2024 recruiting is flying towards the early signing period. Here are the most important QB commitments so far, in my humble opinion.


1. DJ Lagway to Florida

— Lagway was a must-get for Billy Napier after the Jaden Rashada debacle, and he has a bright future. When Austin Simmons reclassified and decommitted, Lagway became even more important and is massive for Napier.

2. Jadyn Davis to Michigan

— Jim Harbaugh needed to close this one out as the North Carolina star was a heavy lean forever but didn’t pull the trigger for what seemed like the longest time. Davis following JJ McCarthy changes the perception of Harbaugh as a QB recruiter.

3. Julian Sayin to Alabama

— He wasn’t on my earlier lists, but with the Alabama QB issues, he’s looking more and more like a massive get for Nick Saban.

4. Walker White to Auburn

— Hugh Freeze needed a big QB recruit in his first full year, and White has a chance to be crucial in this rebuild. He’s honestly the future of the program at the position as the cupboard is bare.

5. Elijah Brown to Stanford

— Troy Taylor needed to make a splash in recruiting as things have become stagnant, and Brown is a massive get. He will bring much-needed skill position talent with him.

6. CJ Carr to Notre Dame

— ND quarterback recruiting hasn’t been elite in recent years, so landing Carr, a Michigan legacy with a high ranking, was huge. You could argue he’s the most anticipated signal caller to head to ND since Jimmy Clausen.

7. Mabrey Mettauer to Wisconsin

— A new head coach, a new OC, and a new offense need an elite QB, and Mettauer has a huge ceiling. The Trevor Lawrence vibes go beyond the great hair.

The Woodlands quarterback Mabrey Mettauer runs for a touchdown during the first half of a Region II-6A Division I area high school football playoff game against Klein Cain, Friday, Nov. 18, 2022, in The Woodlands.

8. Cutter Boley to Kentucky

— Mark Stoops needs to keep elite kids home, especially a QB the caliber of Boley. It would have been a disaster to lose him.

Cutter Boley selected the University of Kentucky as the school he will play football. May 18, 2023

9. Dylan Raiola to Georgia

— UGA recruiting is off the charts, so landing a 5-star QB isn’t a huge deal, but this was still a massive recruiting win.

Chandler quarterback Dylan Raiola throws the ball against Corona del Sol during their game at Chandler High School on Friday, Sept. 9, 2022.

10. Air Noland to Ohio State

— After Dylan Raiola decommitted, the Buckeyes needed to land an elite QB after taking a shot on Lincoln Kienholz a year ago. Noland fits the bill.
