The Missouri Class of 2022 football prospect rankings have been updated and there is plenty of movement about prospects in the rankings. Today we are going to take a look at which names moved up the list.
<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>
The movement starts at the very top where St. Mary’s dynamic wide receiver [player_tooltip player_id="37523" first="Kevin" last="Coleman"] made a big jump from the fifth spot to the No. 1 player in the class, ahead of some talented defensive linemen in Burroughs’ [player_tooltip player_id="37521" first="Tyson" last="Ford"] (Notre Dame commitment), Boonville’s [player_tooltip player_id="96233" first="DJ" last="Wesolak"] and St. Charles’ [player_tooltip player_id="37557" first="Marquis" last="Gracial"] (Missouri).
Coleman is an undersized wide receiver, but he’s a difference maker whenever he takes the field. He scored 12 touchdowns (eight receiving, two rushing, two on returns) in just four games during his shortened junior season a year ago and racked up 500 total yards (426 receiving) and 721 all-purpose yards in those games.
The St. Mary’s standout has racked up more than 30 scholarship offers from coast to coast from just about every major college football program you can think of. His recruitment will be one of the big stories to watch over the next several months before Signing Day.
Another big mover in the Top 10 is Gracial, a University of Missouri commitment who has continued to attract a lot of attention and recently took a visit to check out Alabama.
Gracial, the top defensive tackle prospect in the rankings, moved up from No. 10 to the fourth spot. He racked up 29 tackles and three sacks in five games a year ago as a junior.
[player_tooltip player_id="37534" first="Domonique" last="Orange"], another big defensive tackle, moved up from No. 12 to the sixth spot.
The 300-pounder from North Kansas City has blown up on the recruiting trail and attracted offers from Ohio State, Florida State, Georgia and Oregon among others. Coleman, Wesolak and Orange are the only remaining uncommitted prospects in the Top 10.
Two more prospects who made big moves into the top 10 spots are Parkway West wide receiver [player_tooltip player_id="37542" first="Ja’Marion" last="Wayne"] (Missouri) and Festus tight end [player_tooltip player_id="37527" first="Kaian" last="Roberts-Day"] (Baylor).
Wayne, the second-highest rated wide receiver prospect in the class, moved up from No. 29 to No. 8, while Roberts-Day, the top-ranked tight end, moved up from No. 22 to No. 9.
