TCU football’s 2025 recruiting class expanded on Monday afternoon as the Horned Frogs secured a commitment from three-star safety Julius Simms
. Before choosing TCU, Simms had offers from Michigan, Kansas State, and Houston. The 6-foot-2, 190-pound safety from Whitehouse, Texas, is now the 17th recruit in TCU’s 2025 class. Nationally, Simms is ranked as the No. 90 safety and the No. 162 overall prospect in Texas.
Simms’ commitment is significant for the 2025 recruiting class, which previously lacked a defensive back. The Horned Frogs have been focusing on EDGE rushers this cycle, securing commitments from four EDGE prospects, including four-star recruits Chad Woodfork and Jared Martin, and three-star recruits John Schobel and Anthony Williams. TCU’s 2025 class currently ranks in the top 15 nationally, according to the 247Sports composite ratings system.
Simms, who also participates in track and field, played in 10 games during the 2023 football season, recording 56 tackles, three tackles for loss, one sack, one interception, one forced fumble, and one blocked punt. During his sophomore season in 2022, he totaled 59 tackles and one interception.
