WSU’s class of 2025 grows to 22 members with commitment from CB Gaylon McNeal Jr.

Nov. 13—PULLMAN — Washington State football’s class of 2025 is coming together.

The Cougars’ latest commitment comes from cornerback Gaylon McNeal Jr., who shared his decision on Wednesday afternoon, becoming the 22nd member of the Cougars’ class of 2025. McNeal, a native of Fort Worth, Texas, is WSU’s sixth commit in November .
