Elite QB Matt Zollers signs with Missouri Tigers

Royersford (Pa.) Spring-Ford four-star quarterback Matt Zollers has signed with Missouri.

Zollers is the nation’s No. 72 overall prospect in the 2025 cycle according to the On3 Industry Ranking — a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies. He is the No. 8 quarterback in the class and the No. 2 recruit from the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.

On3 is the highest on Zollers of the four major recruiting services. He ranks No. 49 overall in the latest release of the On300.

Zollers chose Missouri on April 4 over Penn State, Pittsburgh and Georgia.

“It went very well,” Zollers said of his March visit to Mizzou. “I enjoyed my time up there, I got to see how all the coaches were in meetings with the players and at practice. I got to spend some time with the players and ask them some questions about how they like things and things like that.”

Zollers missed most of his senior season of high school football with a leg injury. Over his entire high school career, Zollers threw for over 6,000 yards with 70 touchdowns to just 11 interceptions. He added another 16 career rushing touchdowns on the ground.

Zollers has an NIL Valuation of $546,000. The On3 NIL Valuation is the industry’s leading index that sets high school and college athletes’ projected annual value (PAV). The NIL valuation does not act as a tracker of the value of NIL deals an athlete has completed to date. It rather signifies an athlete’s value at a certain moment in time.

Matt Zollers Scouting Summary

On3’s scouting and rankings team writes this about Zollers as a prospect.

“Live-armed quarterback with the physical tools, athleticism and instincts to make him the top reactive playmaker at the position in 2025 entering the senior season. Measured in at 6-foot-3.5, 203 pounds with 9 ⅞-inch hands at the On3 Elite Series prior to his senior season. Was a relative late riser onto the national recruiting scene, by way of a breakout junior campaign. A highly instinctive playmaker, capable of hurting defenses with his arm and legs. Touts a very live arm. Capable of ripping throws to the boundary with velocity. Threw passes well over 60 yards in-air as a junior. Has the arm strength to stretch the field with ease. A bouncy, twitchy athlete who thrives in the face of pressure. Able to evade pass rushers and keep his eyes downfield. Shows strong spatial awareness in locating open receivers with defenders in his face. A tough player who plays through contact in the pocket. Tests as a top athlete in the combine setting and transfers that speed onto the field where he presents a run threat as an improviser and on designed runs.

“Was efficient and productive as a junior, passing for 2,917 yards (10.1 yards per attempt) and 37 touchdowns against two picks. Also rushed for 420 yards and 7 touchdowns. Also plays basketball as a key contributor on a team that made a deep playoff run. Had a bumpy start to his senior season before sustaining a season-ending dislocated ankle. Will need to continue adding consistency with his mechanics and overall polish as he matriculates to the college level. Has a longer backstroke to his throwing motion. The combination of high-end tools and instinctive play style give him one of the higher ceilings among 2025 quarterbacks.”
