Summary

Washington is competing for the commitment of Aedyn Havili, a four-star defensive tackle prospect in the 2028 recruiting class. Currently attending Eastside Catholic High School, the 6-foot-2, 320-pound recruit totaled 33 tackles and 7.5 sacks during his sophomore campaign. Head coach Jedd Fisch has prioritized retaining top in-state talent since taking over the program in 2024. Despite these efforts, Washington faces competition from several Big Ten programs, with Ohio State emerging as a favorite in recent reports. Havili and teammate Tytan McNeal are scheduled to attend unofficial visits in Seattle for the Apple Cup on September 6. The university aims to position itself as the preferred destination for local blue-chip prospects throughout the current recruiting cycle.
