Darian Mensah Named AP Midseason All-America Quarterback
Miami quarterback Darian Mensah was selected as the Associated Press midseason All-America quarterback, and UCLA had the most players, three, on the first team.
Rochester, NY, October 15, 2026 —
Miami quarterback Darian Mensah was selected as the Associated Press midseason All-America quarterback, while UCLA led the first team with three players, according to the available summary of the selections.
The announcement recognizes Mensah at the quarterback position in the AP’s midseason All-America selections. The summary does not provide further details about his performance, the timing of the announcement or the criteria used to choose the players.
UCLA had three players named to the first team, the most of any program. The names and positions of those players were not provided, and the available information does not identify how many players from other schools were selected.
The summary also does not specify which Miami team Mensah represents, beyond describing him as a Miami quarterback. It gives no additional information about the selection process, the other All-America honorees or whether the list includes teams beyond the first team.
The reported selections offer two points of distinction: Mensah was recognized as the midseason All-America quarterback, and UCLA had the largest first-team group, with three players. Further details about the complete roster and the individual selections were not included in the information provided.
