With a lot of the 2022 freshmen on campus, the natural progression for Devy minds is to figure out who’s next. In the 2023 Rising Stars series, our team started digging into the 2023 recruiting class to look for players who will be household names in the near future.
Jaden Rashada is the 247 Composite QB7, an Elite 11 finalist, and one of the first high schoolers with an NIL deal, but I’m not impressed.
Earlier this week, I published part one of this list containing teams ten to six. Before we get to the second half of the list, here’s my top freshman QB, RB, WR trio for 2022.
We all love a good trio, right? …The Three Stooges, the Houston Astros’ Killer B’s, the Three Muskateers, the Pittsburgh Steelers’ version of the Killer B’s, Harry, Ron, and Hermione,
There probably isn’t a player who was more hyped than Cameron Ward once he entered the Transfer Portal. 247sports sang his praises and college coaches hurled compliments at him(probably in hopes to land him). Ward is a 6’3″ 200-pound QB who transferred from Incarnate Word to Washington State, but who is he?
Isaiah Neyor is a name I’d heard, but I didn’t know much about him until he entered the Transfer Portal. Then he committed to Tennessee, and as a Tennessee hater, I had to see what the hype was about. USC, Ole Miss, and Texas were the other schools to offer him early.
Andrew Paul is a 3-star running back prospect out of Parish Episcopal School in Dallas, Texas. As you can tell by the title, he signed with Georgia as part of their ’22 class. Paul was a Clemson lean for at least a month before choosing Georgia on National Signing Day. How’d he get there?
By now, we all know the quality of class that Ohio State brings in. The wide receivers that want to play for Brain Hartline make up a lot of those classes. Two years ago, it was Julian Fleming and Jaxon Smith-Njigba. Last year, Ohio State added Emeka Egbuka and Marvin Harrison, Jr. This year, it’s the quartet of Kyion Grayes, Caleb Burton, Kojo Antwi, and Kaleb Brown.
Every mock draft you read, real or fantasy, will probably have these QBs in a different order. I remember doing an early superflex rookie mock draft and commenting on how late the 2022 QBs went. To me, they still had so many questions to answer.
If you’ve read anything I’ve written here, you’ve probably picked up on the fact that I love the tight end position. Since I was nine years old, I’ve thought the TE was a mismatch position if used correctly. I’m still convinced that I could lead a TE like Brock Bowers to a Heisman-winning season with relative ease.
