Former Washington commit, 2025 QB Jackson Kollock will visit Gophers this month

With the Gophers annual “Summer Splash” recruiting event just over three months away and only more visits getting scheduled, 2025 recruiting is starting to heat up. They currently have zero commits for the class, but dozens of players have announced offers and visits getting set up. Most notably, PJ Fleck has identified a major QB target.

Former Washington commit Jackson Kollock has scheduled a visit to Minnesota for March 28. Other schools he will visit include San Diego State, Cal, Colorado State and Colorado. He is one of seven 2025 QBs to hold an offer from the Gophs, but the first to publicly schedule a visit.

Who is Jackson Kollock

Listed at 6-foot-3, 225 pounds, Kollock resides in Laguna Beach, California playing for Laguna Beach High School. Amidst he junior campaign he verbally committed to Washington on Oct. 23, but when Huskies’ head coach Kalen DeBoer left for Alabama, Kollock de-committed only two days later on Jan. 14.

As a freshman, he attended Rancho Santa Margarita High School, before transferring to Laguna Beach the following year. In his first season starting as a sophomore he was named CIF-SS Offensive Player of the Year, leading his team to an 8-1 record, and their their first CIF title game in 60 years. He completed 66% of his passes for 2,202 yards with 32 TD and 3 INT. Also added 94 yards and 5 TDs on the ground.

Last year as a junior his team went 9-2, getting to to the first round of the CIF Division 7 playoffs. He completed 57.7% of his balls for 3,174 yards with 41 TD and 5 INT, adding 324 yards on the ground and 8 TDs.

2025 QB Outlook

Other QBs w/ Gophers interest

• Zach Lawrence (North Carolina) offer
• Grayson McCain (Wisconsin) interest
• Husan Longstreet (California) offer
• Leo Hanan (California) offer
• Steele Pizzella (California) offer

Under Fleck, the Gophers have typically added one scholarship QB in every class and in this cycle with only two scholarship signal callers on the current roster, it makes it a pretty significant opportunity to add a talented young player to a pretty shallow position group. Recruiting news and notes can obviously change overnight, but Jackson Kollock is a name to monitor at the QB position for the Maroon & Gold.
