The Mustangs lost their third verbal commit of the day when Tyler John Tyler linebacker Tre Allison announced he was changing his commitment from SMU to Syracuse after an official visit to the latter.
"After much consideration, soul searching, prayer, and consultation with my family and mentors I have decided to withdraw my verbal commitment to Southern Methodist University," Allison wrote on Twitter. "I am excited to announce my intent to join the Syracuse Orange football team in 2018."
