Overview

  • Lyons, ranked No. 19 nationally and the highest-rated uncommitted quarterback, is expected to announce his college commitment on Tuesday.
  • On3 analyst Steve Wiltfong estimates BYU’s Name, Image and Likeness offer to Lyons could total between $10 million and $12 million.
  • Oregon offensive coordinator Will Stein has built a close relationship with Lyons and showcased the Ducks’ Heisman-caliber facilities during a recent visit.
  • Although slated to sign with the 2026 recruiting class, Lyons will take a yearlong LDS mission trip and will not play collegiately until the 2027 season.
  • USC, once a top contender due to family ties with Lyons’ brother, fell out of the running after he canceled a scheduled official visit.
