Here are the top 10 quarterbacks in the updated 2025 On300.

1. Bryce Underwood — LSU commit

2025 QB Bryce Underwood

School: Belleville (Mich.)
On300 Ranking: No. 1

Scouting Summary: Bryce Underwood is the early top quarterback prospect in the 2025 cycle. A top arm talent and plus athlete who is among the more physically-gifted quarterback prospects in recent cycles. Measured at 6-foot-3, 210 pounds with a 10-inch hand the spring after his sophomore season. Owns a big-time arm with the ability to drive the ball with velocity to all levels of the field. Throws a very tight spiral that amplifies the velocity on the tail of his passes. Has shown advanced nuance and skill as a passer early on. Comfortable delivering over the middle of the field from within the pocket. Consistently sticks the ball on receivers against tight coverage. Shows the ability to layer passes with touch and high-level location. Doubles as a run threat with the ability to make defenders miss and pull away at the second level. Has a 27-1 record as as a starter over the first two years of his high school career, leading his school to back-to-back state titles. Completed 65% of his passes for 2,751 yards and 37 touchdowns as a sophomore. Also rushed for 642 yards and eight scores. Very young for the cycle with an August birthday and could technically be a 2026 prospect. Has considerable physical upside and room for continued growth.”

2. Matt Zollers — Missouri commit

School: Royersford (Pa.) Spring-Ford
On300 Ranking: No. 13

Scout’s Take: “I think Matt Zollers has some of the best reactive playmaking skills in this 2025 quarterback cycle. Everything about him is translatable. He’s 6-foot-3.5, 200 pounds. Plus-athlete, big arm. He makes plays on Friday nights that translate really well to making big plays against pressure at the college level. He’s a guy who is a well-rounded prospect, so there’s not really one area where you’re saying that this is a glaring weakness. But I think continual improvement and comparing him, how he stacks up in what is a pretty good class at the top in 2025 for quarterbacks.”

3. George MacIntyre — Tennessee commit

School: Nashville Brentwood
On300 Ranking: No. 17

Scouting Summary: George MacIntyre is a measured in at 6-foot-2, 170 pounds during summer campus visits. He’s a tall signal caller with strong projectable tools as a passer and playmaker. Measured in at around 6-foot-5.5, 185 pounds with a 9.25-inch hand prior to his junior season. Has a tall, wiry build that should continue to fill out over time. Touts a tight, compact throwing motion with little moving parts. The release is whippy quick. Flashes good arm strength, with the ability to flick passes out to the boundary and downfield. Mechanical foundation points to a baseline level of accuracy. A bouncy, light-footed mover within the pocket. Avoids pressure in the backfield, stepping up in the pocket. Capable of making high-level second-reaction plays. Has strong improvisational skills. Shows a long stride in the open field. Doubles as a high-level high school basketball player and received high major looks as an underclassman. Plays a tough schedule, but does not have the production or efficiency typical of an elite quarterback prospect. High school team struggled in his junior season. Will need to continue making strides as a player on Friday night and adding weight to his frame, but has the potential to be one of the top quarterbacks to come out of the 2025 cycle.”

4. Julian Lewis — USC commit

School: Carrollton (Ga.)
On300 Ranking: No. 23

Scouting Summary: Julian Lewis is a polished signal caller who turned in the most productive freshman season among 2026 quarterbacks. Has been touted as a high-profile prospect, earning offers as a middle schooler. Measured in at around 6-foot-0.5, 185 pounds with a 9.5-inch hand prior to his sophomore season. Turned in a strong freshman campaign, completing 65.5% of his passes for over 4,100 yards and 48 touchdowns against 12 interceptions while leading his team to a state title appearance. Played well while facing some of the strongest competition among 2026 quarterbacks. Has advanced accuracy and overall polish at this early stage. Very consistent on a throw to throw basis in the camp setting. Shows the ability to locate passes to several areas, including over the middle of the field. Shows nice touch and ability to layer the football. Navigates the pocket well, sliding up to elude pass rushers. Can make defenders miss in space. Has plenty of time to continue growing, but is not overly physically imposing at this stage. Flashes a good arm, but his upside as a pure, top arm talent remains to be seen. Can also continue improving as a creative playmaker as he gets more varsity experience. Figures to be among the top quarterbacks in 2026 as the cycle progresses.”

