There aren’t any changes in the Top 10 of these updated rankings. Platte County edge rusher Chandavian Bradley Chandavian Bradley 6'5" | 215 lbs | DL Platte County | 2023 State MO , who recently committed to Tennessee, holds on to the top spot followed by big Lee’s Summit North offensive lineman Cayden Green Cayden Green 6'5" | 310 lbs | OL Lee's Summit North | 2023 State MO , who recently pledged to Oklahoma.
Here is a quick look at some of the biggest stock risers in the newly updated rankings:
LB Austin Romaine Austin Romaine 6'2" | 230 lbs | LB Hillsboro | 2023 State MO , Hillsboro
Romaine, a 6-2, 230-pounder, has had a great offseason and proven himself at every turn with strong testing numbers and camp performances. In this rankings update, the Hawks’ standout linebacker makes a big jump from No. 49 to No. 26 overall.
The top-rated linebacker in Missouri in the Class of 2023 received his first Power 5 scholarship offer, from Kansas State, back on June 26. Romaine racked up 85 tackles, 19 tackles for loss, eight sacks and one interception as a junior and added 1,047 rushing yards and 11 touchdowns and 15 catches for 172 yards and three touchdowns as a running back.
LB Michael Teason Michael Teason 6'2" | 215 lbs | LB CBC | 2023 State MO , CBC
Teason, the No. 2 linebacker in Missouri in the Class of 2023 behind Romaine, makes a nice jump in this rankings update after an impressive offseason that has seen him collect more than a dozen scholarship offers from Division I schools, including recent offers from Dartmouth, Yale and Southern Illinois.
The 6-2, 220-pound linebacker, who moves up from No. 50 to No. 29 overall in Missouri in the Class of 2023, recorded 64 tackles, four fumble recoveries, two sacks and two interceptions during his junior season as he helped CBC win the Class 6 championship.
WR Anthony Wenson Anthony Wenson 6'1" | 195 lbs | WR Liberty | 2023 State MO , Liberty
An explosive 6-0, 180-pound speedster, Wenson lists his position as “playmaker” on his Twitter bio and it’s fitting. He’s probably a wide receiver at the next level, but his speed and athleticism makes him a dangerous player wherever he lines up. He earned all-state honors as a kick returner following his junior campaign. Wenson makes a huge leap in this rankings update, going from No. 127 to No. 45 overall, following his commitment to Air Force back on June 30.
DB Jamir Conn Jamir Conn 6'0" | 160 lbs | DB Lee's Summit North | 2023 State MO , Lee’s Summit North
The Broncos are loaded once again and should be one of the top teams in Missouri again this fall after losing in the semifinals at CBC a year ago. Conn, a 6-0 cornerback, doesn’t get as much attention as some of his higher-profile tickets, but he’s a decent prospect in his own right and has attracted plenty of interest from colleges.
He added scholarship offers from Southeast Missouri State, North Dakota, Army and South Dakota in June. Conn, who is ranked as the seventh-best defensive back in Missouri in 2023, moves up from No. 64 to No. 49 overall in this rankings update.
QB Cole Feuerbacher Cole Feuerbacher 6'2" | 185 lbs | QB Glendale | 2023 State MO , Glendale
Feuerbacher, a 6-2, 190-pounder, put up big numbers in Glendale’s high-powered offense during his junior season and has impressed this offseason. He completed 65 percent of his passes for 3,088 yards and 35 touchdowns against just five interceptions. He also rushed for a team-high 484 yards and added three touchdowns on the ground.
His junior season film shows he has good size, good athleticism and a good arm. He recently picked up his first Division I scholarship offer from Missouri State. Feuerbacher moves up to the No. 3 quarterback prospect in Missouri in the Class of 2023 and goes from No. 81 to No. 50 overall.
TE Trenton Groff Trenton Groff 6'4" | 235 lbs | TE Eureka | 2023 State MO , Eureka
A 6-4, 240-pound tight end and linebacker, Groff is a big, physical player who could even end up playing offensive line depending on where he ends up next year. He has received scholarship offers from Northern Iowa, Columbia, Indiana State, Colgate and Rhodes this offseason and should have a good senior year playing for a Wildcats squad that will run for a ton of yards. Groff moves up from No. 209 overall to No. 65 with this rankings update.
WR Arhmad Branch Arhmad Branch 6'0" | 160 lbs | WR Festus | 2023 State MO , Festus
Branch, who is also a good basketball player, moves up from No. 136 overall to No. 74 with this rankings update following a good offseason that saw him pick up scholarship offers from Lindenwood and Northern Iowa. He’s a good athlete and has a high ceiling as a wide receiver because of his combination of size, speed and athleticism along with having a lot of room for development at the position. As a junior he recorded 34 catches for 1,049 yards and 10 touchdowns. He averaged a ridiculous 30.9 yards per catch.
