Continue ReadingThe Class of 2024 in Texas has some of the top athletes in the country. The recruiting trail for this class has been one of hottest this offseason. Here are several recently committed ranked players in the Prep Redzone Texas rankings in the Class of 2024, who saw their stock rise and who have selected their college home at the next level.
Williams is a playmaking safety, who has great range, he has the speed to cover ground quickly and he has superb ball skills on the back end that enables him to close on the football quickly. Tice has excellent eye discipline that allows him to play fast, which enables him to read, diagnose and react to the football to shut down passing lanes. Williams runs the alleys with like his hair is on fire but under control, he takes proper angles to the ball carrier and he is a sure tackler in the open field. Tice had double digit offers from schools around the country, he was one of the hottest prospects this offseason and will take his talents to the blue turf at Boise State in 2024. Look for Williams to step on campus ready to make an immediate impact for the Broncos.

Highlights
Maiden has a big arm, he has quick whip-like release with a clean over the top delivery, he has a strong base when he sets up in the pocket and he navigates the pocket with great awareness. His footwork is clean and deliberate, he is erect in his drop back and he shows superb eye discipline in the pocket as he moves through his progressions. Arrington has the athleticism to make plays with his feet when the pocket breaks down, his ability to extend plays and make accurate throws on the roll out are traits that stick out in his game and he keeps defenses honest in the run game by making plays with his feet in the zone read game. Maiden lead College Station to the 5A Division I title game in 2022 only to come up short versus the Aledo Bearcats. He had a phenomenal season throwing for 2,279 and 18 touchdowns. Maiden had a strong offseason, as he saw his recruiting take off, accumulating double digit offers from schools around the country but ultimately committing to the University of Memphis. You can expect Maiden to have the Cougars back in the mix to make a deep playoff run before heading to Memphis.

Highlights
Goodacre has an extended reach, he has nimble feet with great hip bend and he has the frame that will be able to add bulk but retain his flexibility when he gets into a college program at the next level. Willie is physical at the point of attack, he has violent hands that he gets on his opponent quickly at engagement and he is one of the best finishers in the Class of 2024 and plays with a mean streak. Goodacre has great short area quickness, his technique at the point of attack is sharp and sound, he has superb hand placement and his piston-like leg drive allows him to win consistently blocking in the run game. He gets into his kick slide quickly with ease, he has a solid base, his footwork is clean and he uses his extended reach to deliver a stiff punch at engagement to get hands on defenders. Goodacre saw his recruiting profile take a steady climb this offseason, ending up with double digit offers from college programs from around the country. Willie recently committed to Syracuse University and with his skill set he will have the opportunity to compete for playing time early in 2024.

Highlights
Johnson has an explosive get off at the line of scrimmage, he has violent hands at engagement and he uses his extended arm reach to deliver a powerful, stiff punch at the point of attack to stun blockers. Tristan runs the arch well when he is rushing the passer, he has excellent hip bend and he closes on the ball carrier with violent intentions but plays fast and under control. Johnson has a versatile game with the skill set to line up at all four down linemen positions and attack offenses from all angles causing havoc. He plays the run using sound technique, Johnson plays with great leverage and his ability to shock and shed blockers quickly enables him to be disruptive. Tristan plays with a high motor, he is relentless in the trenches and plays from sideline to sideline. Johnson had double digit offers from schools around the country but recently committed to UTSA. The Roadrunners are getting a versatile, productive player who has the skill set to come in and compete early when he gets on campus in San Antonio.
