It’s likely that Lubno will have to wait his turn before seeing the field for Utah. Byrd Ficklin is set to take over at quarterback next season as a junior, and the Utes also have two other quarterbacks in the program — freshmen Kane Archer and Michael Johnson.
Lubno is the 10th commit in Utah’s 2027 class and the sixth on the offensive side. The Utes have now landed seven commitments in the month of June, boosting their Rivals ranking to No. 12 in the 16-team Big 12 Conference.
