Jayden Young Commits to UTSA Roadrunners
Jayden Young, a Class of 2026 running back from Lakeland High School, has committed to the University of Texas at San Antonio Roadrunners. Young, a standout performer for the 7A Lakeland Dreadnaughts, chose UTSA over other Division I offers. The 5-foot-10, 180-pound back cited the Roadrunners' high-powered offense, which features a spread scheme that suits his skillset, as a major factor in his decision. Young also praised UTSA's athletic department for its commitment to player development and its strong academic programs. This marks Young's first commitment, as he previously held offers from several top programs. With his commitment, UTSA gains a talented back who is expected to contribute immediately. Young's recruitment process was notable for its speed, as he committed just a few months into his senior year.
