Washington Is TRENDING UP With Several ELITE 2028 Recruits

The Washington Huskies are targeting a 2028 recruiting class that could redefine the Big Ten landscape. Can Jedd Fisch and his staff win out over national powers to land 5-star talents like Jalanie George, Landen Wade, and Tahj Gray? Locked On Huskies host Roman Tomashoff spotlights high-profile battles for elite prospects, including in-state stars Tytan McNeal and Aedyn Havili, while breaking down Washington’s rising influence in hotbeds from Arizona to Georgia.

On the field, standout wide receivers Christian Moss and Rashid Williams spark optimism during fall camp, while the defensive front’s growing depth and communication impressed linebackers coach Brian Odom, who is leading an elite unit headed up by Jacob Manu, Xe'ree Alexander, and Zaydrius Rainey-Sale. Will promising freshmen like Ramzak Fruean, Derek Colman-Brusa, and Jeron Jones seize starting roles? 

Key questions swirl around the running back rotation, linebacker chemistry, and how Washington’s recruiting momentum could fuel a dominant Big Ten program.
