The 6-foot-3, 275-pound three-star chose the Horns over Texas A&M, Texas Tech, TCU, and Auburn. Hemphill-Woods projects to guard or tackle.

“I am really excited about it,” Hemphill-Woods told On3. “Texas is my dream school, so it means a lot more. It means the world. Also, I got to see coach (Kyle) Flood teach the players, and I loved how he coached and he can develop players.”

He joins Austin Westlake’s Jackson Cook along the O-line haul in 2027.

Hemphill-Woods is the No. 437 overall prospect, No. 30 IOL, and No. 63 rated player in Texas for the Class of 2027, according to the Rivals Industry Rankings.
