2026 S Zelus Hicks

Quote

Known for his aggressive defense and ability to support in run defense, Hicks is described as an old-school, hard-hitting safety with good speed and change of direction. Hicks ranks as the No. 3 safety in the country and is on the verge of five-star status. His commitment is seen as a significant win for Texas. Hicks has family ties in Texas, including his aunt, Faith Johnson, a notable figure in Dallas. This connection influenced his decision to commit. There’s speculation that Hicks could reclassify to the 2025 class, which would give Texas an even stronger safety duo with Jonah Williams for that cycle. - joe cook

Hell yeah! Welcome Zelus!

This is a recruitment where in the past we might be a hat on the table, but ultimately lose to Georgia, Bama, LSU or even aggy. The SEC move combined with NIL, transfer portal (which so far has helped far more than hurt) and a university President who understands the football programs importance to the entire school...has truly woken the sleeping giant, and he's hungry after a long sleep.

How do you pronounce Zelus?

In Greek mythology, Zelus or Zelos (/ˈziːləs/; Ancient Greek: Ζῆλος, romanized: Zêlos, lit. 'zeal') was the daimon that personifies dedication, emulation, eager rivalry, envy, jealousy, and zeal. The English word "zeal" is derived from his name.
