Overview
- Sales announced his decision Friday on The Pat McAfee Show, choosing Indiana over Texas, Alabama, LSU and Ohio State.
- He is a consensus five-star prospect ranked the nation’s top wide receiver by 247Sports and recorded 37 catches for 794 yards and nine touchdowns as a junior.
- Sales becomes the highest-rated recruit in Indiana’s modern recruiting era and is seen as a major recruiting win for coach Curt Cignetti.
- Texas and Alabama mounted significant late pushes and Sales’ camp continued late NIL and revenue-share discussions, with reports of one final conversation planned with Alabama before the announcement.
- The pick strengthens Indiana’s recruiting momentum, could sway other top in-state prospects, and highlights how televised platforms and NIL negotiations now shape elite recruit decisions.
