<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Prep Redzone continues our breakdowns position by position in the state of Illinois.&nbsp; We continue with a look at the rising senior quarterbacks here in <strong>2025 Film Room: Northern Suburbs Quarterbacks Pt 1</strong>!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='252506' first='Patrick' last='Heneghan'] (New Trier – 5'11” 200)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The ball explodes off Heneghan's hand!&nbsp; Smooth and easy release with excellent footwork.&nbsp; He has touch on his passes to all levels and can throw any route!&nbsp; When he hits that back foot and lets it rip it is a thing of beauty!&nbsp; Accuracy on the deep ball is a strength of his and can run it in the RPO game.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='241121' first='Jackson' last='Alcorn'] (Burlington Central – 6'1” 200)<br></strong><br>Alcorn impressed me at a PRZ camp several years back when he was younger.&nbsp; Well built QB that has good accuracy on the run.&nbsp; High percentage on short throws.&nbsp; Smooth and easy release with good footwork in the pocket.&nbsp; Little bit of a wind up on release, but not too much. Pinpoint accuracy that reminds me of a rock solid point guard with great patience making the right decisions.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='830851' first='Colton' last='Gumino'] (Hersey – 6'2” 185)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Gumbino had 2,488 yards as a junior along with 35 throwing TDs while also contributing 5 on the ground.&nbsp; The ball absolutely explodes off hand. Wiry 6'2" signal caller is a good athlete who throws well on move. Makes good decisions overall. Good release and at time seems to twist his whole body into the throw.&nbsp; His deep ball is what really stood out.&nbsp; Especially off play action where he would float it right into the receivers arms with great accuracy.&nbsp; Consistently pushes it downfield on deep go routes, posts, or even deep crosses.&nbsp; Alot to like on film here!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='819668' first='Daniel' last='Van Camp'] (Lake Forest – 6'4” 230)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Van Camp as a junior threw for 1,405 yards and 13 touchdowns while also rushing for 88 yards and a pair of scores. While those numbers might not jump off the page his tape does.&nbsp; Great size at 6'4" 230 pounds.&nbsp; Hits his back foot and lets it rip! Easy release while having velocity on his throws.&nbsp; Can extend plays with his feet and throw off platform.&nbsp; Touch on his deep ball.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='537256' first='Mac' last='Jones'] (Deerfield – 5'11” 190)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Jones racked up 1,940 yards as a junior at Deerfield.&nbsp; Came away impressed with him on tape.&nbsp; Does a nice job at avoiding the rush.&nbsp; Very effective in the RPO game as a runner, thrower, and manipulating the defense with fakes. Solid arm strength and loves to throw to the corner of the endzone. Anticipates WR coming open letting it go before they are actually open. Drops ball in bucket on deep ball and overall is good at throwing across all levels.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='299511' first='Colin' last='Livatino'] (Evanston – 5'10” 180)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>This high academic QB threw for 1,600 yards and 14 TDs as a junior. Extremely fun tape to watch!&nbsp; He has a poor man's Baker Mayfield feel to his game. Does a lot of his work off schedule with similar movements and creativity.&nbsp; Isn't afraid to take some risks.&nbsp; Very good deep ball.&nbsp; Ball is easy coming out of his hand.&nbsp; Can step up in pocket and let it rip. Not always the best footwork in the pocket throwing off balance.&nbsp; Good runner that can make plays with his legs. Has some developmental upside and fits todays game.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
