Later that month, Evans dropped his top 8. Along with UGA, Houston, TCU, Texas A&M, Arkansas, Penn State, UTSA, and Oklahoma made the cut.

July 6th - Evans trims list to 4

Shortly after dropping his top 8, he trimmed the list down to four. UGA, Oklahoma, Texas A&M, and Penn State made the cut. UGA appeared to be in the lead, with Oklahoma and Texas A&M right there.

August 26th - Evans commits to Oklahoma

November 10th - Reports begin to swirl

Around this time, reports began to swirl around Evans and his pledge to Oklahoma. The Sooners have had a rather disappointing season and had already lost numerous commitments at this point of the season.

Dawgs Daily’s breakdown of what Evans is bringing to Georgia:

Evans is ranked as a top 300 prospect according to 247sports composite. Wide receiver has been a significant need for the Bulldogs on the trail in 2023, the addition of Evans brings a unique skill set. In his first class as wide receivers coach in Athens, Bryan McClendon has added many talented pass catchers to Georgia's recruiting class. 

Evans' ability to take the top of the defense while remaining physical at the catch point, all on a 10.3 100-meter body is what forced Georgia to pull the trigger on this Texas addition.
