The talented DB out of Sierra Vista has steadily been putting his name on the 2026 radar with the raw athleticism he showed as a junior and has continued to perform well at recent offseason events. He's an explosive, fast-twitch athlete that can make plays on the ball with his anticipation, reaction time, and burst coming out of the break. Changes direction in a hurry, is quick to chew up space, and possesses the speed and fluidity to turn and run with deep routes. Inouye- who was a new addition to PRZ NV's 2026 rankings in the December update- will again be rising up the board in the next upcoming release.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:html --> <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Blessed and excited to receive my first D1 offer from <a href="https://twitter.com/ASUFootball?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@ASUFootball</a> and <a href="https://twitter.com/mvp86hinesward?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@mvp86hinesward</a> <a href="https://t.co/QfWFh2PTLG">pic.twitter.com/QfWFh2PTLG</a></p>&mdash; Kaison”Kai Kai”Inouye (@Kaison_2007) <a href="https://twitter.com/Kaison_2007/status/1897765684547141761?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">March 6, 2025</a></blockquote> <!-- /wp:html --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["402184"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-67cac250f378f"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Cox just picked up his first collegiate offer from D-II Minot St. this week. He's a versatile playmaker that fills multiple roles on both sides of the ball for Shadow Ridge and will likely find a home as a DB at the next level. Primarily deployed as a safety but showed some promising traits as a perimeter CB last season as well. Skilled athlete with the range to play single-high and the speed to match up with perimeter athlete. Fast and efficient to the football and brings great upside to the secondary in his ability to tackle in space. Look for Cox to turn his D-II offer into some FCS interest over the coming months.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:html --> <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">After a GREAT call with <a href="https://twitter.com/CoachFam?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@CoachFam</a> I am blessed to say I have EARNED an Offer from <a href="https://twitter.com/MSUBeaversFB?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@MSUBeaversFB</a> !! <a href="https://twitter.com/defendtheridge?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@defendtheridge</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/702HSFB?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@702HSFB</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/Coachstevecox?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@Coachstevecox</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/CoachAnguay_ISU?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@CoachAnguay_ISU</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/CoachTWebb?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@CoachTWebb</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/coach_moynahan?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@coach_moynahan</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/NFsoCrucial?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@NFsoCrucial</a><a href="https://twitter.com/CoachDrew808?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@CoachDrew808</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/CoachClark?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@coachclark</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/coachrdaley?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@coachrdaley</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/CoachFam?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@CoachFam</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/UR_CoachGood?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@UR_CoachGood</a><a href="https://twitter.com/UR_CoachMariani?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@UR_CoachMariani</a>… <a href="https://t.co/UcGd2dY4Vx">pic.twitter.com/UcGd2dY4Vx</a></p>&mdash; [player_tooltip player_id='402184' first='Stetson' last='Ula Cox'] (@Cox1Ula) <a href="https://twitter.com/Cox1Ula/status/1896986642679808059?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">March 4, 2025</a></blockquote> <!-- /wp:html --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1343857"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-67cac250f37d6"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Hummel, the #5 ATH in PRZ NV's 2026 ranks, just picked up his first offer from Army on Wednesday. The 6'/165 junior put together another productive season on both sides of the ball for Spanish Springs this past season with over 1,100 total yards and 10 TDs on offense and 63 total tackles and 4 INTs on defense. Strong, natural athlete at 6'1"/185 that brings tremendous ball skills and physicality to the secondary as a FS. Can dominate 1v1 matchups on the perimeter with strong hands and high-point ability as a WR. Hummel- a two-sport athlete in football and basketball- should start to gain some traction on the D-I recruiting trail with his first offer in hand.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:html --> <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Beyond blessed and excited to announce my first D1 offer from The Army University!

He's a rising young freshman out of Bishop Gorman that possesses the size (6'2"/205), frame, and physicality to develop into one of the top defenders in his class over the coming seasons. Played a SS/OLB role for the Gaels' JV team last season and will be an exciting player to watch as he continues to grow and improve at the varsity level.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:html --> <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">After a great conversation with coastal Carolina I am blessed and honored to receive my 3 D1 offer <a href="https://twitter.com/BallAtTheBeach?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@BallAtTheBeach</a> @coachmiller252 <a href="https://twitter.com/PrepRedzoneNV?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@PrepRedzoneNV</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/adamgorney?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@adamgorney</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/MaxPreps?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@MaxPreps</a> <a href="https://t.co/VUAIX2EXgp">pic.twitter.com/VUAIX2EXgp</a></p>&mdash; [player_tooltip player_id='1632112' first='Ky-Mani' last='Blas-Barlow'] (@kymo_sabi13) <a href="https://twitter.com/kymo_sabi13/status/1897468087345062036?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">March 6, 2025</a></blockquote> <!-- /wp:html --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1617055"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-67cac250f3853"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Newcomb just picked up his first offer from Sacramento St. at the end of February. The breakout freshman out of Desert Pines put his name on the D-I radar with the combination of size (6'2"/260), athleticism, and physicality he showed in the fall. Strong and disruptive DE that can create pressure off the edge and blow up outside run. Totaled 36 tackles, 7 TFLs, and a sack as a freshman. Newcomb will be among the top-ranked DL when PRZ NV's 2028 rankings debut comes out. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:html --> <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">After a great conversation with coach <a href="https://twitter.com/CJPollard1?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@cjpollard1</a> I am extremely blessed to say I have received my first D1 offer from Sacramento State ALL GLORY TO GOD .<br><br>-<br><br>-<br><br>-<br><br>-<a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/SACRAMENTOSTATE?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#SACRAMENTOSTATE</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/SACSTATE?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#SACSTATE</a> <a href="https://t.co/cQPh6hh1pv">pic.twitter.com/cQPh6hh1pv</a></p>&mdash; ELIJAH NEWCOMB (#44) (@NewcombEli84926) <a href="https://twitter.com/NewcombEli84926/status/1893519821448307094?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">February 23, 2025</a></blockquote> <!-- /wp:html --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
