The Huskies and Chris Petersen got tremendous news on the verge of their gigantic Apple Cup matchup with Washington State as they received a commitment from Class of 2021 QB Sam Huard. Sam is the son of former Husky QB Damon Huard and the nephew of former Husky QB Brock Huard. He is rated as a 5 star and the top pocket passer in the 2021 Class by the 247 Sports composite rankings.
This move was not unexpected after Washington officially offered Huard a few weeks ago but it’s nice to have it “official”. Obviously there is a ton of time remaining before Huard puts pen to paper but given the family ties and UW clearly being Sam’s dream school it would take a stunning turn of events for him to change his mind and end up somewhere else.
