Five-Star QB Julian Lewis Stuns College Football World, Flips to Texas Tech Over Alabama, Tennessee
In a shocking turn of events, five-star quarterback Julian Lewis has announced his commitment to Texas Tech, flipping from his previous pledge to Alabama. The decision, which also saw Tennessee as a top contender, has sent shockwaves throughout the college football landscape.
Lewis, a 6-foot-2, 195-pound quarterback from Carrollton High School in Georgia, is widely regarded as one of the top signal-callers in the 2025 recruiting class. Known for his exceptional arm talent, quick decision-making, and leadership on the field, he had long been considered a lock for a powerhouse program like Alabama or Tennessee. However, after an extensive evaluation process, Lewis decided that Texas Tech was the best fit for his future.
“Texas Tech just felt like home,” Lewis said in his announcement. “Coach [Joey] McGuire and the entire staff made it clear that I would have the opportunity to develop and compete at the highest level. Their offensive system is one of the best in the country, and I truly believe I can thrive there.”
Texas Tech has gained a reputation for producing high-powered offenses, and Lewis’ commitment signals a major recruiting win for the Red Raiders. Offensive coordinator Zach Kittley, known for his innovative passing schemes, played a significant role in securing Lewis’ commitment. Kittley has developed multiple elite quarterbacks, and his track record was a key factor in Lewis’ decision.
Lewis had been committed to Alabama for nearly a year, but recent coaching changes and the allure of Texas Tech’s offensive system led him to reconsider. Tennessee was also heavily involved in his recruitment, with head coach Josh Heupel making a strong push to land the elite QB. However, Texas Tech’s vision and commitment to Lewis ultimately won out.
The commitment immediately elevates Texas Tech’s 2025 recruiting class into the national spotlight. With Lewis on board, the Red Raiders are expected to attract more elite talent, particularly wide receivers eager to play
