Deal committed to TCU on Tuesday after another visit back over the weekend.
Position coach Malcolm Kelly and the Horned Frogs have made the touted WR a top priority in Funky Town.
“I’m excited about playing big-time football at a school where winning has been consistent, and also getting coached by one of the greatest WR coaches ever,” Deal said. “I had a great time this weekend. I’m glad I could see it from my own recruiting standpoint. They did a good job keeping this trip about me.”
Houston, Stanford, and others were finalists behind TCU for Deal, the No. 117 WR in the 2027 class.
Deal is a two-way standout for Naaman Forest at receiver and safety, and is also a multi-sport athlete.

He’s excited to develop under this coaching staff’s tutelage.
“I’m really excited about the development I can receive from Coach Kelly, and the role I would play in Coach (Gordon) Sammis’ offense,” he continued. “The style of the offense is something I’m very familiar with and love playing in. TCU has always been a contender, and this weekend just helped push that a little further.”
