As of January 24, 2025, there is no recent news of a four-star wide receiver decommitting from the Tennessee Volunteers in favor of the Texas Longhorns. However, in October 2024, four-star wide receiver Daylan McCutcheon from Lovejoy High School in Texas decommitted from Florida State University and committed to the Texas Longhorns. McCutcheon, standing at 5’11” and weighing 175 pounds, had an impressive high school career with 92 catches for 1,423 yards and 19 touchdowns in his previous season. He initially committed to Florida State in July 2024 but decided to flip his commitment after the Seminoles’ disappointing start to the season.
In other related news, Marquarius “Squirrel” White, a dynamic wide receiver from Tennessee, announced his transfer to Florida State University in January 2025. White, a 5’10”, 170-pound receiver from Pinson, Alabama, had a notable tenure with the Tennessee Volunteers, accumulating 131 receptions for 1,665 yards and six touchdowns over three seasons. Despite injuries during the 2024 season, he managed 34 catches for 381 yards and two touchdowns and served as a punt returner. He is expected to be fully healthy for the 2025 season and will compete for a starting role at FSU.
These developments highlight the dynamic nature of college football recruiting and the significant impact player decisions can have on programs across the nation.
