The 2021 Fall season is just around the corner, with stadiums seeing more attendance and prospects eager to show off the hard work they’ve been putting in this off-season, let’s take a look at some players to keep in mind for this 2023 class.
The top running back for Castle High School will be entering his Junior Season with high expectations coming off a 1500+ yard Sophomore Season. Expect him to continue being the workhorse for the Knights, following his 15 touchdowns for the Regional Champions. With a younger O-Line this season, it will be a test of his durability and his grit. He will be sifting through offers very soon.

Mason Wunderlich | 6’4 220lbs | QB | Evansville Mater Dei | @mason_wunder23
Wunderlich looks like every coach’s dream when it comes to foundational level QB play, he has the size, the IQ, and the heart. His 2020 campaign resulted in 2100+ passing yards with 20 touchdowns under his belt. He is clearly a huge factor for the Wildcat’s success as they will look to him to display that upperclassmen leadership to take them repeat success and ideally another post-season run.

Jaylonn Mitchell | 5’11 165 lbs | QB/WR | Evansville North | @MitchellJaylonn
This multi-faceted player has the ability to breakout this year following a team-leading 480 yards and 4 touchdowns. After some utilization at QB while his team’s starter was out for a few games in 2020, don’t be shocked to see him under center as well. Mitchell has a high ceiling with major upside value, His name will be called out a lot this season.

Devin Mcilwain | 6’1 165lbs | DB | Brebeuf Jesuit | @McilwainDevin
The Braves have a tall order this year after losing their QB to Purdue, but to hold their own on defense is a sleeper pick I have seen a lot of great offseason work of, Devil Mcilwain. His Sophomore Season resulted in 11 tackles and 3 pass breakups, these numbers will only jump higher with Devin’s growth as a player. His speed and monstrous wingspan will be a sight to see on the field this fall.
Ben Decker | 6’6 275lbs | OL/DL | Noblesville | @BenDecker79
Decker is simply put, a monster. His aggressive nature on the field is what you can only hope for in a player. natural athleticism compounded with gargantuan size, he is a force. After a successful camp tour he has picked up major interest, including offers from Central Michigan and Ball State. He has the intangibles of a star lineman for any team, plus a 3.5 GPA to boot. Decker is a rare find that will be a thrilling player to watch as he matures and moves further down his career, expect big things.
