In a stunning development that has sent shockwaves through the college football world, former five-star wide receiver Johntay Cook II announced his commitment to Syracuse University on Thursday.
The news, first reported by Hayes Fawcett of On3 Sports, marks the latest chapter in Cook’s dynamic journey through the NCAA Transfer Portal, as he moves from the Washington Huskies to the Syracuse Orange in the ACC.
Cook, who initially rose to prominence as a standout recruit at DeSoto High School in Texas, began his collegiate career with the Texas Longhorns after being recruited by Steve Sarkisian.
Despite his undeniable talent, Cook’s path has been anything but linear. After entering the transfer portal in last December and briefly joining the Huskies, he re-entered the portal in search of a new home to showcase his skills.
Syracuse, under the leadership of Head Coach Fran Brown, emerged as the perfect fit. The move to Syracuse signals a fresh start for Cook, who brings versatility and playmaking ability to a program on the rise.
