Mesquite Horn wide receiver Cedric Lott is one of the more unique players in the 2024 class, because until August 24th, 2023, he had not yet played in a varsity football game.

Usually a rising senior who hadn't played much football would find it hard to get recruited, that's not the case with Lott. Prior to ever taking a varsity snap, Lott held double digit scholarship offers including a couple from Power 5 programs: Boston College, where he committed in late June, and Texas Tech.

Now, Lott has a decision to make. Will he stick with his original pledge and go play college football over 1700 miles away, or will he look for another opportunity closer to home, more specifically in Lubbock, TX? The Red Raider staff is making Lott a priority, and that is surely weighing on his mind.

RedRaiderSports was on hand for Mesquite Horn's opening game at Plano West, where the Jaguars rolled to a comfortable 36-12 win.

Thoughts on his first game: "It felt amazing. First time on the field, kind of still getting a feel for the speed of the game.

I'm looking forward to mainly developing as quickly as possible."
