Top-Rated Quarterback Prospect Makes Surprising Commitment Switch
In a stunning turn of events, highly touted quarterback prospect, Deuce Knight, has flipped his commitment from one prestigious program to another. The 6-foot-5, 205-pound signal caller from Lucedale, Mississippi, has opted to join forces with a new team, bolstering their recruiting efforts and dealing a significant blow to his former suitor.
Knight, ranked as the nation’s No. 76 overall prospect and second-best dual-threat quarterback in his class, had initially pledged his allegiance to a storied program back in September 2023. However, after taking multiple visits to his new destination over the summer and early fall, he has now become the fifth-highest rated member of their 2025 class.
This development marks a significant coup for the program, which has been on a tear in recent months, landing an impressive 15 ESPN 300 prospects, including top-100 talents like cornerback Blake Woodby, defensive end Jared Smith, safety Anquon Fegans, and athlete Derick Smith. With Knight on board, the team’s 2025 class is now poised to challenge for the nation’s top spot, alongside powerhouses like Ohio State, Alabama, and Georgia.
The ripple effects of Knight’s decision will likely be felt in the coming months, as his former program scrambles to find a replacement quarterback in the 2025 cycle. Meanwhile, Knight’s new team will look to build on this momentum, as they gear up for a crucial showdown against a top-five opponent in Week 6.
