November has been extremely hot with tons of big offers rolling in for Arizona preps, especially for the 2023 class. There’s been so many that I’ll have to break up this report into two parts. Here’s a look at Pt. 1 of the November stock risers:

[player_tooltip player_id="42926" first="Matthew" last="Klopfenstein"], <em>TE, Horizon ’23</em>
Klopfenstein has seen some big offers roll in this month, bringing his total up to 9. He landed an offer from Michigan, then followed up the very next day with his first SEC offer from Tennessee. We have seen a handful of SEC programs taking notice of some Arizona prospects, so I wouldn’t be surprised if we see some more SEC offers come though for Klopfenstein. Regardless, expect his recruitment to sky rocket in the upcoming months.
[player_tooltip player_id="42924" first="Kyler" last="Kasper"], <em>WR, Williams Field ’23</em>
Kasper continues to see the offers flood in, as he’s picked up two big time offers this month from Ohio State and Penn State. Ohio State has been able to land some of Arizona’s top prospects in the recent years including Jack Miller (Chaparral ’20), Denzel Burke (Saguaro ’21), and Chandler’s 2022 WR [player_tooltip player_id="42787" first="Kyion" last="Grayes"], so it will be interesting to see if they can land another big time AZ athlete for the fourth year in a row.
[player_tooltip player_id="165883" first="Tre" last="Spivey"], <em>WR, Hamilton ’23<img class="size-medium wp-image-64677 alignright" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/redzone/uploads/2020/10/IMG_4635-225x300.jpg" alt="" width="225" height="300" /></em>
Spivey picked up his first power 5 offer from Arizona. He also holds offers from New Mexico and Northern Arizona, but given his production and window of potential, I expect Spivey to see many more power 5 offers come in. He’s taken a tremendous leap from his sophomore to junior season, and has continue to look more polished each week and possesses that ideal 6’4" 185lb frame for an X or Z at the next level.
[player_tooltip player_id="42837" first="Christian" last="Anaya"], <em>WR, Hamilton ’22</em>
Anaya pulled in an FCS offer from Portland State this month, but has also been seeing interest from Arizona. All 5 of his offers are from FCS programs, but given Anaya’s production this season (17 receptions for 878 yards and 17 total TD’s), he could potential see some late FBS offers come through and is well deserving of so.
[player_tooltip player_id="165881" first="Jack" last="Endean"], <em>OL, Tanque Verde ’23</em>
The meanest kid in 2A ball picked up an Oklahoma State offer this month, giving him 3 total offers thus far. He holds other offers from Cal and Arizona, and will only continue to see his stock grow in the upcoming months. A legit 6’6" 280lb monster up front that is on a completely different level than anyone in 2A football, and has been the highest touted prospect from the 2A conference ever in my recollection.
[player_tooltip player_id="42912" first="Mykeil" last="Gardner"], <em>DL, Liberty ’23</em>
Gardner has introduced himself as a big time threat to everyone in the state this season. This month, he’s picked up 4 out of his 6 total offers from Cal, Arizona State, Texas, and Fresno State, and holds previous offers from Arizona and Northern Arizona. Super explosive off the ball and moves very well within his 6’3" 270lb frame to continue to be a problem throughout the playoffs and into his senior season next year, so expect Gardner to continue to see those offers pour in.
[player_tooltip player_id="115509" first="Navi" last="Bruzon"], <em>QB, Liberty ’24</em>
Bruzon picked up offer #1 from Morgan State, and has been flashing signs of a legit game changer behind center as he continues to develop. He sizes up at 5’10" 180lbs with a dual-threat ability that notched his first start against Chaparral a few weeks back, and looked like a natural leader.
