Troy Huhn, QB

Among the early top priorities at the quarterback position for the Longhorns in the 2026 class this spring is the highly touted San Marcos (CA) Mission Hills four-star Troy Huhn. The blue-chip quarterback from California is one of just two uncommitted prospects the Longhorns have offered at the position in the 2026 class.

Huhn made his second trip to Austin of the offseason for Longhorn City Limits this weekend. On3's Steve Wiltfong reported on April 6 (paid content) that Huhn spent time with QB coach AJ Milwee and Sarkisian while also getting to watch the spring scrimmage on Saturday.

Multiple aspects of the unofficial visit on April 6 impressed Huhn and his family. He reportedly thought it was a "very positive environment" and a "great place to play at".

A couple of successful visits and an offer during the spring evaluation period has helped the Longhorns set the pace among Huhn's top schools this offseason.
