“See you soon Hawaii”, Murphy responded to the announcement.

Murphy is often compared to Cam Newton and Jameis Winston on the field and produces the leadership qualities that make him a key aspect in the 2022 class.

Some other Texas players that played in the game in the past include running back Bijan Robinson and linebacker Prince Dorbah. Currently, Murphy is the lone Longhorns commit that has agreed to participate in the upcoming 2022 Bowl.

The 2021 Polynesian Bowl was postponed due to COVID-19, but they decided to get it back rolling for next year on January 22, 2022, live on CBS Sports.
