Garrett Greene Shocks West Virginia: Dual-Threat QB Decommits and Chooses Tennessee Over Georgia, Penn State, and Others…
In a dramatic shift, highly-touted dual-threat quarterback Garrett Greene has decommitted from West Virginia and committed to the University of Texas. The 6-foot-2, 190-pound signal-caller from Charleston, West Virginia, was initially set to join the Mountaineers in 2024 but surprised fans and analysts by switching his commitment to the Longhorns.
Greene, known for his impressive athleticism and playmaking ability, had also drawn significant interest from national powerhouses like Georgia and Penn State. However, after taking an official visit to Austin, Greene decided Texas offered the best opportunity for his development and future success. The Longhorns, under head coach Steve Sarkisian, have established a strong program with an offensive system that perfectly aligns with Greene’s dual-threat style of play.
The decision marks a major victory for Texas and a tough loss for West Virginia, which had long viewed Greene as the future of its offense. Greene’s commitment further solidifies Texas as a recruiting powerhouse, while West Virginia now faces the challenge of finding a replacement for its highly coveted quarterback.
