The 6-foot-5, 290-pound West Coast product gave Kyle Flood and the Longhorns a verbal pledge in late June. But only days from early National Signing Day, he decided to de-commit from Texas and join the Huskies.

Mills took his official visit to Texas the weekend of June 14. He chose the Longhorns over Nebraska, Washington, California and Florida two weeks later. Now, Washington is the spot.

Texas still has offensive linemen Nick Brooks, Jordan Coleman, Devin Coleman, and Jackson Christian committed to the 2025 class.

His evaluation from Inside Texas:

“Mills is already a big kid, with near college-ready size at 6-foot-6, 290 pounds and quick feet for a big man. The schools after him are a good tell of his underrated athleticism (Michigan, Cal, Florida, and Texas). All those schools are also programs that like size and mobility at guard, which is where Mills is most likely to end up. In high school he’s a powerful tackle that protects the edge well in pass protection and roots out ends with relative ease. At the next level he’ll have the quickness to be good in the zone running game or as a puller once he’s added the requisite strength.”

Mills is the nation’s No. 455 overall prospect, No. 39 interior offensive lineman and No. 37 recruit from California in the 2025 cycle according to the On3 Industry Ranking — a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies.
