Elijah Gardner
Elijah Gardner
Not many people know the name Elijah Gardner out of Judson HS and that’s only because he’s a freshman. At the end of his freshman season at Judson HS in Converse, Tx he was moved up to varsity where he looks to play a prominent role in 2024. Elijah is big, physical and catches the ball with his hands and knows how to catch the ball at its highest point. Gardner is a little raw but has the ability to run after the catch and also blocks very well and is always looking for work when the ball isn’t coming his way. Elijah doesn’t make a ton of quick cuts but does have the ability to stick his foot in the ground and make the first two defenders miss and always fights for extra yardage on contact. He’s a sure handed receiver with good hand placement when catching the ball. Would be a guy to watch develop over the next few months and years.

He goes by the name Zay 2 Shifty and for good reason. This 5’10 versatile WR can play in the slot as well on the outside with his for sure hands and mind blowing route running ability. Isaiah knows how to get in and out of his breaks at full speed while snapping his head around to locate the ball and makes every catch with his hands. Last season Champagne in just 10 games managed to rack up 1,014 yards for 9 touchdowns on 79 receptions and from the offseason he’s putting together I believe that number will increase drastically this fall after he puts together an impressive summer of camps and visits. Keep you eye on him.

Keith Tatum is looking to fill big shoes left in his hands from standout WR/DB Brandon Castillo who played a major role in that Floresville tide on both sides of the ball last season. Tatum is like a Swiss Army knife when it comes to his on the field ability being able to play in the slot as well as has the ability to play corner or safety. Tatum is putting the work in this offseason which can only translate to his on field play this fall. When you watch Tatum play you can tell he plays with a little bit of a chip on his shoulder which shows when he’s running routes because he uses that edge to be able to pull away from defenders at the top of his routes. Looking forward to seeing what type of senior campaign he can put together this season.

Cade Galyon
Cade Galyon
When you turn on Galyons tape you’ll see that he’s one snap, one catch, one route away from hitting a home run because he’s that dynamic of a prospect with the ball in his hands. Cade knows how to use his body, his hands, his feet and his field awareness to get open and make plays. A sure handed WR out of Castroville, Tx Cade has everything it takes to get to the next level. If he can put together a solid summer camp circuit there’s no reason he shouldn’t return back to school this fall without an offer or few.

Adonis Arch
Adonis Arch
In an explosive Claudia Johnson offense spearheaded by none other than TCU commit Ty Hawkins Ty Hawkins 6’0″ | 185 lbs | QB San Antonio Johnson | 2025 State TX , Adonis Arch looks to make a jump to varsity this fall and play whatever role he can to see the field. This offseason Adonis has managed to work on his game not only as a WR but a little bit of DB as well. Arch primary position is most definitely wide receiver as he has very soft hands to the catch, knows how to snatch the ball out of the air, and has a nice package of route running ability to his name. Even if Adonis doesn’t play a major role this fall, the experience for him alone is going to make him even more dangerous when he heads into his senior year. Keep your eye on Adonis this summer as he looks to put together an impressive camp season come May and June.
