The 6-foot-6, 330-pounder becomes the fourth 2027 recruit for the Horned Frogs, who have already added three-star quarterback Brice McCurdy, three-star EDGE Drake Carroll and three-star defensive lineman Darrien Neal. Herrera chose TCU over SMU, Arizona State, Arkansas, Baylor, Kansas, Nebraska, Texas Tech and more.
