Michael C. Johnson-USA TODAY Sports

Defensive tackles are hot commodity in the class of 2016, and another one is off the board as four-star recruit Marcel Southall announced his commitment to Texas.

Southall is the 24th-ranked defensive tackle, and 250th-ranked prospect on the ESPN's Top 300. His imposing combination of size and speed creates a multitude of problems for opponents, and he has a keen ability to stifle the run.

The Texas native officially visited Oklahoma, Miami, and Ole Miss before ultimately picking the Longhorns.
