The Missouri rankings have been updated for the Class of 2022, Class of 2023 and Class of 2024 and now, just a few days before the 2021 season kicks off, we take a look at some players to watch in our initial Class of 2025 Watch List.
(NOTE: For more information on each of the prospects, including links to HUDL highlights when available, please click on the player’s names to check out their prospect pages.)
Isaiah Mozee Isaiah Mozee 6'1" | 190 lbs | WR Lee's Summit North | 2025 State MO , 5-11, 165, WR, Lee’s Summit North
Mozee would be a candidate for the No. 1 spot in the Class of 2025 rankings if we had decided to rank these young fellas. He has already received scholarship offers from Miami (Ohio) and Iowa, which makes him the first 2025 prospect to report scholarship offers from Division I schools.
The son of Lee’s Summit North coach Jamar Mozee, the freshman standout adds to a loaded squad that returns most of its starters from last year and is led Division I commits in OL Armand Membou Armand Membou 6'5" | 320 lbs | OL Lee's Summit North | 2022 State MO (Missouri), DB Dewuan Mack Dewuan Mack 6'0" | 190 lbs | DB Lee's Summit North | 2022 State MO (Kansas) and QB Tre Baker Tre Baker 6'0" | 190 lbs | QB Lee's Summit North | 2022 State MO (Abilene Christian) and junior OL Cayden Green Cayden Green 6'5" | 310 lbs | OL Lee's Summit North | 2023 State MO , the No. 1 prospect in Missouri in the Class of 2023.
It’s impossible to predict what kind of impact Mozee can make as a freshman playing varsity, especially on a talent-laden squad like LSN, but he will have one of the state’s best quarterbacks throwing him the ball and should get opportunities as older teammates could face more attention from opposing defenses.
Justin Price Justin Price 5'11" | 180 lbs | WR East St. Louis | 2025 IL , 5-11, 180, WR, Lutheran North
First-year Lutheran North coach Kyle Wagner has been singing Price’s praises all offseason and thinks his freshman wide receiver will be an elite-level recruit before long.
Wagner’s squad is loaded, but Price is expected to be one of the starting wide receivers when the Crusaders kick off the season at St. Mary’s on Friday. St. Mary’s is led by elite wide receiver Kevin Coleman Kevin Coleman 5'11" | 170 lbs | WR St. Mary's | 2022 State MO , the No. 1 player in Missouri in the Class of 2022.
Price has the benefit of a Division I quarterback in Brian Brown Brian Brown 6'1" | 180 lbs | ATH Lutheran North | 2022 State MO (Southern Illinois) throwing him the ball this fall and we wouldn’t be surprised if he put up some decent numbers in his debut high school campaign.
Keylan LaGrant Keylan LaGrant 6'3" | 215 lbs | LB East St. Louis | 2025 IL , 6-3, 215, DE, Lutheran-St. Charles
LaGrant doesn’t look like a freshman and, like his Twitter bio proclaims, quarterbacks should be afraid, very afraid.
The freshman defensive end will add to a loaded Lutheran-St. Charles defense that features Division I prospects in defensive tackles in Ashtin Rustemeyer Ashtin Rustemeyer 6'2" | 285 lbs | DL Lutheran-St. Charles | 2022 State MO (Arkansas State) and Jaydon Wannstedt Jaydon Wannstedt 6'2" | 290 lbs | DL Lutheran-St. Charles | 2022 State MO , safety Arlen Harris Jr Arlen Harris Jr 5'11" | 200 lbs | RB Lutheran-St. Charles | 2022 State MO (Stanford) and cornerback Charles Young Charles Young 6'1" | 170 lbs | DB Lutheran-St. Charles | 2022 State MO and up-and-coming 2024 prospects like defensive end Isaiah Rubio Isaiah Rubio 6'2" | 255 lbs | DL Lutheran-St. Charles | 2024 State MO and linebacker Ayden Harris Ayden Harris 5'10" | 200 lbs | RB Lutheran-St. Charles | 2024 MO .
Opposing offenses are likely to focus on the two Division I defensive tackles, which should give LaGrant more opportunities to terrorize backfields and instill fear in unsuspecting quarterbacks.
Larevious Woods Larevious Woods 5'9" | 195 lbs | RB East St. Louis | 2025 State IL , 5-7, 190, RB, De Smet
A talent evaluator said this summer that De Smet’s incoming Class of 2025 class was like an all-star squad of area youth and middle school teams. Woods figures to be one of the best of that impressive bunch.
The Spartans will have a pair of standout 2023 running backs to lean on in Allen Mitchell Allen Mitchell 5'11" | 175 lbs | RB Lutheran-St. Charles | 2023 State MO and Keshawn Ford Keshawn Ford 5'11" | 190 lbs | RB De Smet | 2023 State MO , a transfer from Trinity, so it’s tough to say how much of a workload Woods could get at the varsity level this fall, but he’s certainly a player to keep an eye on over the next four years.
Kameron Eleby Kameron Eleby 6'1" | 190 lbs | QB Pattonville | 2025 State MO , 6-1, 190, QB, Pattonville
Eleby’s older brother, Kaleb, was an underrated prospect in the Class of 2018 who has blossomed at Western Michigan, including throwing for 1,442 yards and 16 touchdowns (against one interception) in five games during the COVID-shortened 2020 season.
The older Eleby’s success at Western Michigan means that his younger brother will get a lot more attention. The younger Eleby already has decent size for the position, especially for a high school freshman, and if he continues to develop should have plenty of options for college in a few years.
