4-star, 7-foot twins set commitment date, Texas Longhorns in the mix

The Texas Longhorns are now just days away from learning if they have earned commitments from two players ranked within the top 100 prospects in the class of 2026.

Darius and Adonis Ratliff, two 7-foot twins who are four-star recruits, have narrowed their search down to four teams: the Horns, the Arkansas Razorbacks, USC Trojans, and Alabama Crimson Tide.

On Monday, Oct. 20, the twins (who are New York natives) shared that they would announce their commitments on Wednesday, Oct. 22, at noon CT.

While it isn't official that they will go to the same program, it sure wouldn't hurt to have these two super stars on the same roster, especially with Darius playing center and Adonis playing power forward.

Darius is the No. 52 player in the recruiting cycle, followed closely by his brother at No. 86 in the class of 2026.

With both prospects standing at 7-foot-0 and 215 pounds, the pair is already built like collegiate front-court players, and would make perfect additions to a Texas squad that is about to lose a lot of veteran players after this season, with many athlete's hitting the end of their eligibility.

Texas head coach Sean Miller has already shown what his recruiting skills can do for the Longhorns, bringing in a top-25 recruiting class from the transfer portal, including two of his former star players at Xavier. Not to mention, he has already received a commitment from four-star shooting guard Bo Ogden in the class of 2026.

Adding the Ratliff brother's to the upcoming class could perfectly round out an incoming class that could revitalize the Horns' standing on the national level.

While Darius and Adnois are less than two days away from their decision day, it is unclear if there will be a livestream of their commitments.
