Class of 2025 wide receiver Davion Chandler has flipped his commitment from Illinois to Indiana, he has announced.
“After lots of thoughts and prayers I have decided to decommit from Illinois and flip my commitment to Indiana,” he wrote in an X post.
An Indianapolis product, who just committed to Illinois a couple weeks ago, Chandler was on a previously planned official visit to IU this weekend.
The 6-foot and 170-pound Chandler will follow current Hoosiers Donaven McCulley and Omar Cooper as Lawrence North H.S. standout wide receivers who chose to play in Bloomington.
“With IU it’s very close to home. My head coach went there. They got two receivers from my high school there right now,” he told On3’s Steve Wiltfong. “They were my first offer. Really love it in Bloomington and I don’t think nobody recruits me like them.”
According to the On3 Average, Chandler is a 3-star, the No. 811 overall player in the class, and the No. 129 wideout.
As a junior Chandler had 40 receptions, 779 yards and 13 touchdowns. He also returned two kicks for scores and had a rushing touchdown.
Chandler had initially picked Illinois over Wisconsin and IU, and also had offers from West Virginia, Michigan State, Iowa, Vanderbilt, Louisville, Boston College, Kansas and Purdue, among others.
