Among the early talking points for UW Huskies’ coach Jedd Fisch is his desire to sign “the best recruiting class Washington has ever had” in the 2025 cycle.
The Huskies have five players committed so far:
three-star quarterbacks Dash Beierly from Santa Ana (Calif.) Mater Dei and Treston Kini McMillan from Mililani (Hawaii) High;
four-star receiver Raiden Vines-Bright from Bradenton (Fla.) IMG Academy; three-star offensive lineman Jake Flores from San Juan Capistrano (Calif.) JSerra Catholic;
and three-star running back Julian McMahan from Danville (Calif.) Monte Vista
The Huskies are a geographical outlier in Fegans’ recruitment, as the Alabama native has also scheduled official visits to Georgia, Clemson and Miami — though he did originally commit to USC, as a sophomore, before opening things back up. It would be a coup for secondary coach John Richardson, safeties coach Vinnie Sunseri and Fisch to pull Fegans from the south, considering the competition for the 6-foot-1, 180-pound safety. It might also be an uphill battle. Fegans had nine interceptions as a sophomore at Thompson, which won its fourth consecutive state title that year. Fegans made seven interceptions as a junior.
Former receivers coach JaMarcus Shephard recruited at a high level during his two seasons at Washington, and new receivers coach Kevin Cummings has a chance to take it up a notch in his pursuit of Bell, Lee’s teammate at Mission Viejo. Listed at 6-foot-2 and 195 pounds, Bell caught 56 passes for 644 yards and seven touchdowns as a junior last season. USC will be difficult to beat for Bell’s services, and he also has visits scheduled to Georgia, Ohio State, Penn State and Tennessee. He’s scheduled to be at UW at the end of May.
