Hailing from Pennsylvania, Sidwar suits up for La Salle College High School in Warrington. 247Sports' composite ranking places him as a 4-Star prospect ranked as the No. 22 quarterback in the nation and the No. 8 player in the state.
He previously committed to Rutgers in July of 2024 before announcing his decommitment in October. Since reopening his recruitment, Sidwar has received offers from several power four programs, one of which was the Tigers in January.
As a junior last season, Sidwar threw for over 2,700 yards with 31 touchdowns on nearly 70 percent completion. His highlight tape is full of NFL caliber throws at nearly every spot around the field, and while he lacks some athleticism as a runner, he is able to buy time in the pocket effectively.
As of now, Missouri does not hold any quarterback commitments for the 2026 recruiting class, so landing a player like Sidwar would be a massive boost. With a tall frame and the ability to work inside the pocket and find himself time, his skill set would likely be a good fit for the Tigers.
