11. Thabo Mwaniki

Position: Safety

Signing Time: 7:23 a.m. CT

Hometown: Denton, TX

High School: Guyer

Size: 5’11”, 180 Pounds

247Sports Composite Ranking: Three-Star

One of the most underrated recruits in the 2017 recruiting class, Mwaniki is a name to watch over the next few years with the Pokes. He’ll likely move to the safety position permanently, especially with the loss of All-Big 12 safety Jordan Sterns.

Mwaniki likely got a lower composite ranking because of his size as a high school safety. However, his versatility with his ability to also play on the offensive side of the ball gives him the potential to make his mark on special teams as well.
