Hampton had a previous commitment to Baylor. He had been committed to Texas since February.

Hampton told On3’s Hayes Fawcett the following upon his decommitment.

“First off, I would like to thank the Longhorn fan base for welcoming me in with open arms and allowing me to be a Longhorn. I have always loved Austin, Texas and being a Longhorn has been a dream of mine since I was younger.”

“Secondly, I would like to re-open my recruitment and take all my official/ unofficial visits. With that being said, I will be decommitting from the University of Texas.”

“It’s still a school that I will heavily consider, but I think it’s the best choice at the moment. This opportunity has meant a lot to me and this is by far the hardest decision I have made in my life.”

“I feel that I should enjoy the process a little more and make my “final decision” some time close to signing day. Thank you coach Sark, coach Gideon, and the rest of the coaching staff for believing in my abilities, offering me a scholarship, and an opportunity to play at the University of Texas.”

Hampton recently suffered an ankle injury during Daingerfield’s season. He is rated as the No. 59 player in the country, the No. 11 wide receiver, and the No. 11 prospect in Texas according to the On3 Consensus.

On3 ranks Hampton as the No. 152 player in the country, the No. 20 wide receiver, and the No. 27 prospect in Texas.

Texas currently has 2024 commitments from Houston (Texas) Clear Lake wide receiver Hunter Moddon and Aledo (Texas) defensive back Jaden Allen. It is currently the No. 11 class in the country according to the On3 Consensus Team Rankings and the No. 1 class in the Big 12 conference.
