The Washington State Cougars picked up another commitment for their 2025 class, bringing them to 14, thus far.

Braylan McDonald of Lancaster, Texas announced his commitment to Jake Dickert's program via X, over the weekend. 247Sports ranked McDonald as a three-star prospect and listed him at 5'11" and 185 pounds. He completed an official visit to Pullman the weekend of June 14.

McDonald chose the Cougars over offers from Boston College, Bowling Green, Texas State, Texas Tech, and UTEP, among others.

He was a two-way player in high school, but early indications are McDonald would play safety in college. McDonald also competes in various track and field events, including the 300-meter and 4x400 relay.

McDonald's first chance to sign his NLI will be December 4, 2024.
