College football QB recruiting intel - latest buzz on visits, commitments and more

As college football settles into the summer recruiting dead period, the quarterback market for the 2025 cycle is largely settled, from elite prospects such as LSU pledge Bryce Underwood, USC commit Julian Lewis and Ohio State-bound passer Tavien St. Clair down to the top Group of 5 commits, including Memphis’ Antwann Hill and Georgia Southern’s Charlie Johnston.

The 6-foot-5, 220-pound passer impressed onlookers with standout showings in the simulated pro day and 7-on-7 action at last week’s Elite 11 Finals, where Washington was the first invitee from the DMV since eventual Heisman Trophy winner Caleb Williams attended the event in 2020.
