Stanford WR Emmett Mosley V sets visit with Longhorns after entering transfer portal
Stanford WR Emmett Mosley V sets visit with Longhorns after entering transfer portal With a spot open at WR, the Longhorns are hosting former Stanford star Emmett Mosley V
After losing wide receiver Freddie Dubose in the transfer portal, the Texas Longhorns have been busy looking for his replacement and may be close to finding a solution. The Longhorns are hosting former Stanford wide receiver Emmett Mosley V for a visit on Friday. He entered the transfer portal earlier this week.
Before choosing to go to Stanford, Mosely V was a three-star recruit in the 2024 class. He received offers from Alabama, Notre Dame, Texas A&M, USC, Georgia, LSU, and Penn State. He will now be looking to join a program where he could be more involved in the passing game.
During his freshman year, the former Cardinal made the most of his opportunities. He hauled in 48 catches for 525 yards and six touchdowns. Mosley V's best performance came against No. 19 Louisville, where he finished with 13 catches for 168 yards and three touchdowns.
While the Longhorns have plenty of weapons, wide receiver is an area they want to add to. On Tuesday, head coach Steve Sarkisian highlighted that position when speaking with the media.
"Naturally, there are a couple of positions depth-wise where we're not where we need to be right now," Sarkisian said. "We'll look at the portal that way. Our numbers are down at receiver right now from a scholarship standpoint. Our numbers are down on the defensive line from where our numbers really should be. And our number's really down at tight end. It's not a secret that we'll look to the portal, but I don't want to take a guy just for a number."
Over the last few years, Texas has been a popular destination for wide receivers. Transfer receivers like Adonai Mitchell and Matthew Golden have gone one-and-done at Texas and boosted their stock leading up to the NFL Draft. As Mosley V narrows his list, the Longhorns will be one of the top programs involved.

SEE IT: Steve Sarkisian and Co. roll out Lamborghinis in Austin amid recruiting camps
SEE IT: Steve Sarkisian and Co. roll out Lamborghinis in Austin amid recruiting camps Texas players have already inked promotional deals with Lamborghini Austin, with running back Bijan Robinson becoming the first to sign such a partnership in 2022. The Texas Longhorns are making headlines again, not just for their play on the field but for their high-octane recruiting tactics. Over the weekend, the university showcased a fleet of Lamborghinis outside its football facilities as it hosted some of the nation's top high school prospects for official visits. The luxury cars, parked in front of the Moncrief Athletics Center next to Darrell K Royal–Texas Memorial Stadium, were impossible to miss as blue-chip recruits arrived in Austin. The spectacle is part of an ongoing trend for Texas, which first rolled out the exotic cars during last year's recruiting cycle. This year's event featured around 14 to 15 top targets from the Class of 2026, including five-star running back Ezavier Crowell and Lamar Brown, as well as four-star edge rusher Jamarion Carlton, cornerback Davon Benjamin and four-star quarterback Kavian Bryant. The display is more than just a photo opportunity. It's a visual reminder of the opportunities available to student-athletes in the Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL) era. Texas players have already inked promotional deals with Lamborghini Austin, with running back Bijan Robinson becoming the first to sign such a partnership in 2022. Since then, other Longhorns, including Jordan Whittington, Jake Majors, Michael Taaffe, and Isaiah Bond, have also driven Lamborghinis as part of NIL deals. While the Lamborghinis have become a social media sensation, the move has drawn mixed reactions from fans and commentators. Some see it as a bold and effective marketing strategy, while others criticize it as a flashy distraction from the fundamentals of college football. Either way, it sticks out to recruits, come to Texas and Texas One Fund connections could net you an NIL deal with Lamborghini of Austin. As Texas prepares for its second season in the SEC, head coach Steve Sarkisian and his staff are making it clear that the Longhorns are willing to leverage every advantage to attract elite talent. Whether the Lamborghinis ultimately translate to wins on the field remains to be seen, but for now, Texas is sending a message to recruits and rivals alike: the Longhorns are back, and they're not afraid to make a statement.
