Five 2021 Defensive Backs who will get bigger offers

Earning a college scholarship is the goal of any high school athlete worth their salt. Most athletes have aspirations of D-1 glory but especially in terms of football, there are tons of talented players at the D-2, D-3 and NAIA levels. Just getting the opportunity to play past high school is a major accomplishment.  But here are five Missouri defensive backs who have college scholarships and are grateful. But recruiting is a game that never stops and with solid seasons, these players should see their stock rise in the eyes of recruiters. [player_tooltip player_id="37211" first="Collin" last="Tyson"], Platte City (6’, 180) Just watching Tyson jog onto the field, you can tell he is an athlete. The Platte City product has a smooth gait, is effortless in his movements, and plays under control. High-cut with long arms, the Eastern Illinois commit looks for contact and will unleash body blows into the blocker. One of the better cornerback prospects in the state of Missouri, do not be surprised when bigger D-1 programs come calling for Tyson's services before the December signing date. <img class="size-thumbnail wp-image-44111 alignleft" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/redzone/uploads/2020/08/Collin-Tyson-2-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" /> &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; [player_tooltip player_id="37208" first="AJ" last="Snow"], Orchard Farms (6’3, 210) Snow is a Navy commit at the moment and committing to a service academy means a lot to me as an American. That commitment goes deeper than the football field. But as a football player, the Orchard Farms athlete should garner looks from Power Five programs out of the Big 12, Big 10, and even SEC. Snow has elite speed for a player his size, is extremely intelligent and his leadership qualities are that of Fortune 500 businessmen. <img class="size-thumbnail wp-image-44113 alignleft" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/redzone/uploads/2020/08/AJ-Snow-1-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" /> &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; [caption id="attachment_44114" align="alignright" width="150"]<img class="size-thumbnail wp-image-44114" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/redzone/uploads/2020/08/Denver-Parker-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" /> Photo: Jason Schoenig, <a href="https://dirtandturfphoto.com" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Dirt and Turf Photos</a>[/caption] [player_tooltip player_id="37197" first="Denver" last="Parker"], DeSmet Jesuit (5’10, 180) Parker rarely gets to shine in the limelight like his fellow teammates do, but don't let the lack of being a media darling fool you. Parker is a playmaker on the football field and helps make his teammates all better players. The Austin Peay commit started to see his recruiting ascend right about the time of his commitment but with a flourishing senior season, Parker should see P-5 school sniffing around to see how loyal the state champion is to the Governors. &nbsp; &nbsp; <img class="size-thumbnail wp-image-44115 alignleft" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/redzone/uploads/2020/08/Kendrick-Stone-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" />[player_tooltip player_id="37381" first="Kendrick" last="Stone"], Staley (6’2, 175) Finding true press coverage corners in high school is rare but Stone fits the fold perfectly. Using his long arms and legs to jam and run with the receiver is a trademark for the Staley All-State player. Stone must continually work on his long speed, but his physicality at the point of attack makes up for any shortcomings he has in his game. As a willing tackler as well, Stone should see his recruiting skyrocket as he can play corner or safety at the college level. As college coaches scour the country looking for length at CB, Stone's names will continue to pop up. &nbsp; [player_tooltip player_id="37183" first="Ryan" last="King"], Chaminade (6’1, 185) Ranked higher than most publications by Prep Redzone Missouri, King is one of the few players high-level college coaches continue to overlook. Legitimate 4.5 40 high school cornerbacks are diamonds. While everyone claims to be fast, King has track speed and plays that fast on the field. All of his impressive testing numbers (4.12 short shuttle, 34.5 inch vertical jump) translate to the gridiron and is why King will go from holding a few college offers to locking down an exclusive scholarship in the near future.<img class="alignright size-thumbnail wp-image-44116" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/redzone/uploads/2020/08/Ryan-King-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" />
