After starring in high school in Houston, Texas, Matthew Golden initially committed to TCU but later opted for the University of Houston. He was a starter even as a freshman, but was never the primary wideout there. He entered the transfer portal at the end of 2023 and switched to the University of Texas Longhorns.
His only season in Austin saw him lead the offense in receiving yards (987) and touchdowns (9), helping the Longhors to reach their third playoff game before losing to Ohio State, the eventual College Football National Championship winner. He ended with a gaudy 17.0 yard receiving average.
