Isaac鈥檚 performance couldn鈥檛 come as a shock to fans knowledgeable of the quarterback鈥檚 background. Not only is Isaac the younger brother of a former top-five NFL draft pick, but he鈥檚 also a stellar prospect in his own right. The 6-foot, 185-pound signal caller is ranked as the No. 2 prospect in Utah and the No. 20 quarterback in the Class of 2024 by
Given his high standing, Isaac held 19 offers from the likes of Miami, Oregon, UCLA and BYU, Zach鈥檚 alma mater. However, Isaac decided to commit to his home state school, Utah, where his father played.

With an impressive start to his senior campaign, Isaac surely has Utes fans excited for his future. Following a state championship game appearance a year ago, Isaac appears to have a chip on his shoulder this season as he looks to demolish any secondary that stands in his way. Fans across the country should only expect more gaudy numbers from the quarterback as the season progresses.
