Xavier Worthy has made the decision to stay at Texas despite the tempting offer he received. Reports surfaced that last month, the talented wide receiver turned down a seven-figure NIL deal from a rival school that wanted him to transfer and join their team.

He rejected the substantial NIL deal.

Turning down such a significant offer likely indicates that Texas supporters were instrumental in persuading him to remain in Austin. The era of NIL has unquestionably revolutionized the landscape, prompting programs to go to great lengths to retain their top talent each season.

The players serve as the driving force behind the bustling stadiums and lucrative coaching contracts, making this a fair outcome.

Worthy had an impressive performance last season with 62 receptions for 981 yards and 12 touchdowns. As a former four-star recruit, he is expected to play a crucial role in the Texas offense in the upcoming season.
