MY TOP THREE

Dermaricus Davis

Washington transfer Dermaricus Davis committed to UCLA last week and told me there wasn’t another program he was interested in other than the Bruins after entering the portal. Davis signed with the Huskies as a 4⭐ recruit before head coach Kalen Deboer left for Alabama but ultimately stayed through the spring. He entered the transfer portal looking for the best opportunity to play and get developed.
“My decision was based on having an opportunity to be developed by a great coaching staff in a pro system that has a lot of NFL experience.” - Dermaricus Davis

Jett Niu

2025 3⭐ Jett Niu (UT) will take official visits to Washington State (June 7-9), Appalachian State (June 13-15), Utah State (TBA) and Arizona (TBA). He told me those are his top schools at this point with BYU staying in contact, though the Cougars have yet to offer. Niu is planning to commit by the end of June.

Elijiah Oehlke

2025 QB Elijiah Oehlke (NC) committed to Wake Forest over the weekend over a group of finalists that included Liberty, William & Mary, James Madison and Elon. He told me he already spoke with commit Cutter Woods (SC) and was made aware of the Demon Deacons’ desire to bring in two quarterbacks in the class. Being two hours away from immediate family and friends was among the selling points for Oehlke.
”Playing for a P4 team in the ACC is dream by many, and to finally see it come to fruition is magical. To be wanted by the entire Deacon family consisting of all the coaches, staff, alumni and fans is something special. A family atmosphere, a chance to compete early, a home away from home and a world-class degree were paramount. I'm an apex predator. I'm going to give WF everything I've got in me. I've been competing my whole life.” - Elijiah Oehlke
