player, No. 9 cornerback, and No. 6 player in North Carolina in the 2026 class. He received All-State first-team honors last season while only allowing seven total passes to be thrown his way all year—pretty impressive.
Shout out to cornerback coach Mark Orphey for assisting the Longhorns in landing Matthews; he built a solid rapport with Orphey back at Rutgers. Matthews mentioned that the Texas coaching staff touts the strongest track record of transforming guys into NFL talent, which was another big reason he picked Texas.
