CJ Lavender Is A GAME CHANGER For Washington's Defense

Can the Washington Huskies' 2026 football class lead them to a national championship? Jedd Fisch's latest commit, three-star defensive back C.J. Lavender, a standout at Trinity League powerhouse Mater Dei High School, believes so. Lavender's commitment to Washington over Miami, Oklahoma, and Stanford is driven by strong ties with the coaching staff, particularly secondary coach John Richardson and safetiest coach Taylor Mays, and a vision for success. Locked On Huskies hosts Roman Tomashoff and Lars Hanson discuss Lavender's versatile playing style, his strategic development plans, and the influence of fellow recruits like Ksani Jiles and Shaun Scott. Lavender, a self-proclaimed game-changer, is set to be an impact player for the Huskies in the 2026 class.Join us for an engaging discussion on the future of Washington Huskies football and Lavender's ambitious goals.0:00 Intro0:45 CJ Lavender commits to Washington5:18 Building the "Cali wave" at Washington9:00 Players CJ models his game after12:32 CJ's favorite spots in the Seattle area14:20 Outro: Subscribe for more recruit interviewsBecome a Locked On Huskies Insider: joinsubtext.com/lockedonhuskiesLocked On Huskies is part of the Locked On Podcast NetworkSupport Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!NissanTake your adventures to new heights in the All-New Nissan Armada PRO-4X.
