4-Star WR Stephen Sullivan Updates His Recruitment: 'I've Made My Decision'

Saturday will serve as an after-Christmas present of sorts for one lucky school, courtesy of Donaldsonville, Louisiana, wide receiver Stephen Sullivan.

The 4-star standout, a one-time LSU commit, tweeted his top three Monday evening, declaring he will commit to either LSU, Texas Christian or Mississippi State at 5 p.m. CT Saturday at Donaldsonville High School. All three schools are high on the list of the 6'6", 225-pound receiver.

"

I will be making my decision this Saturday December 26 , @DHS 5:00. LSU TCU MSU @JeritRoser @ChadSimmons_ @DeRonTalley

Sullivan, however, told Bleacher Report late Monday that while he publicly has a top three, he privately has closed the chapter regarding his college future.

"I have my decision made already," Sullivan said. "I just haven't told anybody."

Need a hint of where he's going? Sullivan gave one—partially.

"It's a school I've been dreaming about," he said.

LSU fans are hoping they have the dream school. They're hoping Sullivan returns to the 2016 class after decommitting in August to explore other options. TCU and Mississippi State fans are hoping the same thing, as both classes would benefit from a big receiver with 4.47-second speed in the 40-yard dash.

LSU has 16 pledges, including 4-star receiver Dee Anderson and 3-star receiver Da'Monte Coxie. TCU has five junior college players signed, including the nation's top-ranked JUCO receiver, 4-star Taj Williams.

The Horned Frogs additionally have 13 other players committed, including 4-star receiver Isaiah Graham. Mississippi State has 15 pledges in its 2016 class, and while the Bulldogs have athletes and flex tight ends committed, they are still in need of their first receiver pledge.

All three programs seem to fit Sullivan, but he said the decision, while difficult, has been finalized.

"I went on all three official visits and had a great time," Sullivan said. "They were great visits with great atmospheres, and I trust all of the [head] coaches with what they're doing with their programs. It felt right with those three schools.

"But I knew I had to narrow it down. I'm happy with my decision."

Sullivan visited Mississippi State the weekend of Nov. 13 and visited TCU the weekend of Nov. 27. His LSU visit came the weekend of Dec. 11.

The winning school gets a receiver who uses his big frame and solid hands extremely well. He's a good route-runner who likes to make catches in traffic. According to MaxPreps, Sullivan caught 57 passes for 1,159 yards and had 100 receiving yards or more in six of 10 games during his senior season for Donaldsonville.
