MANHATTAN BEACH, California -- This is perhaps the most consequential week of the 2026 recruiting cycle to date.
From Tuesday night to Thursday morning, 20 of the nation's top high school quarterbacks convened in Southern California for the Elite 11 Finals with five-star passers Dia Bell (Texas commit), Faizon Brandon (Tennessee) and Keisean Henderson (Houston) among the headliners. Also on hand for the nation's premier high school quarterback camp: Landon Duckworth, Oscar Rios and Bowe Bentley -- three of the four uncommitted passers in the 2026 ESPN 300 -- and late risers in the current quarterback class including Boise State decommit Bryson Beaver and two-sport star Matt Ponatoski.
