Among his top eight are: Arkansas, Baylor, Cal, Michigan State, Nebraska, Oklahoma State, Penn State and TCU. He is expected to announce his pledge on July 9.
Braxton is the No. 276 overall prospect in the 2023 class, according to the On3 Consensus, a complete and equally weighted industry-generated average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies. He ranks as the nation’s No. 27 cornerback and the No. 48 junior in Texas.
