COMMITTED: Texas Tech Football Secures Major Pledge from 5-Star Offensive Tackle Felix Ojo out of Lake Ridge (Mansfield, TX)!
In a huge win for the Red Raiders, Texas Tech Football has officially secured a commitment from one of the most sought-after prospects in the country — 5-star offensive tackle Felix Ojo from Lake Ridge High School in Mansfield, Texas. This monumental addition marks a major step forward for Texas Tech’s 2025 recruiting class and has already sent shockwaves through the college football community.
Standing at an imposing 6-foot-6 and weighing in at 305 pounds, Ojo has been on the radar of top programs nationwide. His rare combination of size, agility, and technical skill makes him one of the most dominant offensive line prospects in recent memory. Known for his explosive first step, powerful hands, and relentless motor, Ojo has drawn comparisons to some of the NFL’s elite tackles and is expected to make an immediate impact at the collegiate level.
Texas Tech head coach Joey McGuire was ecstatic about the commitment, calling it a “program-changing moment.” In a statement released on social media, McGuire wrote, “Felix is exactly the kind of athlete and young man we want representing Texas Tech. His work ethic, leadership, and talent are second to none. We can’t wait to get him to Lubbock and start building something special together.”
The decision came after Ojo took multiple visits to top-tier programs, including Alabama, Texas, Oklahoma, and Georgia. But in the end, the Red Raiders’ vision and family-like culture won him over. Sources close to Ojo say he was particularly impressed by the coaching staff’s commitment to developing offensive linemen and the passionate fanbase that supports Texas Tech football through thick and thin.
In an interview after announcing his commitment, Ojo shared his excitement. “From the moment I stepped on campus, I felt at home,” he said. “Coach McGuire and the entire staff made it clear that they believe in me not just as a player but as a person. I want to be part of something big at Texas Tech, and I know we’re going to shock a lot of people in the coming years.”
Ojo’s pledge is a major boost for Texas Tech’s 2025 class, which now ranks among the top in the Big 12 and continues to climb nationally. His commitment is also a signal to other elite recruits that the Red Raiders are serious about building a powerhouse program capable of competing at the highest level.
Fans took to social media within minutes of the announcement, lighting up timelines with excitement and anticipation. Hashtags like **#GunsUp**, **#TexasTechStrong**, and **#WelcomeFelix** quickly began trending, as Red Raider faithful celebrated the addition of their new offensive cornerstone.
