Vanderbilt football has the chance to put together a standout 2027 recruiting class after bringing in 5-star quarterback Jared Curtis in 2026.

The Commodores recorded their first 10-win season in program history in 2025, finishing 10-3 and just short of the College Football Playoff thanks to the contributions of Diego Pavia and Eli Stowers. The results from that season resulted in landing Curtis as Pavia’s replacement.
