The 6-foot-1, 171-pound Gordon is the No. 1420 recruit in the country for the 2024 cycle. He’s ranked as the No. 75 quarterback in the class and the No. 203 overall prospect in the state of Texas, according to the industry-generated 247 Composite.
Gordon is now the 13th overall commit to pledge to the Bruins in the 2024 class. He is the only quarterback to commit to UCLA during this cycle, but is the 8th offensive player to join the Bruins for this class. Gordon’s commitment moves UCLA up to the No. 53 class in the nation as well.
Gordon has no recorded stats for his senior season, but last year as a junior the quarterback completed 158-of-250 passes for 2157 yards with 28 touchdowns and no interceptions in 10 games. He also added 699 yards rushing, and 8 touchdowns on 84 carries.
