Continue ReadingSome big-time names, all of which are now top-100 players in Pennsylvania, have transferred to better their high school football situations and careers. In this piece, we will highlight some of the top prospects who have made the decision to transfer and begin their junior campaigns with a clean slate. A couple of major programs reloaded, while two up-and-coming programs look to capitalize on the insurgence of talent.
Kevin Towns Kevin Towns 6'4" | 290 lbs | OL St. Joseph's Prep | 2024 State PA – Archbishop Wood / St. Joseph’s Prep
Kevin Towns Kevin Towns 6'4" | 290 lbs | OL St. Joseph's Prep | 2024 State PA , formerly out of Archbishop Wood, joins many at the program who have transferred out because of the most recent coaching change. Wood still retained a ton of talent, and the coaching staff present can still lead the team to where they want to be. However, Towns is amongst one of the best offensive line units in the PCL. The Liberty-offered junior now sits pretty as one of the more polished and technically sound linemen on this loaded St. Joe’s 2024 class. Wherever the program needs Towns to fit, he will do so seamlessly. Excited to see what the new connection can bring forth to both parties.

Davon Willie Davon Willie 5'11" | 170 lbs | DB St. Joseph's Prep | 2024 State PA – Conwell – Egan / St. Joseph’s Prep
The second Top-100 prospect on this list has also transferred to St. Joseph’s Prep. Davon Willie Davon Willie 5'11" | 170 lbs | DB St. Joseph's Prep | 2024 State PA , who barely missed the top-50 cut, will now add himself to one of the best secondaries in the PCL and the state itself. Willie will now pair with Omillio Agard Omillio Agard 5'11" | 160 lbs | DB St. Joseph's Prep | 2024 State PA , Shamir Johnson Shamir Johnson 6'0" | 180 lbs | DB St. Joseph's Prep | 2024 State PA , Anthony Sacca Anthony Sacca 6'4" | 220 lbs | LB St. Joseph's Prep | 2025 State PA , and more young, talented prospects who are on the rise. Willie is used to working with a star-studded group, as the junior is leaving a secondary that will deploy Tim Gipli Tim Gipli 5'11" | DB Conwell-Egan | 2024 State PA and Mekhi Harper Mekhi Harper 6'2" | 180 lbs | DB Conwell-Egan | 2023 State PA . Guessing future reps out of this program is nearly impossible when considering the talent they have backloaded. I hope to see Willie mesh well with his new counterparts.
Samier Bromfield Samier Bromfield OL Neumann & Goretti | 2024 State PA – Roman Catholic / Neumann-Goretti
David Macon David Macon 5'11" | 175 lbs | DB Cheltenham | 2024 State PA – Roman Catholic / Cheltenham
Roman Catholic is yet another illustrious program that has talented busting out of the seams. You can dig deep into their rosters and still find potential collegiate recruits waiting for their time to shine. At programs like this, you will always need to prove you are worthy of your reps, nothing is given. Two immensely talented prospects who are squarely on the radar of collegiate coaches, Samier Bromfield Samier Bromfield OL Neumann & Goretti | 2024 State PA and David Macon David Macon 5'11" | 175 lbs | DB Cheltenham | 2024 State PA , will both be playing in new threads this upcoming Fall. Samier Bromfield Samier Bromfield OL Neumann & Goretti | 2024 State PA , who has taken a slight tumble down our rankings, will now hope to have an elite season at Neumann-Goretti. NG will have numerous talented defensive linemen, all of which are ready to prove themselves on the national and local stage. Deshon Dodson Deshon Dodson 6'4" | 260 lbs | DL Neumann-Goretti | 2024 State PA doesn’t need any help, but Chris Bressi Chris Bressi 6'0" | 255 lbs | DL Neumann-Goretti | 2023 State PA and Koren Robinson are out to show what they are made of. Bromfield will compliment that group nicely.
David Macon David Macon 5'11" | 175 lbs | DB Cheltenham | 2024 State PA will join a Cheltenham defense that has had quite the insurgence of youth and talent because of their recent coaching staff moves. We have talked about the offensive side of the ball and the pieces they added, the likes of Anthony Torres and Julian Arthur Julian Arthur 6'0" | 180 lbs | WR Cheltenham | 2024 State PA to name a few. Macon can add his name next to Kion Wright Kion Wright 6'3" | 235 lbs | DL Cheltenham | 2023 State PA ’s as two premier prospects who are ready to bolster this Cheltenham defense.
Shyne Roberts Shyne Roberts 6'1" | 210 lbs | LB Upper Dublin | 2024 State PA – Martin Luther King / Upper Dublin
Here is one of the more under-rated and under appreciated moves I’ve come across this offseason. I am stuck on the belief that Shyne Roberts Shyne Roberts 6'1" | 210 lbs | LB Upper Dublin | 2024 State PA is a potential FBS player. Maybe those in the know were weary to make the move because of the competition in the Philadelphia Public League. Some of those questions are fair, yet I have a feeling this move will be felt by many in District One. I am already a huge fan of many at Upper Dublin, the program hardly has a hole on both sides of the ball. Now, add a talent who can play almost anywhere amongst the front-seven, a talent who deserves to be higher on our rankings to begin with. Might not be a 2024 prospect I’m more excited to see than this kid.

Nick Slogik Nick Slogik 6'5" | 230 lbs | DL Bishop McDevitt | 2024 State PA – Warwick / Bishop McDevitt
Here’s an interesting move. Nick Slogik Nick Slogik 6'5" | 230 lbs | DL Bishop McDevitt | 2024 State PA , a top-20 defensive linemen in a crowded class has chosen a change of scenery, one of which I believe might propell his stock through the roof. Slogik received an FBS-ceiling grade out of me, that grade would have been cemented whether he was at Warwick or not. We have seen talent out of the Warwick program reach the highest level of recruiting in the past, so to say Slogik will receive a recruitment boost solely because of the program switch might be a reach. What is exciting is seeing this kid up against some of the best Central Pennsylvania has to offer on a weekly basis. I’m also excited to see how Slogik meshes with the already talented front-seven at BMD. Wishing Nick the best!
