No. 2 QB Jake Nawrot Recaps First Oregon Ducks Visit - On3
2027 Prospect Heights (IL) Hersey quarterback Jake Nawrot breaks down his first Oregon visit and the latest in his recruitment.
www.on3.comHere’s the latest I can share based on recent reporting:
- Jake Nawrot is reported to have committed to Kentucky as a quarterback, according to early April 2026 coverage noting him as a top-ranked QB and Kentucky’s signing news. This marks a significant recruiting victory for Kentucky and for offensive coordinator Joe Sloan.[1]
- Multiple outlets highlighted Nawrot as a high-end prospect with rising status, including mentions of Elite 11 invites and a late recruitment push from programs such as Oregon, Iowa, Florida State, and others before the Kentucky commitment was announced.[6][8][9][1]
- Post-commitment, ESPN’s profile confirms Kentucky as the destination for Nawrot in 2026, describing him as a 6-4, 190-pound pocket passer from John Hersey High School in Arlington Heights, IL. ESPN’s recruiting updates also tracked his status through the spring of 2026 as his recruitment came into clearer focus.[4][5]
If you’d like, I can compile a short timeline of Nawrot’s recruitment from these sources, or pull the most up-to-date local/regional coverage from Kentucky and Chicagoland outlets to confirm any post-commitment developments.
