Future Focus: Breaking Down the Class of 2023 (Part 1)
Hello all and welcome to Prep Redzone Tennessee. Our goal here is give D2, D3 and JUCO recruits the same coverage we give the Power Five prospects. We also strive to cover younger prospects and bring attention to future stars. With that being said, allow me to introduce our top 2023 prospects.
<strong>[player_tooltip player_id="97700" first="Jordyn" last="Potts"], 6’ 165, QB- Powell</strong>
As you’ll see, there are a few schools with a disproportionate amount of underclassman talent -- none more so than Powell. Potts is the quarterback that brings it all together. Poised in the pocket and naturally athletic, Potts often makes highlight reel throws, even as a sophomore. I’m specifically impressed by the air he’s able to get under his deep ball, it’s one of the prettier deep balls I’ve seen from an underclassman.
<strong>[player_tooltip player_id="97706" first="Jason" last="Foust"], 6’1 190, LB- Powell</strong>
Another Powell standout, Foust is a hard-hitting linebacker that moves well in space. He has time to grow, but he already plays bigger than his size and he’s an imposing defender. Foust has great straight-line speed and the athleticism to match up in the slot with tight ends or receivers.
<strong>[player_tooltip player_id="97705" first="Ayden" last="Greene"], 6’3 180, WR- Powell</strong>
Sensing a theme yet? Powell has an enormous amount of 2023 talent and Greene is special among them. Already a big-bodied receiver, Greene has good speed for his size and can make teams pay over the top. He’ll have time to improve his route tree and separation skills and if he does, he’ll receive more offers in the future.
<strong>[player_tooltip player_id="98164" first="Kenny" last="Minchey"], 6’3 205, QB- Pope John Paul II</strong>
Though he’s just a sophomore, Minchey plays like a savvy veteran, something that’s helped by his 6-foot-3 frame. He throws well on the move and has good legs, both as a scrambler and in the designed run game. His touch passes are typically on point and he has plenty of time to improve his arm strength and show an ability to make some of the more difficult throws in the game.
<strong>[player_tooltip player_id="97704" first="Chance" last="Fitzgerald"], 6’3 175, WR- Nolensville</strong>
The first thing I see when I turn on Fitzgerald’s tape is his elusiveness in the open field, something that doesn’t often come naturally to bigger receivers. Because of his size, Fitzgerald is able to succeed at the catch point as well as fight through arm tackles. He needs to add a bit of weight to his frame, but he’s going to be a hot commodity on the recruiting trail, especially if he continues to get stronger.
