flipped his commitment from UMass to the University of Delaware. Bell is coming off a career season, throwing for more than 1,700 yards and 29 touchdowns, and he did it while running an up-tempo offense with confidence and precision.
To start, Bell showed he could attack every level of the field. His deep ball improved dramatically, and he consistently hit explosive throws that stretched defenses. Moreover, he made strong decisions, operated with poise, and looked completely in control of Prep’s offense — traits that naturally caught the attention of bigger college programs.
With Bell flipping to Delaware, it’s clear his stock was on the rise. The timing is also notable. Just a week earlier, St. Joe’s Regional star

decommitted from Delaware. Instead of staying idle, the Blue Hens moved quickly and locked in Bell, another high-level Super Conference quarterback.
There’s another interesting layer here. Delaware’s current starting quarterback, Nick Minicucci, also came out of Don Bosco Prep. This tells you the Blue Hens’ staff is extremely comfortable recruiting New Jersey’s Super Conference and trusting its quarterbacks to lead their program.
Ultimately, Delaware is landing a polished signal-caller with room to grow. If Bell continues refining his decision-making and builds on the momentum from his senior season, he has the tools to develop into a very solid college quarterback — and this flip adds major intrigue to Delaware’s future.
After careful consideration and talks with my family and coaches, I have made the decision to decommit from UMass. I am now 100% committed to The University of Delaware 🟡🔵 #GoHens #HENergy @Delaware_FB @UDBlueHens @ryancarty10 @CoachGoldrich @ryanoccc pic.twitter.com/LLjPdYZGtR
