Vanderbilt’s crown-jewel QB with five-star arm talent and stay-home swagger
In the 2025 season, Jared Curtis was widely regarded as the nation’s top quarterback prospect in the 2026 class, a five-star, consensus elite recruit who flipped from Georgia to Vanderbilt and became the highest-rated commitment in program history[1][2][4][15]. At 6-foot-3 and around 225 pounds, he brings pocket-passer polish, big-frame durability, and the kind of arm talent and confidence that make evaluators label him a true program-changer[2][3][6]. He also played through an ankle issue in his final high school season, which adds a little grit to the highlight reel[10]. If Vanderbilt wants a face-of-the-future quarterback, this is the real deal.
