FLIP COMMITTS:Longhorns flip Rivals100 WR Daylan McCutcheon from Florida….

On Thursday night, the Texas Longhorns secured a significant commitment in their pursuit of a third receiver for their 2025 recruiting class. Wideout Lucas Lovejoy Previously pledged to Florida State, Daylan McCutcheon has formally retracted his pledge.

McCutcheon, a member of Rivals100, had been committed to FSU since July, but in recent weeks, he has been reevaluating his choice. After his visit to Austin two Saturdays ago to watch the Longhorns play Mississippi State, things started to move further in the direction of Texas. Before formally switching his commitment to Texas on Thursday, McCutcheon will ultimately decommit from Florida State in private on Wednesday.

“Everything began yesterday. I spoke with my folks in the days preceding yesterday. Given the situation at Florida State, I want to achieve all of my objectives. Despite having a fantastic program, Florida State did not seem like the perfect fit, McCutcheon said. “I decommitted yesterday, but this morning I called coaches Steve Sarkisian and Chris Jackson to let them know I intended to commit because, offensively, they provide me a fantastic opportunity to achieve my objectives and succeed. Ultimately, I want to play in the NFL, and Texas offers the best chance to do so.

McCutcheon, ranked No. 96 on the Rivals100, is one of the Longhorns’ wide receiver pledges, along with Jaime Ffrench and Kaliq Lockett. He becomes the 21st overall commitment for UT. Texas is recruiting McCutcheon, who weighs 175 pounds and is 6-0, to play in the slot. He stated that he intends to entirely stop recruiting now that he has committed to Texas.
