The Washington Huskies dipped back into the Grand Canyon State to extend another offer into the 2028 class, with the latest going to Brophy College Preparatory sophomore cornerback Xavier Sandhu.
At 6-foot-2 and 170 pounds, Sandhu is the 12th prospect from Arizona to receive an offer from UW in 2028, marking the fourth cornerback from the state in next year's class to add the Big Ten school to a quickly growing list of choices.
Sandhu, ranked as a three-star recruit by Rivals, is a traditional outside cornerback with the ability to play free safety. As he continues to add weight to his frame, the determination between being a potential nickel or safety may end up being a net-benefit for Sandhu, and something that could also be intriguing for UW defensive coordinator Ryan Walters and secondary coach John Richardson, who made the formal offer to the rising prospect
With multiple players expected to graduate or be on track to graduate by the time Sandhu arrives on campus at whichever school he ends up signing with, as Arizona, Colorado, and UCLA have also extended offers to him, the schools getting in the race early should have an added advantaged by the time next summer comes around when the three-star athlete is expected to be finalizing his list of schools he's considering.
Given the heavy emphasis on recruiting the Grand Canyon State as Fisch has over the past two classes, aside from the freshmen early enrollees who transferred to UW from Arizona when he made the move north in January 2024, to be one of the first half dozen schools in offering the versatile sophomore defender speaks to how highly the staff is viewing Sandhu despite having two full years of high school football left in front of him.
UW does not have a verbal commitment in the 2028 class and holds a pair of defensive back commits in the 2027 class: three-star St. John Bosco safety and three-star Graham-Kapowsin athlete Maurice Williams, with two more spots available to fill by the time the December early signing day comes around.
