5-star CB Brandon Arrington taking official visit to Washington this weekend

Washington is getting a shot with the nation’s No. 1 cornerback prospect in the 2026 cycle.
Spring Valley (Calif.) Mount Miguel five-star CB Brandon Arrington announced on X Tuesday evening that he’ll be in Seattle this weekend for an official visit with the Big Ten program.
Arrington has set a July 5 commitment date and a top schools list that includes Penn State, Oregon, USC, Texas A&M and Alabama. Jedd Fisch and the Huskies will look to get involved and make a big splash in the coming days.
Arrington is the No. 9 overall prospect in the cycle, according to the On3 Industry Ranking, a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies. He’s also the No. 1 recruit in California.
He took an official visit to Penn State earlier this month and also has trips to Texas A&M (June 5), Alabama (June 13), USC (June 17) and Oregon (June 20) on the docket ahead of his decision.
“It is going to be a foot race to the end,” Arrington recently told On3’s Chad Simmons. “All five are up there now. Who recruits me the hardest, who gets me on the field early and who I believe can develop me the best will get me.”

April also brought a commitment from Wayne (N.J.) DePaul Catholic four-star quarterback Derek Zammit, the No. 16 signal-caller in the On300.
“It was a lot of things,” Zammit told Wiltfong about why he picked UW. “Obviously Coach Fisch, Coach Dougherty, Coach Losman, obviously they all played big factors in it. Just the relationship … Obviously the coaches, then the offense they run is pretty big and pretty important to me. They run a pro-style offense. Coach Fisch watched my film and showed direct comparison to their offense and the 49ers and Rams. That’s important to me.”
Portland Lakeridge three-star running back Ansu Sanoe has been in the fold since last April and is now the No. 33 RB in the cycle and the No. 2 player in Oregon. Last month brought a trio of commitments from Inglewood, Calif. native and IMG Academy (Fla.) three-star safety Ksani Jiles, Greene’s Mater Dei teammate and three-star safety CJ Lavender, as well as Tacoma (Wash.) Mount Tahoma three-star cornerback Elijah Durr.
Seattle Roosevelt three-star interior offensive lineman Ah Deong Yang and Bellflower (Calif.) St. John Bosco three-star kicker CJ Wallace round out the class, which ranks No. 27 nationally, according to the On3 Industry Team Recruiting Rankings.
