​Even though three-star linebacker Titus Osterman is the lowest-rated non-specialist in the Washington Huskies’ 2027 class—according to 247Sports’ rankings—the 6-foot-4, 235-pound prospect is a great fit for defensive coordinator Ryan Walters’ scheme.The product of Kimberly High School in Idaho, who is sitting as the No. 1,475 overall prospect and No. 107 athlete in the class, chose the Huskies over offers from Utah State and Washington State in late January, coming off a productive junior season on both sides of the ball.He compiled 96 tackles, 12 for loss, and blocked a pair of field goals while hauling in 37 catches for 396 yards and 5 touchdowns at tight end. Osterman’s athleticism was also on display with 185 yards and 3 scores on the ground, although his future is clearly on the defensive side.We Home!!!

He also shows off impressive coverage instincts in the middle of the field, but that may not be where Jedd Fisch’s coaching staff views him once he arrives on Montlake.With his size and length, he may wind up playing more on the outside at the next level, as he displays the strength necessary to set the edge against the run, while he can also collapse the pocket as a pass rusher. Looking ahead to his senior year, the promising athlete could find himself rising up the national rankings thanks to his size and physicality.Osterman is one of four linebackers pledged to Odom’s 2027 class, alongside three-stars Ethan and Justin Coach, who both possess the size and length to flex between the inside and outside, and three-star Isaiah Leilua, a true inside linebacker.This article originally appeared on Huskies Wire: Three-star LB is a hidden gem in Washington football’s 2027 class
