This now gives Baylor 16 commits in this 2026 class, including CB Jamarion Vincent, WR London Smith, and Safety Jordan Deck.

Clay has a big-time player upside it gives Baylor a true X-receiver who will be able to make those tough contested catches and stretch the field vertically. Wide Receiver coach Dallas Baker aggressive approach to keep top talent in-state has paid off big time with this commitment from Clay.
This recruiting victory over Oklahoma who's known for having a history of dynamic wide receivers like CeeDee Lamb, Marquis "Hollywood" Brown, Sterling Shepard, and Dede Westbrook. And, then Colorado which just had a two-way player in Travis Hunter winning the Heisman and Fred Biletnikoff Award for most outstanding receiver in the country shows a lot about what Baylor is trying to accomplish for the future in Waco.
