Louisiana Tech signee William Mayes brings prototype size to the TE room
At 6-4, 235, William Mayes is a 2026 tight end prospect from Katy’s Obra D. Tompkins High School who has already signed with Louisiana Tech, giving the Bulldogs a big-bodied target with clear developmental upside. He stands out for his frame and red-zone fit as a Y-tight end, and his recruit profile suggests a player built to add strength and become a reliable in-line option rather than a flashy volume receiver. The main question is refinement, but his size, positional versatility, and commitment status make him a solid fit for a system that values physicality and growth.
