Texas Pressure
Duece Barrington (24) | 6-0 QB | Jordan High
Barrington is a young promising quarterback who throws a nice ball. He has a nice tight spiral on all of his throws. Shows he can throw the ball deep down the field and still maintain that same nice touch on the ball. I think he will be a name to keep an eye out on and one that we will continually update on.

Landon Godwin (23) | 5-8 QB | Foster HS
Landon has pretty impressive arm strength. Has good touch and can throw the ball 40 yards plus and with great touch. You can tell mechanics and footwork are practiced a lot. I liked his speed also and showed he can also use his legs to run and throw with the football.
Tanner Murray (22) | 6-3 QB | Langham Creek HS
Tanner has some jets and can turn them on at any time. He can torch defenses with his legs or his arm. The proof is in the film. This QB is the complete package with his athletic ability and size. He has been invited to compete at the Elite 11 regionals.
Joseph Wilson (22) | Ath | George Ranch HS
Not a bad athlete, is a speedy receiver who can get loose and, make some big plays happen. A little undersized but his speed and supreme athleticism make him a sleeper. Coaches this guy can light a spark to any offense. Decent route runner and can make yards after the catch.
Braylon Thomas (24) | 5-11 DB | West Columbia HS
UAB has been the first division I college to offer Braylon and it won’t be the last. He is a name to know and look out for in the future. One that we will continue to cover because there is not
All-En 7v7
Jacoby Davis (23) | 5-11 DB | North Shore HS
Jacoby is on a lot of recruiting boards. The most recent offer for this outstanding DB was from Auburn. He is a physical player that can cover the pass just as well as he can the run. Big-time hitter, and can consistently produce tackles and tackles for losses. Big-time recruit. Coaches don’t miss your chance to your offer in.
Kedrick Reescano (23) | 5-11 RB | New Caney HS
Speedy running back with a great build and an elite ability to break tackles. He can make one cut and be gone in a glass. I loved his speed ad his explosiveness out of the backfield and showed he can run in between the tackles.
Roric Hawkins Jr. (23) | 5-10 ATH | The Woodlands Christian Academy HS
Dangerous on the field because of his blazing speed. Roric can take the ball from end zone to end zone in the blink of an eye. He is used as a return man and is a lethal one at that. He has the ability to make people miss, and at running back all he needs is to make one or two defenders miss and he is off to the races.
Caleb Flay (22) |5-10 DB | North Shore HS
Caleb is a DB that has been slept on a bit because of his size but don’t let that fool you about his toughness. Caleb brings the wood on defense and can cover receivers downfield. He shows patience in reading plays and can shed or elude blocks with his speed to break up a play. He can trail receiver’s wells and swat down passes.
Courage Ugo (22) | 6-2 DB | Foster HS
Tall DB with a big enough frame to play OLB or SS. I can see this guy coming downhill to light people up at the strong safety position. In his film, he showed to be a physical defender and used his size and wingspan to his advantage. Definitely a player on my list that could raise his stock this off-season during the 7 on 7 season that is before us.
Sanatana Wilson (23) | 5-10 WR | Hightower HS
Sanatana is one of my most favorite underrated DBs on this list. He is just physical and fast. He’s got everything you’d love to see skill-wise at that position in Wilson. He shows a tough, physical nature, and is always looking to make a play on the ball. Fully, pass knockdown or interception. He can do it all.
Dylan Rogers (23) | 6-3 LB | Cypress-Woods HS
Big defender at 6-3 and for a linebacker with his speed, it’s pretty impressive. He has a big bulky frame and has a great pursuit to the ball. I would line him up at the defensive end and let him come off the edge for you. But as a middle linebacker, he shows he can read plays and make a play on the ball.
Kaleb Black Kaleb Black 5'10" | 160 lbs | WR Klein Oak | 2023 State TX (23) | 5-10 WR | Klien Oaks HS
Kaleb has been very impressive at the tournaments and he is spring why he is emerging as one of the top prospects. He has dangerous speed and route running ability. He flashes impressive timing and an incredible burst of the ball. He can stop on a dime and makes a good target for a QB because he is constantly working to get open and never stops running. He plays much bigger than his current height because of his athletic ability and vertical ability to catch the football at the apex.
