2024 EDGE Keona Wilhite announces decommitment from Washington
Tucson (Ariz.) Salpointe Catholic three-star EDGE Keona Wilhite announced on Sunday that he has decommitted from Washington and will request a release from his National Letter of Intent.
Wilhite committed to the Huskies in September over Arizona, UCLA, Oregon State and a handful of other programs, and he signed with the program in December.
However, after the departure of head coach Kalen DeBoer for Alabama, he is looking for a new home.
“Please respect the Decision I have made, After much discussion and pray with my family I have decided to decommit from UW I want to thank the UW community for all the Love and Support!” he wrote on Twitter. “With that said I am officially reopening my recruitment.”
Wilhite is the No. 627 overall prospect in the 2024 class, according to the On3 Industry Ranking, a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies. He ranks as the nation’s No. 54 EDGE and the No. 13 recruit in Arizona.
