Unsigned & Un-Offered: 2022 Philly Public-League Part. 6

Calling all college coaches. If you’re looking to fill the back end of your roster or missed on prospects you thought you might’ve landed, no worries! We have you covered! In this multi-part series, we will highlight some of the best unsigned and unoffered players that should be contacted immediately! I will do so by position, including quick one-liners of some notes based on each prospect’s film. &nbsp; <em><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="140854" first="Carlos" last="Rivera"] | 6’0, 180 | ATH | West Philadelphia </strong></em> <ul> <li>Status: Unoffered</li> <li>PRZPA Rank: <span style="font-size: 14pt;">291</span></li> </ul> One of the more productive players in the PPL. West Philadelphia ATH who is the epitome of a dual-threat QB. Made some wow throws this past season, was even more spectacular on the move. I don’t think Rivera projects to the quarterback position at the next level but I can say with 100% certainty that his overall talent and play-making ability will hold value to a college program. <em><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="27622" first="Will" last="Robinson"] | 5’9, 190 | RB | Imhotep Charter </strong></em> <ul> <li>Status: Unoffered</li> <li>PRZPA Rank: <span style="font-size: 14pt;">128</span></li> </ul> I have been a [player_tooltip player_id="27622" first="Will" last="Robinson"] fan since last Spring, where Robinson earned Spring All-State honors. We all know how deep and talented the ’Tep stable of backs are and in a state championship run, the more fresh legs the better. His production took a slight dip due to injury as well. He’d be the first to tell you the senior season didn’t go as planned. Nonetheless, I stand on his ranking and potential. 2x all-state player still unoffered. <em><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="140829" first="Donovan" last="Saunders"] | 6’3, 290 | OL | Northeast </strong></em> <ul> <li>Status: Unsigned / Offered: Misericordia</li> <li>PRZPA Rank: <span style="font-size: 14pt;">214</span></li> </ul> Right by Misericordia to get a jump on one of the better offensive linemen in the city if not the state. I do believe that DIII ball is his floor, not his ceiling. 3.5 GPA. Position versatility. I have clamored for the kid to get more looks and am happy it’s starting to change. Has a DII floor in my opinion. All-State and All-Pub selection. <em><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="243315" first="Marcus" last="Bryant"] | 5’10, 160 | DB | Simon Gratz</strong></em> <ul> <li>Status: Unsigned / Offered: Widener, King’s College</li> <li>PRZPA Rank: <span style="font-size: 14pt;">344</span></li> </ul> Might be the heavily recruited prospect on this list, yet his ranking doesn’t show it. That needs to change. [player_tooltip player_id="243315" first="Marcus" last="Bryant"] is every bit worthy of his recruiting success, getting Widener and King’s College to offer. Intelligent DB who can also provide quality reps at wideout. Love his accountability at DB. Quick feet, doesn’t panic often. Would love to get this kid in front of more college coaches at our showcase. He is a frequent campus visitor. https://twitter.com/M9rcusBryant/status/1466171016816775174?s=20 <em><strong>Hakim Gantz Jr. | 6’0, 260 | DL | Olney Charter </strong></em> <ul> <li>Status: Unsigned / Offered: Culver/Stockton, Clarke,</li> <li>PRZPA Rank: <span style="font-size: 14pt;">Unranked</span></li> </ul> I’ll be the first to admit it. Hakim Gantz and many other Olney prospects flew under my radar this past Fall. No excuse. 100% a rankable prospect who was just missed. His senior tape was cut short due to a torn ACL. Can still find plenty of quality reps on his latest film. Makes sense that Culver-Stockton offered him, Gantz Jr. fits the defensive line mold that they covet. Big, violent, tone-setter. Tone-setter might be the best way to describe Gantz. Well-coached player. <em><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="156291" first="Ibrahim" last="Diawara"] | 6’3, 230 | DL | Boys Latin </strong></em> <ul> <li>Status: Unoffered</li> <li>PRZPA Rank: <span style="font-size: 14pt;">362</span></li> </ul> Every one of these pieces, there’s always a head-scratcher. Now any prospect listed that doesn’t have an offer should, Ibrhami Diawara however should have multiple. I can’t say as to why, but I can say what the kid can provide. Serious pass-rush ability. 13 sacks, 75 tackles. Production is there, albeit against solid competition. 6’3, 230 who can rush the passer with speed. Size and frame is there. Mini-Max award winner. 2nd-team All-State. The accolades are there. Not sure what else is missing. Would love to have him compete at our Showcase. <em><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="243361" first="Tahjere" last="Jackson"] | 6’1, 170 | DB | West Philadelphia </strong></em> <ul> <li>Status: Unoffered</li> <li>PRZPA Rank: <span style="font-size: 14pt;">522</span></li> </ul> Last but not least is a player that epitomizes Unoffered &amp; Unsigned. A true gem that I am willing to stand on. [player_tooltip player_id="243361" first="Tahjere" last="Jackson"] is a player college coaches should be intrigued by, film shows his ball awareness is a plus. Smooth hips. Break-on-ball ability is a plus. Say what you want about the competition level. This kid is worth an invite to campus at the least. Hope that happens for him. Would also love to see how he tests in a t-shirt and shorts. https://twitter.com/TahjereJackson1/status/1454886339401428992?s=20
