Class of 2024 Position Breakdown: Quarterback

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The class of 2024 quarterbacks in the state of Arkansas have already started to open eyes over the past few months. The next few classes have several blue-chip division one quarterbacks that is coming up through the ranks in the state of Arkansas. 2024 has numerous quarterbacks with the potential to play on Saturdays in the future and we are going to look at some prospects to watch out for this season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='149571' first='Walker' last='White']-Little Rock Christian-6'3” 200-Pounds</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='149571' first='Walker' last='White'] has seen his recruiting explode over the past few months. He is a quarterback that can make all the throws needed in a division one quarterback. With a strong arm and a quick release, White has caught the attention of numerous SEC schools including Arkansas and Ole Miss. One facet of his game that does not receive the credit that it deserves is that he has tremendous pocket presence. White knows when to escape the pocket, however, he does a fantastic job of keeping his eyes down the field. Watch out for White this season, Little Rock Christian has the talent for a deep playoff run this season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='155329' first='Bryce' last='Perkins']-Van Buren-6'2” 175-Pounds</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Over the past few months, Perkins has looked to be in mid-season form. Perkins has put on display a strong arm and his accuracy has been impressive this offseason. The Van Buren signal caller has had a strong offseason and has set the stage for an impressive 2022 campaign. He is a prospect that is not afraid to scramble outside of the pocket and use his legs to pick up first downs. Perkins has performed well all offseason and was off to an excellent start in 2021 before suffering an injury. I look for Perkins to have an even stronger 2022 season and I expect him to earn some scholarship offers in the process.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='149543' first='Kel' last='Busby']-Pulaski Academy-6'2” 185-Pounds</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The Pulaski Academy signal caller has very strong arm that he has done a good job of showcasing this summer. Busby is an accurate quarterback that does an impressive job of connecting with his wide receivers. He can fit the ball into some tight windows. Busby's presence in the pocket is good and he knows when to move around enough to extend the play. The 6-A conference is going to be a new challenge for the Bruins, but this should be a strong season for Busby and the Bruins.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='214836' first='Donovyn' last='Omolo']-Conway 6'0” 180-Pounds</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='214836' first='Donovyn' last='Omolo'] had a tremendous 2021 season, and his momentum has carried over to the offseason. Omolo was terrific last season for the Wampus Cats. He has impressive pocket presence and does an impressive job of escaping the pocket and using his legs to pick up first downs. Omolo has a strong arm, and he uses it well to connect with his wide receivers on the deep and intermediate routes. I look for Conway to make another playoff run this season and I expect a big season out of Omolo in the process.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='149574' first='Bradon' last='Allen']-Lonoke-6'0” 165-Pounds</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>One of the most dynamic athletes at the quarterback position is Lonoke's [player_tooltip player_id='149574' first='Bradon' last='Allen']. Allen had an extremely impressive 2021 football season for Lonoke. The Lonoke signal caller has a strong arm and can hit his wide receivers in stride. Allen threw for over 1,500 yards and 19 touchdown passes last season. Meanwhile, Allen also rushed for almost 800 yards last season. Lonoke has plenty of weapons returning this season and Allen has the potential to light up Friday nights all season long.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='157343' first='Cameron' last='Vanzant']-Farmington-6'2” 175-Pounds</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='157343' first='Cameron' last='Vanzant'] exploded on to the scene last season and led Farmington on a deep playoff run. The Farmington signal caller had an excellent 2021 football season. Vanzant threw for 2,330 yards and 32 touchdowns in 2021. He does a good job of escaping the pocket but keeps his eyes down the field and creates big plays in the process. He is a quarterback that does a good job of extending the drives and making plays with his arms and his legs. I expect Vanzant to continue to open eyes and he is a prospect with the potential to play on Saturdays in the future.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
