Key AZ Departures

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Unfortunately, Arizona has seen some highly ranked players transfer out of state. Here's a look on which players have transferred out of state and the programs that will look for others to fill in some big roles: <img class="wp-image-1336856" style="width: 300px" src="https://prepredzone.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/3/2023/06/PRZGeneric-4-crop-823x540-1708307905-crop-640x420-1721239381.jpg" alt=""></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='402854' first='Judah' last='Lancaster'], TE, Tolleson/ <strong>IMG Academy '27 (Florida)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The highly decorated TE out of Tolleson is part of a chunk of players heading somewhere else, as Lancaster will head to IMG Academy in Florida. The 6'4" 200lb pass catcher holds around 21 offers and quickly became one of the highest recruited players not only in Arizona but the country, and it'll be interesting to see which program will end up landing him. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1189924' first='Clarence' last='Tucker'], DB, Tolleson/ <strong>Edison '26 (Florida)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Another top prospect out of Tolleson will head out to Florida, except Tucker will move to Miami and play at Edison High School. Tucker holds around 12 offers thus far but I have no doubt he'll end up being a 20+ offer kid, as he'll make an immediate impact for that Edison D. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='282712' first='Tagg' last='Harrison'], QB, Tolleson/ <strong>Simi Valley '25 (California)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Harrison tranferred a few months back, as he'll head out to Cali and play at Simi Valley High school. Harrison currently holds offers from Ole Miss and Louisville. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Hezekiah Millender</strong>, QB, Desert Edge/ <strong>Clarke Central '25 (Georgia)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>This one put the boom throughout the entire state, as Millender has moved east out to Georgia and will play at Clarke Central. Millender was one of my top QB's given his quick, snappy release and dual threat ability to change the game on the ground or through the air. I think Millender's potential and ceiling are off the charts, and he'll get a great opportunity to test himself against a ton of P4 competition in such a good football state like Georgia. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='954389' first='Diesel' last='Taylor'], QB, Perry/ <strong>Del Norte '25(California)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>News broke that Taylor is heading out to San Diego and transferring to Del Norte High School. Taylor was amongst the top ranked QB's in the 2025 class that helped turn the Perry program around along with coach Ortiz. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Greg Toler</strong>, WR, Highland/ <strong>Bishop Gorman '25 (Nevada)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Toler announced that he is transferring to Bishop Gorman in Nevada. This is a huge blow to the Highland offense as Toler is your sure big play threat and the fastest kid in the state. Despite his handful of offers, I still feel like he's a very underrated kid and can compete with any other 4-5 star WR. He'll get a big opportunity to play for a national powerhouse and showcase what he can bring to the table on a national level. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/GTJ3_/status/1812580347516964916","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/GTJ3_/status/1812580347516964916 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='739168' first='Phoenix' last='Jenkins'], OL, Saguaro/ <strong>Los Alamitos '27 (California) </strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Jenkins is also heading out to Cali as he'll transfer to a frequent contender in Los Alamitos High School. The 6'7" 320lb LT will be a massive addition to Los Al where he'll continue to open eyes and sky rocket his stock the next couple seasons. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='368915' first='Toby' last='Mealer'], OL, Hamilton/ <strong>Lone Peak '25 (Utah)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Hamilton loses a key big man along that OL, as Mealer will play for Lone Peak High School up in Utah. Mealer was a top ranked offensive lineman in our PRZ Arizona rankings as I'm sure he'll earn a high spot in those Utah ranks as well. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
