Washington Huskies Stun Fans With Visit From 4-Star Quarterback

As Washington's recruiting class ranks ninth nationally, the Huskies hope to land promising four-star quarterback Blake Roskopf during his pivotal campus visit.

The Washington Huskies are making waves on the recruiting trail, building on their momentum from last season. With seven commitments already secured, they boast the ninth-best recruiting class nationwide according to 247Sports. And there's potential for that ranking to climb even higher in the weeks ahead.

A key development is the upcoming visit of four-star Class of 2027 quarterback Blake Roskopf, who will be in Seattle for Washington's junior day from March 7-8. Roskopf, a towering presence at 6-foot-5 and 235 pounds, shares the field at Desert Edge High School in Goodyear, Arizona, with current Huskies commit, four-star wide receiver Zerek Sidney.

Roskopf is turning heads as the 203rd-best player in the country and the 11th-ranked quarterback, not to mention the second-best player in Arizona, per 247Sports. His scouting report highlights his rapid rise, arm talent, and impressive pocket presence, despite being a pure pocket passer. His skills have attracted offers from powerhouse programs like Georgia, Ole Miss, Oregon, and Tennessee, among others.

While the Huskies have yet to secure a quarterback commitment for the '27 class, they're in the mix for several top prospects. Four-star quarterback Sione Kaho from Tacoma, Washington, has Washington on his shortlist. Additionally, the Huskies have extended an offer to four-star quarterback Peter Bourque, who recently reopened his recruitment after decommitting from Michigan.

Washington is also vying for commitments from four-star edge rusher Zane Rowe, four-star safety Gavin Williams, and four-star cornerback Josiah Molden. Landing a quarterback would mark the third offensive commitment and the first non-wide receiver for the Huskies.

As of now, Washington's seven commitments include Sidney, three-star wide receiver Braylon Pope, versatile three-star cornerback/athlete Maurice Williams, three-star linebackers Ethan and Justin Coach, Titus Osterman, and three-star defensive lineman Matamatagi Uiagalelei.

The Huskies are chasing the top eight teams in the recruiting rankings: Oklahoma, Texas A&M, Ohio State, Notre Dame, Louisville, Texas, Nebraska, and Georgia. With their 2026 class ranking 12th-the highest in program history-Washington is poised to surpass that milestone if they maintain their current trajectory.
