"Baylor has been leading the way for Rivals300 EDGE Brayden Booth, who has made several visits to Waco dating back to last summer and has very strong connections with multiple coaches on the staff. TCU, Stanford and North Carolina are also swinging away for Booth, but Texas has emerged as the biggest threat to the Bears since issuing an offer last week during a spring practice visit. If a decision were made today, it would be Baylor’s race to lose. The Horns have emerged as a serious contender with traction here," Spiegelman wrote.According to the Composite, Booth is a 6'5", 195-pound four-star prospect. He is ranked as the No. 166 player in the 2027 class and No. 19 edge rusher. Booth holds several marquee offers.Teams like Arizona, Duke, Kansas State, TCU, Texas, Texas Tech, and Wisconsin are all recruiting Booth and would like him to be in their program. But the Bears continue to establish a good relationship with the Texas native and if Joe Klanderman can get Baylor's defense back up and running, the Bears could be a coveted place for big-time Texas prospects moving forward.It could be a good summer for Baylor.
