4-star WR Taeshaun Lyons announces commitment date, final four contenders

The chase for 4-star WR Taeshaun Lyons could get ugly, with Oregon, Washington, and Miami all included in his top-4 schools.

There’s a chance that some feelings are going to get hurt when 4-star WR Taeshaun Lyons announces his commitment later this month.

Lyons, who is ranked by 247Sports as the No. 30 WR and No. 231 overall player in the 2023 class, is down to just four schools in his recruiting process, and three of them have some strong feelings about each other, to say the very least.

The four schools are the Oregon Ducks, Washington Huskies, Miami Hurricanes, and Notre Dame Fighting Irish. We all know about the rivalry between Oregon and Washington, but with Mario Cristobal leaving the Ducks for Miami last year, it’s given Oregon fans a reason to dislike the Hurricanes as well.

Lyons will announce his commitment on December 16, and at the moment, it is the Fighting Irish who are favored to land his commitment, according to the 247Sports Crystal Ball.

We’ll have to wait and see what happens, but get your popcorn ready if you’re someone who likes to watch fans from different schools argue on the internet.

Taeshaun Lyons’ Recruiting Profile

Notre Dame trending for 2023 Missouri athlete, will a commitment follow?

Is the ‘23 class about to grow by one?

It’s been fairly quiet for the Irish on the recruiting trail recently, as their focus has mainly been on the season. That doesn’t mean that the Notre Dame coaching staff isn’t talking with recruits and building relationship.

Case and point with Missouri 2023 athlete [autotag]Jeremiyah Love[/autotag]. During the season, the Irish have only hosted just one prospect on an official visit, California wide receiver [autotag]Taeshaun Lyons[/autotag]. This coming weekend that number should grow a bit with Virginia quarterback [autotag]Brandyn Hillman[/autotag] set to visit South Bend.

However, it’s not Hillman that has a few insiders pondering a verbal, it’s Love who looks to be joining the quarterback on campus this weekend according to this report from 247Sports Tom Loy. Loy, along with Sam Webb, Allen Trieu and Steve Wiltfong all have crystal balled Love to join the 2023 Notre Dame recruiting class.

It remains to be seen when, Loy also notes that he believes that it could very well happen this weekend, but that is still to be determined. What we do know it that it’ does look like the Irish are doing all the right things to ultimately land a verbal from Love.

Michigan State football remains in the running for one of the top wide receiver prospects in the 2023 class.

The Spartans were one of eight teams to be listed in four-star wide receiver Taeshaun top schools list he released on Wednesday. Along with the Spartans was Notre Dame, Washington, Miami (FL), Oregon, Utah, Penn State and Arizona State.

Lyons ranks as the No. 35 wide receiver and No. 283 overall prospect in 247Sports’ composite rankings for the 2023 class. He also is listed as the No. 19 player from the state of California.

As of right now, Lyons is projected to end up at Notre Dame. But there is still time for the Spartans to make a move on Lyons so this is a good sign for Michigan State in the recruitment of this elite wide receiver prospect.
