Florida could get another chance to sign in-state wide receiver Dallas Wilson, a five-star Class of 2025 prospect.

Wilson, from Tampa Bay Tech, signed with Oregon on Dec. 4, the first day of the early signing period. But 247Sports reported Thursday that Wilson has had second thoughts and is asking Oregon to release him from his commitment.

247Sports reported that, according to Wilson’s agency, the receiver will pick Florida if granted his release.

The 247Sports composite ranks him as the No. 4 wide receiver and No. 20 overall player in the class.

Several recruiting analysts had predicted Wilson would flip from Oregon to Florida earlier this month. He had been committed to the Ducks since Jan. 17, 2023, taking an official visit there in June 2024 and to Florida on Nov. 22.

The Ducks are on the clock. Wilson reportedly asked for his release Tuesday, and Oregon has 48 hours to respond.

A 6-foot-3 speedster, Wilson also runs track and was part of his school’s 4×400 relay team that qualified for the state competition in his junior year.

With Wilson on the commitment list, Oregon has the No. 2-ranked class in the nation, per 247Sports, narrowly ahead of Alabama.
