The Canes continue to raid the state of Alabama with the commitment of WR Daylyn Upshaw (Phenix City). The 5’11.5, 180-pound Upshaw used sharp route-running and a sturdy to frame to rack up 59 catches for 1,185 yards (20.1 YPC) and 15 TDs for the 7A state champions.



Upshaw, who ranks as a 4-star on the 247 Composite, chose the Canes over Florida, Auburn and Kentucky.



Upshaw is the 18th commitment in the 2025 class, joining QB Luke Nickel, RB Girard Pringle, TE Brock Schott, TE Luka Gilbert, OT Jaden Wilkerson, OT Demetrius Campbell, OG Max Buchanan, OG TK Muex, OC SJ Alofaituli, DE Herbert Scroggins III, LB Gavin Nix, LB Ezekiel Marcelin, LB Elijah Melendez, S Hylton Stubbs, DB Amari Wallace, DB Tim Merritt and CB Chris Ewald.

 

 

No.

Ffreakazoid chose Texas & could subsequently choose UF next.

Texas.

 

I'm shocked Nix hasn't steered him away from Miami

 

Upshaw appears to be significantly underrated.

By far our most underrated recruit. Should be a top 200 player oʻoverall

 

 

 

This recruitment may end up being more significant than we realized at the time. Got PT as a true freshman and has ties to two key recruits in the 2027 cycle.

• Jatori Williams
• Jaden "J5" Upshaw

Bruh the bump

My bad, I forgot its that time of year, when bumps can be scary. I just keep seeing his name floated as an important tie in subsequent recruiting battles.

Seen a lot of buzz on Josh Moore going into next year, I’m looking at Upshaw. Really loved how he looked in super limited reps in 2025. Moore’s ability is huge (size) but I think he needs a lot to become a WR that can run a whole route tree.

No reason Upshaw can’t challenge to be the 3rd/4th WR.
