Vargas is the latest class of 2028 quarterback recruit to announce his commitment. College football programs are looking to gain commitments at quarterback earlier and earlier these days.
Vargas is the No. 1 recruit in Massachusetts in the 247Sports composite rankings. The 6-foot-4, 200-pound passer is the No. 1 quarterback in the country and is ranked ahead of Georgia Bulldogs quarterback commitment Jayden Wade.
Georgia was among the elite college football teams interested in Vargas. The Bulldogs offered the five-star a scholarship back in Oct. 2025 after he attended the Georgia-Ole Miss game in Athens, Georgia.
Vargas is a foundational piece to the Buckeyes' class of 2028. The signal caller is Ohio State's fourth commitment in the rising junior class. The Buckeyes and coach Ryan Day have the nation's second-best recruiting class in the 2028 cycle, but we are still over a year away from the early signing period for 2028 recruits, so there's a long way to go.
"Buckeye Nation!!! I’m home," Vargas said via social media after committing to Ohio State. The St. John's star also plays baseball and participates in track and field. Vargas has scholarship offers from Georgia, Florida, LSU, Tennessee and more, but elected to commit to Ohio State.
