Steve Sarkisian and Texas have enjoyed a recent resurgence on the field, ripping off four-straight wins over Oklahoma, Kentucky, Mississippi State and most recently a ranked Vanderbilt squad.
With a run of on-field excellence like that generally comes success in the recruiting world, but that was not the case for the Longhorns on Wednesday.
As rated by 247Sports, 4-star senior defensive tackle Dylan Berymon out of Monroe, La. has decommited from Texas and re-opened his recruitment. The Ouachita Parish product committed to the program in early June.
Berymon visited the Longhorns on June 6 and committed the next day before taking ensuing summer trips to see Texas A&M and USC. He visited Texas Tech and Purdue earlier in the year, and the 6-foot-2, 315-pounder also held offers from the likes of Florida, LSU, Miami, Ole Miss, Oregon and Baylor.
A true run-stopper, Berymon is explosive in the middle of a defense and boasts an emerging arsenal of pass-rushing moves. In addition, Berymon also competes in the shot put for his school.
Texas’ 2026 class currently ranks 7th in the nation according to 247Sports and features 20 commits. Berymon was one of five defensive linemen in the class prior to Wednesday.
