The updated Top 150 player rankings for the class of 2026 in the state of Kentucky has been officially published! With that being said, I wanted to take the next week or so to break down these rankings by position. To kick things off, here are our top quarterbacks in the class of 2026 in the state of Kentucky.
Cam O’Hara Cam O’Hara 6’2″ | 180 lbs | QB Cooper | 2026 State KY has continued to establish himself as one of the top overall players in the state in his class. O’Hara had an outstanding sophomore season, completing 239/367 passes for 3,361 yards, 47 touchdowns, and seven interceptions in 15 games. Cam has a very strong arm which he is able to use to lead his receivers down the field and hit them in stride in the deep passing game. He also has shown impressive touch on his passes, showing the ability to put the ball where only his intended receiver can catch it. Cam also scored one rushing touchdown this past season. O’Hara currently holds offers from Kentucky, Western Kentucky, Eastern Kentucky, Miami (OH), Austin Peay, and Tennessee State, and I expect more to come his way as he is a true Power 4 caliber quarterback prospect.
Jaxon Strautman Jaxon Strautman 6’1″ | 195 lbs | QB Frederick Douglass | 2026 State KY is a quarterback that has been on our radar for a while now and continued to stand out this past season. He had a solid sophomore season, completing 116/211 passes for 1,505 yards, 18 touchdowns, and nine interceptions in 12 games. Strautman throws an impressive deep ball, showing the arm strength to stretch the field and ball placement to put the ball where only his intended receiver can catch it. He has also shown the ability to make plays with his legs when needed, finishing this past season with 43 carries for 206 yards and three touchdowns. Strautman doesn’t currently hold any offers but I expect some to come his way soon as he has received some college interest and will continue to lead a high-powered Frederick Douglass offense this season.
Highlights
Mario Litmer Mario Litmer 6’0″ | 175 lbs | QB Highlands | 2026 State KY climbed up our rankings following a solid 2023 season. Litmer split time at quarterback as a sophomore but was impressive when on the field, completing 77/106 passes for 1,110 yards, 20 touchdowns, and only two interceptions in 13 games. He has impressive accuracy, showing the ability to fit passes into tight windows where only his intended receiver has a chance to catch it. Litmer has also shown the arm strength to stretch the field in the deep passing game. Mario also finished this past season with 13 carries for 119 yards and two touchdowns. While he hasn’t received any offers yet, I expect some to come his way soon as he has received some college interest and I believe he has the potential to become a Division I caliber quarterback prospect.
Colin Daniels Colin Daniels 6’2″ | 180 lbs | QB North Oldham | 2026 State KY is a quarterback that has stayed consistently high in our rankings. He played in mainly a backup role for Christian Academy of Louisville last season but was impressive when on the field. In seven games as a sophomore, Daniels completed 16/31 passes for 278 yards, four touchdowns, and one interception. He has shown tremendous ball placement, showing the ability to put the ball in a spot where only his intended receiver can catch it. Daniels has also shown a great feel for pressure, showing the ability to escape the pocket while keeping his eyes down the field to make tough throws on the run. Colin doesn’t currently hold any offers but I expect some to come his way soon as he has received some college interest and should be able to put his talents fully on display after transferring to North Oldham where I expect him to be their full-time starter.
Highlights
To wrap up our top five quarterbacks in the class of 2026 in the state of Kentucky, I have Tyree Stoner Tyree Stoner 5’11” | 175 lbs | QB Christian Academy of Louisville | 2026 State KY . Stoner will be returning to the Bluegrass state after an impressive sophomore season at Charleston High School in West Virginia. Tyree has impressive arm talent, showing the arm strength to stretch the field and accuracy to fit passes into tight windows. While he is impressive as a passer, Stone is just as dangerous as a ball carrier as he has shown the speed and elusiveness in the open field to break away on long runs at any given moment. Tyree has received some college interest and I expect a lot of eyes to be on him this season as he looks to lead a very talented CAL offense.
