Hudson is the No. 5 overall prospect and No. 3 wide receiver in the 2024 cycle, according to the On3 Consensus, a complete and equally weighted industry-generated average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies. He is also the No. 1 player in Texas.

The Lone Star State native told On3’s Chad Simmons earlier this month that three schools will make his first cutdown. One of them is Texas.

“What keeps me interested in them is it’s just Texas football,” Hudson said. “Texas football is always gonna be known for having great athletes, good football players and things like that. It’s really the culture and that’s pretty much what it is. They(‘ve) got a good coaching staff and they may have lost a few people and things like that, but I do like the staff there.”

The Longhorns currently have three pledges in their 2024 recruiting class. They are Houston Clear Lake four-star athlete Hunter Moddon, Aledo (Texas) four-star cornerback Jaden Allenand Cypress (Texas) Cy-Fair three-star quarterback Trey Owens.

Hudson has an On3 NIL Valuation of $149K. The On3 NIL Valuation is the industry’s leading index that sets high school and college athletes’ projected annual value (PAV). The NIL valuation does not act as a tracker of the value of NIL deals an athlete has completed to date. It rather signifies an athlete’s value at a certain moment in time.

The following is the On3 Scouting Summary for Micah Hudson:

“Dynamic playmaker that you can’t take your eyes off of when you turn on the tape. Can go up and high point the football with ease. Turns hitches, swings and screens into touchdowns. Will run over, through and around defenders with the ball in his hands. Has every tool in the bag when it comes to route running. Ran 11.54 in the 100m, 23.26 in the 200m and jumped a 21’01” long jump as a freshman. Advanced well beyond his years and is one of the best receivers in the nation, regardless of cycle.”
