Early Signing Day Recap Pt. I

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='115533' first='Brandon' last='Phelps'], WR, ALA-Gilbert North <strong>(Arizona)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Phelps inked his NLI to the University of Arizona, and I personally think this is one of UofA's top signings of the year so far. Phelps has been a terrific receiver all 4 years at ALA-GN and possesses numerous intangibles to be able to make an immediate impact. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/arizonafball/status/1737479630225805780?s=43u0026amp;t=CHwVAtJaf7AJX4h6oaOkoQ","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/arizonafball/status/1737479630225805780?s=43&amp;t=CHwVAtJaf7AJX4h6oaOkoQ </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='115519' first='Demond' last='Williams'], QB, Basha<strong> (Arizona)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The top 2024 QB also signed with UofA, which is obviously a massive in-state land for the Wildcats. The dual threat accomplished everything you could think of at the high school level and has had scouts, media, and coaches raving about him for 4 years.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='364214' first='Luke' last='Moga'], QB, Sunnyslope <strong>(Oregon)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Moga inked his NLI to Oregon the other day, and will look to provide some immediate scout team assistance for their upcoming bowl game against Liberty. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='115509' first='Navi' last='Bruzon'], QB, Liberty <strong>(Arizona State)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Bruzon led Liberty to a Open Division State Title win here in 2023 and did absolutely everything he needed to do to earn a P5 opportunity. I'm ecstatic for Bruzon to get the opportunity at a high level, and truly think this was a great land by ASU. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='169426' first='Dylan' last='Lee'], RB, Williams Field (Iowa State) </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The big play threat and fast rising player inked his NLI to Iowa State and will leave his high school career in the Arizona state record books. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='217567' first='Adam' last='Mohammed'], RB, Apollo<strong> (Arizona)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Mohammed was an underrated kid for a while until he made it impossible to overlook him with his consistent explosive performances. Every time he touched the ball you'd hold your breath as he was bound to make something happen. Excellent vision, COD, and elite top end speed for sure big play ability, and will go down as one of the best to ever play at Apollo. Arizona gets a steal with this kid. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/ahawksfootball/status/1737568577132364278?s=43u0026amp;t=CHwVAtJaf7AJX4h6oaOkoQ","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/ahawksfootball/status/1737568577132364278?s=43&amp;t=CHwVAtJaf7AJX4h6oaOkoQ </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='662996' first='Matthew' last='Lado'], OL, Apollo<strong> (Arizona)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A tough kid to overlook at 6'9" 325lbs, and when you add his ability on top of his eye popping size, he's a "must" if you're any P5 school. Arizona lands yet another big time player which will be a great addition to their OL. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='662995' first='Michael' last='Watkins'], OL, Apollo <strong>(Arizona)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The third Apollo kid to join a vamped up 2024 Arizona recruiting class. The 6'3" 290lb interior OL possesses tremendous play strength and initiates contact with a great pad level. Both Watkins and Lado played a huge role in the success of Mohammed and that Apollo offense, now UofA gets that trio. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='583088' first='James' last='Giggey'], DL, Bradshaw Mountain <strong>(Arizona State)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Love that ASU threw their marbles in on a northern AZ kid. Giggey was an absolute game changer that possesses excellent play strength and physicality with a good football IQ, and still holds a ton of raw ability. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='169400' first='Sa'Kylee' last='Woodard'], OL, Canyon del Oro <strong>(New Mexico)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Woodard has been a top OL prospect in my eyes for a while now, and I think New Mexico might've just landed their biggest gem of their 2024 class. Woodard was a bully up front and a key difference maker on that 4A Championship squad. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
