Class of ’25 Rankings Update: Future Playmakers on Offense

With each class update much attention gets drawn to the top ranked prospects, and understandably so. But the Class of ’25 has an abundance of talent that needs to be highlighted as well. The Top 25 of this class is filled with prospects that stood out during the ‘21 campaign. Especially these five players. Each of these individuals have a great opportunity to compete for significant varsity action during the ’22 season, and they’re all capable of being key playmakers for their programs over the next few years. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="285568" first="Jacob" last="Hawks"]</strong> – Washburn Rural, 6’7”, 260, OL Hawks is the second prospect from the Jr. Blues program to make his debut in this update, as he joins [player_tooltip player_id="285567" first="Caden" last="Estrada"] inside the Top 25. This young hog didn’t see the varsity level during his freshman year, but he has loads of potential. He has something that coaches simply cannot teach, and that’s collegiate level size at a young age. His frame is sure to intrigue recruiters, but don’t sleep on his skills. Hawks has already shown early signs of being able to play left and right tackle, and he does a great job of executing his assignments. He has a ton of upside and should compete for a starting job on varsity this year. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="282264" first="Miller" last="Jones"]</strong> – Blue Valley North, 5’8”, 145, QB A big question for the Blue Valley North Mustangs this offseason is likely, who will be the heir apparent to [player_tooltip player_id="35554" first="Henry" last="Martin"]? The coaching staff is sure to have some players in mind, and one of them could be [player_tooltip player_id="282264" first="Miller" last="Jones"]. He’s making his debut in this first Class of ’25 rankings update as the 2^nd ranked quarterback prospect in the class. This comes after the young signal caller put together some solid film while playing for the Mustangs’ freshmen team in 2021. Jones displayed an ability to escape pressure, keep his eyes downfield and make accurate throws on the run. He may have to wait his turn this year, but his playmaking ability makes a him a strong candidate for QB1. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="285513" first="Jason" last="Robinson"]</strong> – Hoisington, 5’10”, 160, ATH The Hoisington Cardinals are losing the talented [player_tooltip player_id="209267" first="Legend" last="Robinson"] this spring, but they’ll still have his younger brother Jason on their roster for the next three seasons. The freshman already has his career off to a nice start. He saw action on both sides of the ball during the ’21 season, and he made the most of his opportunities. On offense he averaged 11 yards per carry after rushing for 198 yards on 18 attempts, and on defense he racked up 37 total tackles with three interceptions. With the Cardinals favoring a backfield by committee, Jason could see an increased role on offense during the ‘22 season. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="285710" first="Landon" last="Harp"]</strong> – Andale, 5’10”, 160, ATH Andale is turning into a program that produces nothing but physical athletes that know how to win. The 3A state champs are looking to be led by a strong group of seniors, but Harp is an underclassman that could make an impact for them this fall. Harp was used in a variety of ways at the freshmen level in 2021. He played the role of H-back, as he saw time at tight end, fullback, and running back. Harp is a physical runner between the tackles and he proved to be a reliable target in the passing game as well. The Indians could also trust Harp to fill in at corner at the varsity level. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="282253" first="Aaron" last="Tunstall"]</strong> – Field Kindley, 5’8”, 160, ATH This past season the Golden Tornados had [player_tooltip player_id="262719" first="Kainen" last="White"] as their breakout sophomore, and this year it could be [player_tooltip player_id="282253" first="Aaron" last="Tunstall"]. The 21^st ranked prospect should have the chance to become the clear-cut feature back in Field Kindley’s offense during the ’22 campaign. He posted respectable numbers during his first varsity season, as he went on to rush for 349 yards on 79 carriers. Tunstall is a back that is shifty and possesses a quick burst. His speed makes him a home run threat anytime the ball is in his hands. Tunstall also fared well at defensive back, posting 38 total tackles with two interceptions and three pass breakups.
