Four-star DL Ashton Porter announces top schools

Texas is looking to catch some momentum on the recruiting trail for the 2023 class and have been included on numerous top schools lists over the last week.

The latest is by way of four-star defensive lineman Ashton Porter. The Longhorns made the cut for Porter’s top 10 schools alongside Baylor, California, Georgia, Miami, Nebraska, Northwestern, Oklahoma State, Iowa State and Arkansas.

The Cy Ranch (Cypress, TX) product is rated the No. 37 defensive lineman in the country and the No. 46 overall prospect in the state of Texas, according to 247Sports.

He was named a unanimous Texas 16-6A first-team all-district selection as a sophomore. Porter compiled 32 tackles, 11.5 tackles for loss, four sacks and two forced fumbles in 2020.

Recruiting well in the trenches will be a priority for Steve Sarkisian’s staff this cycle.
