Pensacola Catholic QB Ryan Huff commits to Division I Old Dominion University

Pensacola Catholic quarterback Ryan Huff has made his college commitment.

Huff, after his first season with the Crusaders, announced on Monday on X, formerly known as Twitter, that he has verbally committed to Division I Old Dominion University. Huff said he visited the Monarchs on Saturday, and that’s when he committed before announcing it this week.

The facilities, in Huff’s opinion, are “nothing short of a Power 5” school. “The (coaching) staff just made (his) decision even more sure,” Huff added.

ODU is based out of Norfolk, Virginia, and competes in the Sun Belt Conference in the Football Bowl Subdivision. The SBC also has some relatively close teams to Pensacola, including Troy University and the University of South Alabama.

“I’m really excited to finally have the recruiting process done with. I feel at home with where I’m at. I’m not worried anymore,” Huff told the PNJ. “I’m just focused on my senior year now, and I’m excited to have a great year.”

The offer from Old Dominion came recently on Jan. 31, one of the latest schools to offer Huff. He also held offers from the likes of Samford University, the University of Central Florida, Liberty University, New Mexico State, Ole Miss, Florida A&M and Toledo.

“I don’t think there was any recency bias or anything like that. … Old Dominion just came with the strongest push,” Huff said. “I think I’ll have a great opportunity there compared to some of the other schools.

“I was recruited very hard by Coach (Kevin) Decker, their offensive coordinator. He showed me the place I could have in this offense and the impact I could make on the program. I believe he’s one of the best offensive coordinators in the country, and I believe this program is on the up. I’m just really excited and blessed to be a part of it.”

Huff was impressive during his first year…
