Five-star Washington CB target Dijon Lee sets commitment date

Following his official visits, five-star cornerback Dijon Lee has set a date for his college commitment.

Five-star Dijon Lee, the nation’s No. 4 cornerback according to 247Sports, has set his commitment date for June 28. Lee has narrowed down his choices to Washington, Texas A&M, Georgia, Alabama, and Texas and will take official visits to all five before his decision.

Lee received his offer from the Huskies in February 2023 from Kalen DeBoer’s coaching staff and Jedd Fisch’s staff has made it a priority to keep Washington in the running.

He was in attendance for Washington’s spectacular 36 -33 victory over Oregon in October and will return on May 31 for his official visit, accompanied by his Mission Viejo High School teammate, four-star wide receiver Phillip Bell.

The 6-foot-4, 190-pound recruit is also a standout track athlete who has won back-to-back California Interscholastic Federation triple jump championships. As a junior he tallied 55 tackles, 3 for loss, along with 13 passes defended, 2 interceptions and 1 sack.

On Tuesday, at the On3 Elite Series in Nashville, Tennessee, Lee was asked by ScoopDuck’s Max Torres why he wanted to focus on the group of schools that have made his top five.

“All five schools have great coaches, great cultures at all the places,” he said. “I feel like if I go to any of those schools I will get the best coaching in the nation.”

He continued, describing his toughness and physicality as two of his greatest strengths, along with his tackling ability. Lee excels in press coverage and can get in and out of breaks very quickly player of his size.

Lee finished his chat with Torres with a strong declaration of his talents.

“I feel like you’re getting the best corner in the nation in me.”
