He is attracting the attention of Baylor, Auburn, and Clemson. Those three schools are his top three and he will be placing his commitment with one of those three on Friday afternoon. The talented Little Rock Christian signal caller placed his commitment with the Auburn Tigers. White throws an accurate ball to all levels of the field.

Russell is coming off a season where averaged almost 140 yard pers game. Russell has no problem allowing a lane to develop before exploding through the hole. He has the speed needed to make a cut and take it down the sideline. Over the past few weeks, Russell has received scholarship offers from Baylor, Kansas, and Cincinnati. He is going to be a running back that several schools are going to battle it out for over the next few months.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='149573' first='Austyn' last='Dendy']-Running Back-Pine Bluff</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The Pine Bluff Zebras always have talented players and going into the 2023 season that trend looks to continue. Pine Bluff running back [player_tooltip player_id='149573' first='Austyn' last='Dendy'] started to open plenty of eyes last season with his impressive play. Dendy is a versatile prospect that can run the ball between the tackles or be split out wide and used as a receiver. Dendy has the potential to have a strong 2023 season for the Zebras this season. He has earned scholarship offers from Missouri, Central Arkansas, and Arkansas-Pine Bluff. Keep an eye on Dendy this upcoming season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='149537' first='Lane' last='Jeffcoat']-Offensive Line-Bentonville West</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='149537' first='Lane' last='Jeffcoat'] has been a mainstay on the Bentonville West offensive line over the past two years. From a pass blocking perspective, Jeffcoat does a great job of overpowering defenders and using his quick feet to keep them at bay. He is rarely caught out of position and does a good job of keeping his quarterback clean. Jeffcoat has proven over that he can be a dominate run blocker as well. The UNLV staff has taken notice of the Bentonville West powerhouse and extended a scholarship offer. I expect Jeffcoat to blow up from a recruiting perspective over the next few months. He has the potential to see plenty of playing time on Saturdays in the future.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
