We are going to look at some prospects in the 2025 class for you to get familiar with this spring. In this article, we shine the spotlight on some guys that will be in the spotlight this upcoming season.
Parker Glaze Parker Glaze 6'4" | 270 lbs | OL Benton | 2025 State AR -Offensive Line-Benton-6’4” 270-Pounds
The Benton offensive lineman is a prospect that has the potential to explode from a recruiting perspective this season. Glaze has a speed and power mix that can terrorize opposing defensive linemen. He is an extremely versatile offensive lineman that can play any of the positions along the offensive line. Glaze does an excellent job of finishing his blocks and looking for another person to block in the meantime. I look for a strong season from Glaze. He has the talent to emerge into a target for college scouts.
Trent Haygood Trent Haygood 5'9" | 165 lbs | WR Camden Fairview | 2025 State AR -Wide Receiver-Camden Fairview-5’9” 165-Pounds
Trent Haygood Trent Haygood 5'9" | 165 lbs | WR Camden Fairview | 2025 State AR is a versatile wide receiver that is dangerous in the open field. Haygood has tremendous elusiveness, which pairs with his speed. He does a great job of being able to haul in difficult receptions and then make play afterward. Haygood can play the wide receiver or running back positions with equal precision. I expect a big season from the Camden Fairview product this upcoming season.
Brycen Hamilton Brycen Hamilton 6'2" | 175 lbs | ATH Hackett | 2025 State AR -Athlete-Hackett-6’1” 155-Pounds
Versatility is the name of the game for the talented Hackett Hornet. Hamilton makes plays all over the field for the Hornets. However, we are primarily going to look at his ability as the wide receiver position. Hamilton runs smooth routes and uses his route running combined with his speed to create separation from opposing defensive backs. He is the wide receiver that always seems to open and make a play for the Hackett offense. Hamilton has the potential to have a big season for the Hornets and I expect a strong season from him. Keep an eye on Hamilton this season.
Josiah Rainey Josiah Rainey 6'0" | 155 lbs | DB Sylvan Hills | 2025 State AR -Defensive Back-Sylvan Hills-6’0”
Josiah Rainey Josiah Rainey 6'0" | 155 lbs | DB Sylvan Hills | 2025 State AR uses his hands well and is not afraid to get aggressive with opposing wide receivers. He has the speed needed to stick with opposing wide receivers. Rainey does an impressive job of playing the ball while it is in the air. He will battle the opposing wide receiver for the football. I expect a big season out of the hard-nosed defensive back from Sylvan Hills.
Sam Paladino Sam Paladino 6'3" | 280 lbs | OL Little Rock Catholic | 2025 State AR -Offensive Line-Little Rock Catholic-6’3” 275-Pounds
The state of Arkansas has plenty of talented offensive linemen that can work all along the offensive front. Sam Paladino Sam Paladino 6'3" | 280 lbs | OL Little Rock Catholic | 2025 State AR fits that description perfectly. Paladino works primarily at the center position, and he does an impressive job. He delivers snaps well, including shotgun snaps. Paladino has quick feet and gets into opposing defensive linemen quickly. The Little Rock Catholic center is a prospect to watch out for this upcoming season.
