Virginia Lands First 2028 Commit: 4-Star QB Grayson Clary

Virginia football secured its first commitment for the 2028 high school class on Sunday, when four-star quarterback Grayson Clary of Rabun Gap-Nacoochee School in Georgia pledged to the Cavaliers. The addition gives Virginia an early cornerstone at the quarterback position for a recruiting cycle still more than two years away from signing day.

Clary, rated a four-star prospect, is regarded as one of the top quarterbacks in the 2028 class. His commitment marks the first for Virginia in that cycle and signals the program's intent to build momentum early on the recruiting trail. Rabun Gap-Nacoochee, located in northeast Georgia, has produced multiple Division I prospects in recent years.

The commitment provides Virginia with a potential foundational piece for its future offense, though verbal pledges are non-binding until a national letter of intent is signed. The Cavaliers will look to add more talent around Clary in the 2028 class, while competing programs may continue to pursue him. Further details on Clary's recruitment and Virginia's 2028 strategy are expected to emerge in the coming months.
