Blake Ivy Blake Ivy 6'4" | 270 lbs | OL Clear Springs | 2024 State TX was nasty this Spring for Clear Springs and was a chef when it came to creating pancakes. He looks to be up in weight and shows that he has been living in the weight room. Once he gets hands on its pretty much a foregone conclusion that he’ll stay engaged. He looks to finish every play with a pancake and has surprisingly nimble feet for a young man his size. After hitting the weights this Spring, look for Ivy to play a dominant role in pass pro next season and be a candidate for the early signing period.
KEONDE HENRY
WIDE RECEIVER •6’3″ | 185 LBS I CLASS OF 2024 @ LAKE DALLAS | CORINTH, TX
Keonde Henry is ready for August in May! His size was unchallenged when it came down to him going up and getting the ball out of the air this Spring. He has the size at a verified 6’3, speed, and hands to go up and snatch the ball out of the air. He tracks the ball and completes the catch with his eyes making even the bobbled balls catchable. Highlight after highlight makes Henry a prime candidate to shoot up the rankings in state and nationally for the 2023-24 season. Henry is also a YAK artist possessing the skills to break initial tackles and extend plays. Ultimately, a receiver like Henry is a quarterback’s best friend because he embodies what the position requires in size, skillset, and effort.
ATHLETE •5’11” | 190 LBS I CLASS OF 2024 @ TIMPSON SCHOOL | TIMPSON, TX
Terry Bussey Terry Bussey 6'0" | 180 lbs | ATH Timpson | 2024 State TX Is a beast! He is a gamechanger and the program is going to put even more on his shoulders for his senior campaign. Look for him to dominate on both sides of the ball and show senior leadership just as he did in the Spring workouts. You’ll see on film how he impacts the scoreboard on both offense and defense from the slot and safety positions. Bussey runs with power due to his 190-plus pound frame and is simply a true football player in every sense of the phrase. The question is still which side of the ball will he be most effective on?
OFFENSIVE TACKLE •6’5″ | 300 LBS I CLASS OF 2024 @ RICK REEDY HIGH SCHOOL | FRISCO, TX
Max Anderson Max Anderson 6'4" | 285 lbs | OL Reedy | 2024 State TX is your quintessential swing tackle. He did not disappoint in Spring ball for Rick Reedy. He looks to have chiseled up his bulky frame and has added a more refined jolting punch to all rushers. He can play either left or right tackle with ease and possesses the proper kick slide-to-punch technique from both angles. He primarily worked from the blind side position signifying that he can be trusted to protect the quarterback and state playoff hopes for 2023. Anderson is a savvy blocker who knows how to naturally redirect and reposition his body. He stands strong when engaged and holds his ground well due to being a knee bender instead of a waist bender.
