612QBs Camp: Best 2026 QBs

612QBs has grown from a small regional QB development program to a bonafide college pipeline for some of the Midwest's best gunslingers. I had the pleasure of attending their 2025 camp, and I was blown away. Over 140+ high-caliber athletes from 4 classes and 3 states, complete with a handful of coaches from multiple levels of college football. And the athletes came to play. There were a ton of standouts, and I have a bunch of incoming senior QBs who stood out to me in particular.    The biggest winner of the day was hands down Wisconsin standout Nick Stellrecht. A built three-sport athlete who attracted a TON of attention throughout the camp, Stellrecht has everything you'd look for in a college QB. He's got a rare and promising frame as well as a dangerous arm talent. Stellrecht was able to hit every throw asked of him and could seen frequently showcasing his velocity, both of which led me and others to believe that he had one of if not the top arm talents in the camp. Wisconsin might have a rising star on its hands.     Bobholz had an up-and-down junior season, but he proved that he's improved over the course of this offseason, and had himself a pretty good camp showing. He had a handful of quick route throws that were incredibly attention-getting, because of his stellar ball-placement and great touch. His long balls weren't as impressive, but he did show the ability to make deeper throws downfield. Bobholz's trajectory this offseason is encouraging and it's only March, he's definitely a 2026 who could breakout during his senior year.     The Centennial gunslinger came to play today, and it showed in his performance. Belinske-Strauss took the opportunity to showcase his arm talent, which we don't always get to see. He hit a number of wideouts deep and in stride. His anticipation as a passer has increased tenfold, and you can tell his confidence has grown in the pocket. He leads receivers well on short routes, and while he could put more zip on the ball beneath 7 yards, I think Belinski-Strauss has rapidly made improvements to his accuracy. Statistically, he also put forth a significant amount of work on the ground last year, and I think this camp went a long way in solidifying him as a dual-threat athlete.     I was familiar with Benson prior to the camp, but I thought what he did today did wonders for his recruiting stock. He possesses a true 6'3" frame and looked more technically refined than he did half a year ago. He stood out as having among the best arms in the camp, and showed that he could really stretch the field with multiple deep shots dropped perfectly for the receiver. Benson also boasts a clean and high release point in his throwing motion. You often see athletes take a substantial leap between their junior and senior years, and I think Benson could be on that track.     Matheny lit it up in Wisconsin last season, with a state runner-up and a 2,000 passing yard season to his name. He's got that 6'2"+ frame that makes him an already appealing prospect, but he was also dropping dimes to receivers all morning. Pinpoint accuracy is attached to another one of the camp's top arms, and his success in the dome was instantaneous. He's got stellar touch, can rocket balls on short routes, and dot receivers up from 35+ yards away. This kid has all the potential to cause serious problems at the next level.     I don't know what the odds of a town as small as Braham producing two college-level quarterbacks in two years are, but they can't be high. Lidke's size and arm jumped at me immediately, and rightfully so. True 6'3" prospect with not nearly enough hype attached to his name. A pocket passer with a great arm and a penchant for hitting receivers on the run, Lidke hit windows in virtually every situation he was put in today. Dude looks like an out-state prospect who could turn up during his senior year.     Meyers is a competitor man. I see him at every camp I go to, and every time I see him he manages to improve. I know he suffered a broken wrist last season, but there seemed to be no lingering effects today. He was able to sling with the best kids, which rightfully earned him a spot in the camp's top group. I think his ability to throw off-platform is one of his most underrated abilities. Time and time again he's shown that he can sling it off a little more than one leg while moving, and he's got surprising arm strength for his frame. With a full senior year, Meyers and the Scarlet Knights could be a force.     After talking to a handful of coaches at the camp, it's clear that many share the same love I do for the gunslinger from RJM. Vath has a funky sidearm-throwing motion, but for him, it's super effective. He's a true-dual threat QB, easily among the top ones at the camp, and I think he's made great strides as a passer over the last year. His release is quick and smooth, and I've noticed he's made solid steps in improvement regarding his accuracy. Post-camp, I think Vath is solidly on the shortlist for best QB in AAAAA.     Mapson burst onto the scene during his junior season, and his offseason recruiting has been electric. Two NSIC offers to his name, and a fantastic camp to validate them. Likely the fastest and quickest QB at this camp, Mapson stood out both with his athleticism and his arm. Throughout the day he was consistently among the most accurate of the QB crop, and the touch he put on his deep and intermediate balls was high-level. His stock has been rising tremendously, and I don't see that stopping anytime soon.     To me, Isakson was the diamond in the rough in this 2026 class. Admittedly, I'm not super tapped into the Watertown-Mayer football scene, so imagine my surprise when Isakson showed up and started turning heads. He made several great deep throws across the middle that caught my attention, and overall his arm strength and accuracy impressed me. His mechanics are a lot more refined than I thought they'd be and his mobility caught my eye as well. Isakson is definitely an athlete to keep an eye on next season.
