Washington Football Freshman Linebacker Turning Heads At Fall Camp

Since Jedd Fisch arrived at Washington in January 2024, the Huskies have made a clear recruiting statement in the 2026 class. According to 247Sports’ Composite, Fisch produced the No. 13-ranked recruiting class nationally, led by in-state commitments including Ramzak Fruean, the second-highest-rated defensive prospect in Washington behind teammate Derek Colman-Brusa. A Hawaii native, Fruean decommitted from UCLA after DeShaun Foster was fired in September 2025. Listed at 6-foot-5 and 235 pounds, the Bethel product has mostly been used as an outside linebacker by coordinator Ryan Walters. Through the first half of fall camp, Fruean and Colman-Brusa are taking high reps with the first team and impressing veterans.
