Quarterbacks:
Collin Quintano Collin Quintano 6'3" | 195 lbs | QB Notre Dame Green Pond | 2022 State PA (Notre Dame Green Pond; Senior) In The last 2 seasons Quintanto has been very productive. He’s thrown for 2,753 yards, 25 touchdowns, and 5 interceptions. He’s also completed 61% of his passes with a minimum of 300 pass attempts. Quintanto did commit to playing baseball at Villanova.
Brad Birch Brad Birch 6'0" | 190 lbs | QB Gateway | 2024 State PA (Gateway; Sophomore) Birch had an unbelievable freshman season with a QB rating of 118.2. He’s shown to prove himself at a camp that he can be the best QB out of Western Pa regardless of class. High expectations this season, especially now that he’s up against better competition.
Running Backs:
Eryck Moore-Watkins Eryck Moore-Watkins 6'0" | 190 lbs | RB Plum | 2023 State PA (Plum; Junior) Moore is the best RB out of Western Pa. He’s got the size, speed, and physicality as a number 1 back. I see Moore as a Group of 5 with potential of Power 5 back.
Gavin Garcia Gavin Garcia 5'7" | 185 lbs | RB Southern Columbia | 2022 State PA (Southern Columbia; Senior) Garcia proved to be an FBS back last season, despite his size. He had 113 carries rushing for almost 2,000 yards and 30 touchdowns. He narrowed his top schools down to Kent State, Harvard, and Princeton.
Wide Receivers:
Quinton Martin Quinton Martin 6'3" | 200 lbs | ATH Belle Vernon Area | 2024 State PA (Belle Vernon; Sophomore) Martin had a standout season as a freshman. He played all over the field. I expect him to continue to make a lot of big plays at WR.
Peter Gonzalez Peter Gonzalez 6'3" | 200 lbs | WR Pittsburgh Central Catholic | 2024 State PA (Pittsburgh C.C.; Sophomore) Despite not having freshman film, seeing Gonzalez multiple times at camps, this kid is a stud. He recently transferred to Pittsburgh Central Catholic from Mars. I fully expect him to have a big season.
Kenny Johnson Kenny Johnson 6'1" | 190 lbs | WR Dallastown Area | 2023 State PA (York Suburban; Junior) Johnson is our number 1 receiver in the 2023 class. He had 31 receptions for 640 yards and 9 touchdowns. Johnson is a really good route runner and that’s how he creates separation.
Tyseer Denmark Tyseer Denmark 5'11" | 180 lbs | WR Imhotep Charter | 2024 State PA (Roman Catholic; Sophomore) Demark racked up a ton of offers this offseason. Demark should be a fun guy to watch this season as he continues to develop.
Tight Ends:
Thomas Chernasky Thomas Chernasky 6'5" | 235 lbs | TE Western Wayne | 2022 State PA (Western Wayne; Senior) Chernasky plays the true tight end position. He is more of a blocker but can be a threat in the receiving game. Chernasky recently committed to Delaware.
Aiden Mack Aiden Mack 6'4" | 225 lbs | TE Wyomissing | 2022 State PA (Wyomissing Area; Senior) Mack committed to Richmond. He is more of a receiving threat but is physical in the blocking game.
Offensive Line:
Peter Jones Peter Jones 6'5" | 300 lbs | OL Malvern Prep | 2024 State PA (Malvern Prep; Sophomore) Jones has received a few P5 offers this offseason. As of now we do believe that Jones is the number 1 offensive lineman in the 2024 class. Really interested to see how he improved this season.
Cooper Young Cooper Young 6'5" | 300 lbs | OL Downingtown West | 2023 State PA (Downingtown West; Junior) Young is a physical kid who is a finisher. Young received a couple P5 offers this offseason but should continue to add more this season.
Julian Cervantes Julian Cervantes 6'1" | 270 lbs | OL St. Joseph's Prep | 2023 State PA (St. Joe’s Prep; Junior) Though Cervantes is undersized, he shows good techniques and is physical. Hopefully, he does grow because he has potential of being a Power 5 player.
Emir Stinette Emir Stinette 6'5" | 330 lbs | OL Imhotep Charter | 2022 State PA (Imhotep Charter; Senior) Stinnestte is a big kid, listed at 6’5 330. He moves well for his size. Has a strong first punch and is physical. He had a few P5 offers early to mid-2020. Not sure what is recruiting is like now.
Brandon Lawhorn Moore Brandon Lawhorn Moore 6'5" | 290 lbs | OL Kiski | 2022 State PA (Kiski Area; Senior; OG) Moore is a big physical kid who drives feet on contact. I believe he is a RT but in the scenario, I have him at guard.
