These young men all had quality junior seasons for their respective programs. However, they’re still looking for their recruitment to take that next step and it could happen in the blink of an eye. Keep an eye on these guys throughout the summer camp season and into their senior campaigns.

Tykell Hammers, 6’1″ 195, Quincy
Outstanding production in 2023, accounting for 1,028 receiving yards and 15 touchdowns. This young man is dynamite after the catch, he’s rarely brought down by the first defender and is a natural hands catcher who looks the football into the tuck. His double moves are crisp & deceptive and he’s a major weapon in the screen game.
Jimmy Maxson III, 6’4″ 190, Brother Rice
Size, excellent hand-eye coordination through traffic, and sneaky build-up speed are a few key traits of Mr. Maxson. His long strides allow him to get on a defensive back’s toes in a hurry and force them out of their pedal. He knows how to use his long arms and big frame to separate late and go up & get the football.
Isaiah Brown Isaiah Brown 6'1" | 160 lbs | WR Batavia | 2025 IL 6’1″ 170, Batavia
A crafty route runner who can take the top off just about any defense. Brown knows how to get a defensive back to open his hips, allowing him to stick his foot in the dirt and accelerate to the third level. He shoots his hands late on the go ball, shows impressive burst on out cuts, and is a major mismatch if left 1 on 1 on the outside.
Charlie Snoreck Charlie Snoreck 6'1" | 180 lbs | WR Sandburg | 2025 State IL 6′ 170, Sandburg
Snoreck is another prospect who put up impressive numbers in 2023, accounting for 1,153 yards receiving and 11 touchdowns. He’s patient against press, allowing for the defender to tip their cards. He’s got hands like glue and shows the body control to adjust back to the football on poor throws. He’s a major mismatch working against linebackers in the slot and is a fearless competitor when the football is in the air.
Griffen Becker Griffen Becker 6'4" | 180 lbs | WR Breese Central | 2025 IL 6’4″ 170, Breese Central
A lengthy z receiver prospect that is a punishing perimeter blocker and can go up and make a play on 1 on 1 throws in the redzone. He’s violent with his hands against press, he tracks the ball well on deep shots and turns into a physical runner after the catch. I love this kid’s toughness and think he could be a steal for someone.