5. Tavien St. Clair — Ohio State commit

School: Bellefontaine (Ohio)
On300 Ranking: No. 28

Scouting Summary: Tavien St. Clair is a pure passer with prototypical physical tools that point to one of the higher developmental upsides among quarterbacks in the 2025 cycle. Measured in at 6-foot-3.5, 210 pounds with a 9.5-inch hand prior to his junior season. Made a considerable jump in development during the off-season between his sophomore and junior years. Has smooth and tight mechanics as a passer. Touts a quick release that is easily replicable. Consistently throws a tight spiral. Mechanical foundation makes him a naturally accurate passer. Off to a strong start to his junior season. Doubles as a solid runner who can pick up yards with his legs when called upon. Functional mobility gives him the ability to extend plays. A three-sport athlete, also playing basketball and baseball. Shows above-the-rim bounce on the hardwood. The degree of improvement from his sophomore to junior years is indicative of an ascending prospect.”

6. Deuce Knight — Notre Dame commit

School: Lucedale (Miss.) George County
On300 Ranking: No. 54

Scouting Summary: Deuce Knight is a big left-handed signal caller who is the top athlete at the position early on in the 2025 cycle. Measured in at around 6-foot-4.5, 195 pounds with a 9.5-inch hand prior to his junior season. Registers as a truly elite athlete at the position via his offseason testing and track and field background finishing his sophomore track and field season as one of the top high jumpers in Mississippi. Transfers that athleticism over to the field on Friday nights. Easily eliminates the angles of pursuit defenders as a scrambler and on designed runs. Tough to bring down in the backfield with his size and reactive quickness. Touts a strong downfield arm. Has made progress as a passer from his sophomore to junior seasons. Still developing, but has the upside to continue improving with continued in-game reps. Transferred to Lipscomb Academy in Nashville, Tenn. for the beginning of his junior year before heading back to Greene County just a few games into the season. Also plays basketball. Considered as a very high upside prospect who is just scratching the surface of his physical potential.”

7. Husan Longstreet — Texas A&M commit

School: Corona (Calif.) Centennial
On300 Ranking: No. 78

Longstreet on his game: “I like the quick game, being a playmaker,” Longstreet told Auburn Live. “More of an explosive style. I’ll take the quick play, but if I see someone open deep, I’m going to send it to them. Looking at the way Aaron Rodgers plays, just letting the ball go, that’s what I like to do. If I see them (open) they’re going to get it now. I’m a deliverer. At the same time, I like to lead my team wherever we need to go on and off the field. That’s who I am.”

8. Keelon Russell — SMU commit

School: Duncanville (Texas)
On300 Ranking: No. 81

Scout’s Take: Keelon Russell was at the dials of one of the nation’s top high school offenses, completing 74.1% of his passes for 3,267 yards and 35 touchdowns against four interceptions while leading powerhouse Duncanville (Texas) High to another state title in Texas’ highest classification. There’s no doubt Russell plays with an elite supporting cast a Duncanville, but he put some high-level throws on film while facing strong competition. He’s one of the younger top quarterbacks in the cycle and is a good athlete who can extend plays.”

9. Ty Hawkins — TCU commit

4-star QB Ty Hawkins

School: San Antonio Claudia Taylor Johnson
On300 Ranking: No. 88

Scout’s Take: Ty Hawkins showed playmaking ability both as a passer and rusher as a junior at San Antonio (Texas) Johnson. The TCU pledge is the most productive rusher among the top 2025 quarterbacks, running for 1,079 yards and 15 scores. He was also effective through the air, completing 67.4 % of his passes for 2,239 yards and 25 touchdowns. The 6-foot-0.5, 200-pounder shows good pocket movement and ability to make plays in the face of pressure. He’ll need to continue improving his lower body mechanics in order to maximize his accuracy.”

10. Kamario Taylor — Mississippi State commit

2025 Mississippi State QB commit Kamario Taylor

School: Macon (Miss.) Noxubee County
On300 Ranking: No. 95

Scout’s Take: “There may not be a quarterback in the On300 with a wider range of variance than KaMario Taylor. At 6-foot-3, 195 pounds with 10.25-inch hands, Taylor is far from the most polished quarterback in the On300, but he has one of the highest ceilings with continued development. Taylor was a big-time playmaker for Macon (Miss.) Noxubee County as a junior accounting for 60 total touchdowns (45 passing, 15 rushing) – the most of any quarterback in the On300. He’ll need to hone his consistency, but the flashes and overall playmaking ability on Friday nights point to considerable upside.”
