The Gaels' leading receiver showed his explosive speed after the catch and ability to create space as a route-runner on several long touchdowns. He's scheduled to take a visit to Minnesota this weekend amidst a highly productive senior season so far. Watson's totaled 632 yards and 5 TDs on 33 catches this season. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/4_kaina/status/1975311424835744087","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/4_kaina/status/1975311424835744087 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1110893"],"_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-68e6a0f9b820f"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Bonnett scored 5 TDs on all 5 of his catches for 231 yards in Foothill's win over Basic. The state's seventh-ranked wideout showed his playmaking ability on both deep concepts and short routes on the goal-line and has been on the radar as one of the more explosive playmakers at the position since his breakout junior season in 2024. Bonnett leads the state in receiving yards with 787 and 12 TDs on 42 catches. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/bbonnett15/status/1974978117187023323","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/bbonnett15/status/1974978117187023323 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["803284"],"_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-68e6a0f9b82c4"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Thatcher completed 15/18 passes for 273 yards and 4 TDs in Arbor View's 49-6 win over Centennial on Friday. The top junior QB prospect in the state has shown great development in his arm strength with increased power and velocity behind his deep ball on film this season. He's a highly accurate passer that can operate from the pocket and pick up chunks of yards with his legs when plays break down. Thatcher has been committed to Utah since the spring.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/ThaddeusThatch1/status/1974894742002606163","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/ThaddeusThatch1/status/1974894742002606163 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1855145"],"_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-68e741ddcf429"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Dobbs passed for 425 yards and 8 TDs in Foothill's 68-27 win over Basic on Friday. The Falcons' standout sophomore showed impressive touch and accuracy on the deep ball and managed pocket pressure well. He's a lanky, athletic passer at 6'3"/180 that moves well and packs great upside in his natural tools and arm talent. Dobbs has passed for over 1,300 yards and 21 TDs with only 2 INTs on the season. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/RyderDobbs/status/1975035441578647682","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/RyderDobbs/status/1975035441578647682 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">More Standouts</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1600138' first='Brandon' last='Belyeu'] (EDGE / 2027 / Silverado) - 4 tackles, 3 sacks, 4 TFLs&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1660285' first='Makai' last='Miller'] (RB / 2027 / Durango) - 5 carries, 93 yards, 2 TDs; 2 catches, 85 yards, TD</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1598519' first='Takoda' last='Bliss'] (EDGE / 2027 / Durango) - 10 total tackles, 1 sack, 4 TFLs&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1608606' first='Felix' last='Romero'] (RB / 2028 / Clark) - 10 carries, 158 yards, 4 total TDs&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1579681' first='Andres' last='Pollard'] (ATH / 2026 / Clark) - 4 catches, 141 yards, 3 TDs&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='563625' first='Ezra' last='Sanelivi'] (RB / 2027 / Liberty) - 19 carries, 163 yards, TD&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1644987' first='Christopher' last='Fernandez'] (LB / 2026 / Las Vegas) - 14 tackle, 2 TFLs, 1 sack</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1660290' first='Iyan' last='Bosket'] (LB / 2027 / Pahrump Valley) - 13 tackles, 2 TFLs</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='917750' first='Maika' last='Eugenio'] (QB / 2026 / Bishop Gorman) - 11/15, 350 yards, 5 TDs&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1144000' first='Isaiah' last='Ruiz'] (DB / 2027 / Shadow Ridge) - 17 carries, 155 yards, 2 TDs</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1940712' first='Bo' last='Hackenbruck'] (DB / 2027 / Green Valley) - 5 tackles, INT, FR, TD</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1608589' first='Simote' last='Tupou'] (EDGE / 2028 / Pinecrest Academy Sloan Canyon) - 10 total tackles, 2 sacks, 7 TFLs&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='940680' first='James' last='Monaghan IV'] (QB / 2027 / Mater Academy East Las Vegas) - 14/16, 355 yards, TD </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1576893' first='Kwes' last='Young'] (WR / 2026 / Mater Academy East Las Vegas) - 4 catches, 160 yards, 3 TDs</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
