Cade Young Commits to TCU
Oscar Smith linebacker Cade Young has committed to play for the Texas Christian University Horned Frogs. The Class of 2027 standout chose TCU over offers from Virginia Tech and West Virginia, citing the Horned Frogs' 3-4 defensive scheme as a major factor in his decision. Young believes he will fit in seamlessly alongside current linebackers and has been impressed by the depth chart opportunities available to him. Academically, TCU's strong reputation for business and engineering programs aligns with Young's interests. This marks a new commitment for Young, who had previously been committed to Virginia Tech before decommitting in April. Young's recruitment process was extensive, with over 20 offers from Power Five programs. He expects to enroll at TCU in the summer of 2027 and participate in the team's summer camp.
