A quarterback needs to be confident, communicative, and a leader, which makes it all the more impressive when someone underclassmen can play the position so well. We checked out some 2024 QBs we are looking forward to watching as they progress into their sophomore season, and there is a lot to be looked forward to with these players!
Kamari McClellan Kamari McClellan 6'0" | 160 lbs | QB Oxford | 2024 State AL – Oxford High School
Finding a replacement for a quarterback like Trey Higgins is a tough task, but it seems as if Oxford High has struck gold with their successor in rising sophomore Kamari McClellan Kamari McClellan 6'0" | 160 lbs | QB Oxford | 2024 State AL . McClellan plays with great confidence. He doesn’t let the pressure get to him, is willing to take a hit if it means he can make a play, and plays with toughness when he’s scrambling plowing through defenders. McClellan also possesses tremendous arm talent, his release on the ball is fantastic, and he delivers passes with great power and accuracy. This summer, Power 5 schools have been taking notice at camps as McClellan has received offers from Auburn, South Carolina, Florida State, and Georgia Tech. Oxford High is going to be a force to be dealt with this fall with McClellan under center.
Tuli Tagovailoa- Thompson High School
The Tagovailoa family has been building history in Alabama for a while now. Tuli Tagovailoa looks to follow the same path his cousins Tua and Taulia have set as he goes into his second year behind Connor Harrell at Thompson High School. Thompson has a successor lined up in Tagovailoa as he has great decision-making skills, awareness in the pocket, mobility, and possesses an arm that allows him to make a wide variety of passes downfield. Already an impressive player, it’ll be exciting to see another member of the Tagovailoa family progress as a quarterback at Thompson. Having already been offered by Maryland, more will certainly follow due to the skills that Tagovailoa has shown to possess.
Eric Handley Eric Handley 6'2" | 205 lbs | QB Pleasant Grove | 2024 State AL – Fairfield High School
Handley has been a key part of why Fairfield High’s passing attack has become near unstoppable due to the great chemistry he has developed with national recruit Jakobi Albert Jakobi Albert 6'0" | 175 lbs | ATH Fairfield | 2022 State AL . Handley made great strides as a passer throughout his freshman season. Handley has the ability to arch the ball and lead his receivers very well, has good touch and accuracy, and can make great decisions under pressure as well. Handley was just recently offered by Kentucky, and there will be more to follow this fall. With Handley under center and Albert out wide, Fairfield High’s air attack is going to continue to be a force to be reckoned with.
Caleb McCreary Caleb McCreary 5'11" | 185 lbs | QB Montgomery Catholic School | 2024 State AL – Montgomery Catholic High School
McCreary has an absolute cannon of an arm on him, he can effortlessly sling the ball downfield and can make some downright ridiculous throws while under pressure or on the run. McCreary has great touch and accuracy on his ball that allows him to throw it deep extremely well, so much so that the entire passing offense is based around vertical concepts. In addition to that, McCreary has some great mobility that allows him to not only scramble but also run the read-option effectively. McCreary has recently received offers from Arkansas State, South Alabama, Liberty and Troy, and will definitely be lined up for more as he continues to play like this.
