Alfred now says he will reveal the decision on August 2.
Four-star wide receiver Dillon Alfred has slammed the brakes on a Monday afternoon announcement on where he will play college football.
Alfred had narrowed it down to Ole Miss and Clemson, and he spent the final few days traveling to see both teams.
On Monday, Alfred tweeted: “Over the last weekend (I) visited two great destinations, each distinct and special in their own way. I first considered making my commitment decision today. However, after further consideration, I am deferring my statement until August 2nd.”
Originally scheduled to make his decision public today, Alfred cited the need for more time to consider his options as the primary reason for the postponement. The talented quarterback, who has garnered offers from numerous top-tier programs, including Alabama, Ohio State, and Clemson, stated that this decision was one of the most significant of his life and deserved careful consideration.
Alfred’s recruitment journey has been closely followed by fans and analysts alike, with speculation rife about his potential landing spot. Known for his strong arm and football IQ, he has been a standout performer at both the high school level and in various camps and showcases.
While the delay has left fans and college programs in suspense, Alfred reassured everyone that he would announce his decision soon. In the meantime, the football world continues to speculate and anticipate his final choice, which could have a significant impact on the landscape of college football in the coming years.
