Downing is ranked as the number one wide receiver in the state of Utah according to 247Sports. The second consecutive year BYU has signed a wide receiver from American Fork High School. Last year, the Cougars signed Chase Roberts an Under Armour All-American. Downing garnered interest from Arizona State and a handful of other Pac-12 programs but was always committed to BYU.
