Bloomington (Ind.) South four-star safety Daeh McCullough has decommitted from Indiana. The 6-foot-2, 200 pound McCullough had been committed to the Hoosiers since April 2021.

McCullough sent a statement to On3 regarding his decommitment:

I would like to thank everyone at Indiana University for everything they have done for me and my family ever since I was a child.

Second, I want to thank the staff for showing nothing but love to me, along with my whole family as well!

After praying and long talks with my family, I have decided to decommit from Indiana University.

I’ll always love Hoosier nation and wish nothing but the best for the university!

McCullough’s father, Deland, recently took the running backs coaching job at Notre Dame. His two older brothers, Dasan and Deland Jr., are currently enrolled at Indiana. 

Daeh McCullough currently ranks as the No. 208 player in the On3 Consensus, a complete and equally weighted industry-generated average that accounts for all four recruiting sites. He also tabs in as the No. 16 safety, and the third-best player in Indiana.

McCullough Scouting Report

Daeh McCullough is a big defensive back with very good size and length for the position. He’s mainly worked at corner to this point in his career but has the stature to end up as a safety at the next level. He was over 6-foot-1 and 200 pounds with a 6-foot-5 wing-span prior to his junior season. Given how big his frame is, it’s possible he’s not done filling out. The coverage reps and skills he’s developed at corner would help with that transition as well. McCullough is technically refined and plays with some physicality. He’ll need to continue improving his top-end play speed.
