Jayden Thompson Commits to Texas Tech
St. Marys Blue Devils quarterback Jayden Thompson has committed to play for the Texas Tech Red Raiders. Thompson, a Class of 2026 standout, chose the Red Raiders over other top programs. The 6-foot-2, 190-pound signal-caller excels in a pro-style offense, a system that aligns with Texas Tech's scheme. He projects to compete for a starting role, given the Red Raiders' current depth chart. Texas Tech's strong academic program and resources also made it an attractive fit for Thompson, who maintains a 3.8 GPA. This marks a new commitment for Thompson, who had not previously committed to another program. The Blue Devils will look to replace Thompson's leadership and production in the upcoming season. With his commitment, Thompson becomes the latest West Virginia high school prospect to join the Texas Tech roster.
