One of the top wide receivers in the country has narrowed his list to three. DeSoto (Texas) speedster Johntay Cook is the No. 32 player in the 2023 class, per the On3 Consensus Rankings. Cook is the No. 6 ranked wide receiver per those same rankings.

The 5-foot-11, 171-pounder took an official visit to Oregon last weekend. Cook is currently on an official visit to Texas now. He visited Michigan right after his Oregon trip.

Here is what Cook told On3’s Hayes Fawcett about Oregon from his finalists.

“The new regime is amazing,” Cook said. “Coach Lanning is building something great over there.”

Texas is the overwhelming favorite at the moment in the On3 RPM. The Horns have an 86% chance to land the four-star receiver based on current intel.

On3 Scouting Report

Smooth-moving receiver who is one of the better route-runners in the 2023 cycle. Shows the ability to tempo and toggle speeds within his routes. Can win at all levels of the field. Has long arms with a 6-foot-4 wing-span at 5-foot-11.5. The length helps create a large catch radius. Productive and efficient as a junior while facing top competition at one of the top talent-producing high school programs in Texas. Scored 18 touchdowns on just 38 receptions as a junior. Will need to continue improving on his reliability as a pass-catcher and eliminate concentration drops.
