Austin Goosby
Bio
Recruiting
Scouting Report
DATA INTEGRITY FLAG: This prospect has been misclassified as a football recruit. Austin Goosby is a 5-star BASKETBALL combo guard in the Class of 2026, committed to Texas men's basketball (Sean Miller) and a 2026 McDonald's All-American. No football evaluation is possible because he does not play football.
Physical Profile
Listed at 6-foot-5 as a combination guard — excellent size for a perimeter basketball player. These are basketball measurables; no football-relevant testing (40, shuttle, position-specific size) exists for him. The football pipeline almost certainly cross-linked him with his older brother, Texas LT Trevor Goosby.
Play Style
Basketball combo guard: scoring lead guard who creates off the dribble, rebounds well for his position, and distributes (3+ APG). No football film exists to evaluate.
Strengths
- Elite basketball production: ~17.0 PPG, 4.8 RPG, 3.2 APG, 1.6 SPG leading Dynamic Prep to a 16-1 start and a top-4 national team ranking
- Top-end national pedigree: consensus 5-star, ranked roughly #18-24 nationally across 247Sports, ESPN, On3, and the Composite
- 2026 McDonald's All-American selection — confirms blue-chip, high-major basketball talent
Areas to Improve
- N/A for football — wrong sport. The recruiting record should be corrected to reflect basketball.
- Pipeline should de-duplicate Austin Goosby (hoops) from Trevor Goosby (Texas football LT) to prevent this cross-link recurring.
College Projection
Expected to be an immediate-impact perimeter contributor for Texas basketball. There is no college football projection for this athlete.
Best Fit
A high-major, guard-driven basketball program — which is exactly where he landed (Texas). No football scheme fit applies.
