<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><em>Friendly reminder when subscribing to use my code Frederick30 for a discount</em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Trinity Episcopal Khalid Rainier remains Number 1 overall</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>For the second year in a row All World Defensive Back Khalid Rainier took our number 1 ranking and it is well earned. Rainier has over 20 Power 4 schools chasing him and has continued to stand out and shut down opposing wideouts this past season. Michigan, Syracuse and Penn State are among the many colleges pursuing him, will any of these institutions get him to commit before season's end is the bigger question?</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/Khalid_Rainer/status/1858887969068691879","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/Khalid_Rainer/status/1858887969068691879 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Quarterback room is loaded!</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Not including recently transferred Denari Hill, the quarterback group for this 2027 is quite impressive. [player_tooltip player_id='521793' first='Lonnie' last='Andrews'], [player_tooltip player_id='1170697' first='Luke' last='Gaither'], [player_tooltip player_id='1313460' first='Kevin' last='Parker'], [player_tooltip player_id='1311682' first='Maurikus' last='Banks'] and [player_tooltip player_id='1115083' first='Kash' last='Carter'] all have offers and their are over 10 quarterbacks in this class with a FCS grade or higher. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Poquoson's [player_tooltip player_id='1251398' first='Carter' last='Jones'] bolts into our Top 5</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1251398' first='Carter' last='Jones'] leaped from 11th last year to 5th overall in our new 2027 class rankings. Since debuting right before our rankings last year Jones has seen his stock soar with offers ranging from Kentucky, Clemson and South Carolina! I went back and reviewed what we wrote last year about him and it turns out we were right. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='1535249' first='Noah' last='Glover']/[player_tooltip player_id='1311634' first='Kenaz' last='Sullivan']/[player_tooltip player_id='1669686' first='Armand' last='Stevens'] make huge debuts</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>All three players are Power 4 football players and have made quantum leaps from a year ago. Battlefield outside linebacker [player_tooltip player_id='1535249' first='Noah' last='Glover'] debut at 11th overall, he is a 6'2 rangy playmaker with over 10 FBS offers. North Stafford baller [player_tooltip player_id='1311634' first='Kenaz' last='Sullivan'] has stormed onto the scene and checks in at 21st, while John Paul's [player_tooltip player_id='1669686' first='Armand' last='Stevens'] leaps into our number 1 running back position.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Remember these names</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1601611' first='Baum' last='Hogge'], [player_tooltip player_id='1530465' first='D'angelo' last='Duarte'] and [player_tooltip player_id='1311644' first='Jamaree' last='Horton'] either debuted are saw their rankings rise in our latest class. All three are Division 1 football players in my opinion and will show you this fall why I was right. Currently Hogge and Horton hold one offer a piece and Duarte's are coming soon, all three deserved their spots and could see their stock riser even higher come August.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">What to expect next from PRZ Virginia?</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>In the next couple of weeks Cole Laing, Ed O'Brien and myself will be breaking down our newly ranked class thoroughly. Expect multiple articles on each position groups, including stock risers, who we missed and who is set to soar in our next rankings. By mid-month we expect to have our new 2028 class completed and will then update our loaded 2026 group hopefully before July 4th. From their expect a brand new 2029 class and a potential updated 2027 class edition right before week 1. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
