Four-Star QB Teddy Jarrard Sets July 24 Commitment Among Five Top Programs

Highly sought-after 2027 quarterback Teddy Jarrard, a four-star recruit from Kennesaw, Georgia, is set to announce his college commitment on July 24, choosing between Notre Dame, Georgia, Ohio State, Michigan, and Penn State. Notre Dame currently appears to be the frontrunner for Jarrard, who has shown a strong affinity for the Fighting Irish and has climbed significantly in recruiting rankings, including being ranked as the No. 2 quarterback in the 2027 class by Rivals. Ohio State remains interested in adding a quarterback to their 2027 class alongside already committed Brady Edmunds but may miss out on Jarrard if he chooses another school. Jarrard's decision is highly anticipated as he is considered a top talent nationally, with various rankings placing him among the best quarterbacks and overall prospects for the 2027 recruiting cycle. Meanwhile, Ohio State also continues to pursue elite prospects for future classes, such as five-star safety Bralan Womack and highly rated 2028 wide receiver Brysen Wright, indicating the program's ongoing recruiting momentum. The Buckeyes' focus remains on maintaining their competitive edge following their recent College Football Playoff championship.
