Who Is He?

Listed at 6-foot-3, 175 pounds, Russell led Duncanville to a perfect 15-0 record and a state title this past season while throwing for 2,377 yards and 22 touchdowns. He also ran for another 203 yards and three scores.

In the Rankings

It’s still way early in the 2025 cycle, so Russell hasn’t been rated by many of the major services. However, On3 does list Russell as a four-star prospect and the No. 83 player in his class. That makes him the No. 8 quarterback in the class, per On3.

Others Involved

Oklahoma State joins Texas A&M, TCU, Ole Miss, Purdue, Virginia Tech, SMU and others as programs that have offered Russell.

QB in the 2025 Cycle

Russell was the fifth quarterback the Cowboys offered in the cycle, according to 247Sports, but OSU made it six not long after with the addition of Ty Hawkins.
