Devon Young Commits to Texas Tech
Eastside Catholic Crusaders safety Devon Young has committed to play for the Texas Tech Red Raiders. The Class of 2026 standout made the decision after a thorough evaluation of his options. Young's commitment to Texas Tech is largely due to the program's fit with his playing style. The Red Raiders' defense, which features a 3-4 scheme, aligns with Young's strengths as a safety. He also sees an opportunity to contribute immediately, as the Red Raiders' secondary is expected to undergo significant changes this season. Additionally, Young is drawn to Texas Tech's academic program, which offers a strong business curriculum. Young had previously committed to another program but reopened his recruitment in April. He is expected to enroll at Texas Tech in the summer of 2027.
