1. Bryce Underwood – LSU
LSU landed the top QB in the 2025 cycle in Bryce Underwood. The Belleville, MI product choose Joe Sloan, Brian Kelly, and the Tigers over multiple schools. Landing him is extremely important for LSU as they enter a QB competition in the post-Jayden Daniels era. Gaining commitment, Bryce looks to boost the QB room and send shockwaves through the SEC, as the Tigers should have the means to stand on top of the SEC with consistent QB play.

2. Julian “Juju” Lews – USC
Julian Lewis stood as the top 2026 QB before reclassifying. The 6-1 Carrollton product committed to Lincoln Riley and the Trojans in August of 2023. Since the start of his recruitment, Julian has been linked to multiple schools, such as Indiana, Alabama, and Georgia. If the Trojans can keep the commitment of “JuJu” it will add to the QB factory Coach Riley has created with Caleb Williams and, hopefully, Miller Moss.

3. Husan Longstreet – Texas A&M
Convincing a top recruit to leave California is a constant struggle. After taking over Texas A&M, Coach Elko has torn up the recruiting trail, landing multiple star prospects. Husan is part of the list. The Corona, CA prospect ranks as a top ten QB in the 2025 class. Pulling Husan to CSAT is a major get, as the Aggies have rotated between decent signal callers since the Manziel Era. If Texas A&M can keep him, it will help mark the start of a new era in South Texas.
Texas A&M QB commit Husan Longstreet will be taking an official visit to A&M June 7-9th.
Add him to the already loaded list. ⬇️

4. Akili Smith Jr – Oregon
Akili Smith Jr is a legacy land for the Ducks. In the late 90’s his father, Akili Smith, played for Oregon before being drafted in the first round of the NFL Draft. Landing a legacy is always a priority, especially if the legacy is a star QB. The 6-5, 200-pound QB ranks as a top 10 signal caller and was recently invited to the Elite 11 Finals. Oregon also lands their future in Smith as having a QB as his dad helps in his coaching and, his development, which should allow him to see the field sooner.

5. KJ Lacey – Texas
Texas stole a recruit from Alabama. Four-Star QB KJ Lacey hails from Saraland, AL, and attends Saraland High School with Alabama commits Antonio Coleman and Ryan Williams. Landing KJ over the Tide is massive for the Longhorns as they enter the SEC, showing they can recruit in states like Alabama and can compete amongst the best in the top conference. If Coach Sarkisian and the staff can keep KJ, Texas will be set up for success as they enter the SEC.