Texas Furry 7v7
Mabrey Mettauer (24) | 6-5 QB | The Woodlands HS
Mabrey has just received his first division offer from Georgia Tech University. I believe the first of many to come for this great young quarterback. This is a QB who will add a few stars to his name and be one of the top recruits in his class. Coaches don’t wait before it’s too late to get your offer in or start building that relationship. Mabrey will have plenty of options where to go to college in the next couple of years.
Fast 7v7
Jaylon Guilbeau Jaylon Guilbeau 5'11" | 175 lbs | DB Memorial | 2022 State TX (22) | 6-0 DB | Memorial High HS
Lockdown DB is one of the best on the list. He can press the line of scrimmage and jam up receivers. Throwing them off their routes or taking them out completely. He can trail and hang with the best of them. Solid corner who is a longhorn commit.
Chris Marshall (22) | 6-4 WR | Fort Bend Marshall Hs
Chris has major offers from USC, Texas A&M, and Auburn, and others. All a QB has to do is throw it in his vicinity and he will catch it. He makes circus catches look easy. He has long legs that paired with his speed make him a DBs worse nightmare. His awareness to find the endzone and high point the ball are second to none. It would be hard to say this guy would not be a candidate to have his name called to play on Sundays in the future. Grab the popcorn and enjoy his film.
Jaiden Scott (22) | 6-0 DB | Shadow Creek HS
Another Shutdown DB holds many offers to colleges like Arizona State, Cincinnati, Kansas, and others. He is one of the most physical at the line of scrimmage. He will completely shut down a receiver with his speed and physical nature.
Stephen Gill (24) | 5-10 QB| St.John School
Stephen is definitely a quarterback that can sling the ball. He has good arm and good touch. I think he will continue to grow and progress. Definitely, a name to remember.
Joshua Wiggins (22) | 6-1 DB/ATH | Klien Oak HS
Holds offer too Louisiana Tech, Ole Miss, and Toledo. This is a DB who can produce at high levels and do his job. He has adequate size and speed, and his vertical ability is impressive.
Matthew Golden Matthew Golden 6'1" | 190 lbs | WR Klein Cain | 2022 State TX (22) | 6-0 WR | Klien Cain HS
Speed demon that runs like a cheetah. Pair that with a route running ability that can break ankles and you have one heck of a receiver. He can catch in traffic and has the speed to go untouched into the endzone. Size is adequate but that doesn’t matter. Line him anywhere and he’ll make play after play. Future college stud with the ability to produce right away and be a starter and could even make it to the pros. Holds division I offers at the moment from some like Arkansas Houston, Colorado and others.
Big Play Academy 7v7
Adari Haulcy (22) | 5-11 DB | Fortbend Marshall HS
Line him up with the opponent’s best receiver and he will shut them down. Hardly impresses with his ability to cover the passing game so well. He can play zone or man to man and completely hold his own each play. Great FBS prospect who has a bright future. I am honestly surprised he has flown under the radar a bit, I believe more offers should come for this DB after this article. Coaches watch his film, you won’t be disappointed. Adari currently holds offers to UIW, Kansas, and others.
Lawrence Armstrong (22) | 6-0 WR | Shadow Creek Hs
Overlooked the receiver due to his size I believe. But the intangibles are there. He has speed and a great burst of the line of scrimmage and can get by defenders in a hurry. He consistently showed he could make defenders miss in the open field and make catches in traffic. Look for more on his too come.
Dominick Martin (22) | 5-10 QB | Jack Yates HS
A little underrated because of his size and other factors like level of completion. However, make no mistake this dual-threat QB can throw a very good ball with great velocity. I like his overall athleticism and throwing ability. I think he would fit great into a spread type of offense that mixes it up with QB runs and RPOs. Dont sleep on this guy, he could be a steal of a prospect for a good DII or DIII.
