Archer Wilburn commits to Texas football as a 2027 preferred walk-on

Wide receiver Archer Wilburn has committed to join the Texas football program as a preferred walk-on for the 2027 recruiting class. The Dallas native, who attends St. Mark's School of Texas, selected the Longhorns after visiting programs including Miami, SMU, and Oklahoma. Wilburn joins a 2027 class that currently features five-star recruits Easton Royal and Ismael Camara, alongside a group of four-star prospects. He will work under head coach Steve Sarkisian and potentially play with quarterback Dia Bell upon his arrival in Austin. Wilburn is expected to focus on his development over the coming months to position himself for playing time in his debut season. The commitment bolsters the depth of a Texas recruiting cycle that currently holds commitments from multiple highly-rated players.
