Missouri 2022 Rankings Update: Quarterbacks

The Missouri Class of 2022 football prospect rankings have been updated and there is plenty of movement with prospects in the rankings. Today we are going to take a look at some of the top quarterbacks in the senior class. <p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 18pt;"><em><strong><a href="https://prepredzone.com/missouri/rankings/2022-rankings/">Click here to view the 2022 Rankings!</a></strong></em></span></p> There are 16 quarterbacks in the Class of 2022 rankings and 35 quarterbacks overall including the watch list. Today we are taking a look at the top five, including two who have committed to Division I schools. (NOTE: For more information on each of the prospects, including links to HUDL highlights, please click on the player’s names to check out their prospect pages.) <strong>1. [player_tooltip player_id="171825" first="Tre" last="Baker"], Lee’s Summit North (Abilene Christian)</strong> The No. 43 player in the 2022 rankings, Baker jumped at the opportunity to play his college football for Abilene Christian in Texas. Baker isn’t the biggest quarterback at 6-foot and 190 pounds, nor the most athletic, but his junior season highlights show a passer with great touch who can deliver the ball where his receivers can make plays. With Lee’s Summit North having a strong group of skill position players this season, Baker should put up some impressive numbers. <strong>2. [player_tooltip player_id="37531" first="Brian" last="Brown"], Lutheran North (Southern Illinois)</strong> Brown, ranked 46th in the Class of 2022, put up big numbers as a sophomore when he led Lutheran North to a state championship and is 20-1 as the Crusaders’ starting quarterback. The 6-1, 180-pounder has plenty of talent around him again this fall and his new head coach, Kyle Wagner, was the team’s offensive coordinator during Brown’s state championship-winning sophomore season. It wouldn’t be a surprise to see the Southern Illinois commitment lead the St. Louis area in passing yardage and touchdowns this season. <strong>3. [player_tooltip player_id="37608" first="Patrick" last="Heitert"], CBC</strong> Heitert, ranked No. 61 in the 2022 rankings, enters his senior season as CBC’s starting quarterback after serving as the back-up quarterback and playing tight end for much of the previous two seasons. A dual-threat quarterback who excels in the pocket, Heitert put up big numbers during his junior season when he became the starter and should again this fall with a strong group of skilled position players surrounding him. Heitert has received a few small college scholarship offers so far, along with interest from several Ivy League schools, but could break out as a senior with more opportunities to show what he is capable of. <strong>4. [player_tooltip player_id="37580" first="Cooper" last="Brown"], Holt</strong> The No. 69 prospect in the updated 2022 rankings, Brown completed 68.5 percent of his passes for 2,057 yards and 32 touchdowns a year ago, which vaulted him near the top of the state charts (and rankings). Holt returns most of the talented position players who caught those passes as well, so the 6-3, 210-pounder should have another big season. Brown is a player who continues to get better and, with a few small college offers at this point, should impress more schools with another strong season this fall. <strong>5. [player_tooltip player_id="37560" first="Caden" last="Burks"], Parkview</strong> Burks, the No. 76 prospect in the 2022 rankings, is a 6-3, 215-pounder who may be the most athletic quarterback in Missouri’s talented 2022 class. He’s a dynamic playmaker who can beat teams with his arm or his legs and has the ability to make plays outside of the pocket after scrambling. Burks received his first Division I scholarship offer from Northern Iowa in late June and should attract plenty of attention this fall, especially with size and athletic ability that could translate into success at other positions. <strong>Next five:</strong> <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="96166" first="Dagen" last="Kenslow"], West Plains</strong> <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="103093" first="Luke" last="Johnston"], St. Louis University High</strong> <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="172435" first="Caron" last="Spann"], St. Mary’s</strong> <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="96820" first="Trayvon" last="Thomas"], Hayti</strong> <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="96125" first="Brockton" last="McLaughlin"], Osage</strong> <p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 14pt;"><strong>2022 Rankings Update Positional Breakdowns</strong></span></p> <a href="https://prepredzone.com/2021/08/missouri-2022-rankings-update-quarterbacks/">Quarterbacks</a> | <a href="https://prepredzone.com/2021/08/missouri-2022-rankings-update-runningbacks/">Running backs</a> | <a href="https://prepredzone.com/2021/08/missouri-2022-rankings-update-wide-receivers/">Wide Receivers</a> | <a href="https://prepredzone.com/2021/08/missouri-2022-rankings-update-offensive-linemen/">Offensive linemen</a> | <a href="https://prepredzone.com/2021/08/missouri-2022-rankings-update-tight-ends/">Tight ends</a> | <a href="https://prepredzone.com/2021/08/missouri-2022-rankings-update-defensive-linemen/">Defensive linemen</a> | <a href="https://prepredzone.com/2021/08/missouri-2022-rankings-update-linebackers/">Linebackers</a> | <a href="https://prepredzone.com/2021/08/missouri-2022-rankings-update-defensive-backs/">Defensive backs</a> | <a href="https://prepredzone.com/2021/08/missouri-2022-rankings-update-athletes/">Athletes</a> <em><strong>You can follow Nate Latsch on Twitter at <a href="http://www.twitter.com/natelatsch">@natelatsch</a>.</strong></em> &nbsp;
