Holding onto the top spot is Vista Ridge gunslinger Brayden Dorman Brayden Dorman 6'5" | 200 lbs | QB Vista Ridge | 2023 State CO . Dorman is a big QB with an even bigger arm. The Arizona commit isn’t just the top QB in the state, he is one of the top QB recruits in the nation.
Coming in at number two is Golden’s Jazel Riley IV Jazel Riley IV 6'2" | 210 lbs | QB Golden | 2023 State CO who has substantially elevated his standing as a prospect. His junior performance consisted of throwing for over 1,000 yards and running for over 1,000 yards in one of the better seasons the program has had in a while. Even though this elite dual-threat QB has yet to receive his first offer, Riley IV is one of the best athletes in the state with limitless potential.
In the third-ranked spot is Joseph Capra Joseph Capra 6'1" | 165 lbs | QB Denver South | 2023 State CO from Denver South with Broomfield’s Cole LaCrue Cole LaCrue 6'2" | 190 lbs | QB Broomfield | 2023 State CO laying claim to the fourth-ranked position. Both mobile QBs have dual-threat abilities that have helped them see an uptick in their recruiting. Capra had an extremely impressive junior year and carried that momentum into the camp season, where he has earned two Division II offers. LaCrue’s offseason has also been exciting, with him receiving a couple of D1 offers after putting on impressive performances at various camps.
Closing out the top five is Kaiden Box Kaiden Box 6'4" | 195 lbs | QB Skyline | 2023 State CO from Skyline. His focus this offseason has been on developing his craft and showcasing his skills at camps and in club tournaments. In fact, Box was dropping dimes and turning heads while competing in national 7-on-7 competitions alongside Dorman with Team Full Gorilla. For programs searching for a tall pocket passer with an accurate Howitzer for an arm and the athleticism to escape and scoot, the name Box should be circled on the recruiting board.
The sixth spot was secured by Evergreen’s Tommy Poholsky Tommy Poholsky 6'1" | 175 lbs | QB Evergreen | 2023 State CO , while Summit’s Jack Schierholz Jack Schierholz 6'2" | 200 lbs | QB Summit | 2023 State CO is sitting at seventh. Poholsky had an impressive junior season, and beginning to the summer, helping him to earn a preferred walk-on (PWO) from Iowa. Schierholz has started to see a rise in his recruiting stock, recently earning his first two D2 offers.
