Star Search

With the 2016 college football season receding in the rearview mirror, it's time to focus on the stars of tomorrow. And the stars of tomorrow play the same position as the stars of today and yesterday: quarterback. Clemson, off consecutive trips to the national championship game, has one of the top-rated pro-style QBs on the way in 6'4", 201-pound Hunter Johnson. The Brownsburg (Ind.) High star will compete immediately for the spot vacated by NFL-bound DeShaun Watson. Alabama—surprise!—has a top quarterback coming in, and the Tide don't even need a quarterback. Tua Tagovailoa from Saint Louis School in Honolulu is a dual-threat quarterback, and he'll join a team that is led by the standout freshman of 2016—QB Jalen Hurts. Other signal-callers to watch include dual threats Kellen Mond at Texas A&M and Tate Martell at Ohio State. With Signing Day approaching on Feb. 1, go to SI.com/college-football for the latest recruiting news.
