Berymon committed to Texas on June 7 over Purdue. He’s ranked as the No. 216 overall prospect, the No. 23 defensive lineman, and the No. 8 player in Louisiana in the Rivals Industry Ranking. Rivals ranks him as the No. 42 defensive lineman and the No. 18 player in Louisiana.

Texas has defensive tackle commitments from James Johnson, Corey Wells, and Vodney Cleveland.

Berymon Evaluation from Charlie Williams

Berymon is built to eat space. He’s a guy who welcomes double teams, holds the point of attack, and lets everyone else work and eat around him. It’s an unselfish position, but Berymon is tailor-made for it. You talk about a stop-gapper on first and second down or in running situations — this is the perfect piece. He plays with great pad level, delivers a heavy punch at the point of attack, and has some ability to shed blockers. But his strength is in anchoring his gap and doing the dirty work.

Texas rotates its defensive linemen situationally, and Berymon fits right into that system. He’ll be valuable on early downs versus the run and especially key in short-yardage and goal-line situations. His presence in the middle gives the defense flexibility and physicality when it’s needed most.
