Utah Football and new offensive coordinator, Jason Beck, received some promising recruiting news on Sunday with the addition of 2027 quarterback Thaddeus Thatcher. The brother of Utah linebacker and 2025 4-star linebacker, Christian Thatcher, is talented in his own right. Thaddeus is a 4-star who ranks No. 12 overall in a quarterback group that has yet to be separated between dual-threat and pro-style labels.
As a sophomore at Arbor View HS in Las Vegas, Thatcher threw for 3,271 yards, 34 touchdowns and 10 interceptions with a 63.4% completion percentage.
Thatcher currently has six offers from Utah, Colorado, Purdue, Kansas, Washington State, and San Jose State.
