<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><em>When subscribing feel free to use my code Frederick30 for a discount</em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Over 20 Prospects with offers:</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Including recent prospects such as [player_tooltip player_id='1667138' first='Cj' last='Gray'] out of Trinity Episcopal and [player_tooltip player_id='1695661' first='Sean' last='Tyler'] out of Saint James Academy, I counted 23 2028 student athletes with FCS level offers. This was a surprisingly deep group with over 50 kids on our watch list. Expect in our updates for this in November to have close to 60 prospects with scholarship opportunities.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Names to know before Week 0:</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>This looks like a very promising class overall but a few names I could see really taking off before kickoff. Patrice Mize from Woodberry Forrest looks like their next star linebacker, [player_tooltip player_id='1229884' first='Alexander' last='Mahmood'] is set to take over what should be a much improved Flint Hill school and [player_tooltip player_id='1508900' first='Jakhi' last='Hayden'] should form a tandem secondary with [player_tooltip player_id='1313465' first='Aviance' last='Young Jr.'] There will be more kids who stand out and see their stock rise, my co-workers will be going into detail throughout the week. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">All parts of the state are represented:</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>We have prospects ranked from North, South, East and the West side of the state in this update class. Oscar Smith, Saint James Academy, Osbourn and Stone Bridge appearing to have the most representation. Loudoun Sports Academy, Gainesville, Indian River and Warhill had more than three kids on the list. That is even more impressive for that last group of schools as most are new programs. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">What's next for Prep Redzone Virginia?</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>If you haven't noticed we have a number of talented writers in state that will be covering the rankings and upcoming team previews. For the rankings next up will be the 2026 class, this group will have likely 800 plus rankable prospects, expect it to debut by mid July. From their will attack our new 2029 class by early August with 50 or more kids. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Please note that we have a new Team Preview section added to the website, Cole Laing and I worked this last year and will have Robert King helping us next month. King has already joined the team and is going to be covering a ton of items in Southern Virginia. We will be working on the team previews by late July and have them available for you all August long. Finally will do another updated 2027 rankings by Week 0, with 20 plus prospects being added. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
