<p>I am not sure what more can be said about one of the most dominant field generals in the history of high school football here in Arkansas. He has put together another fantastic season for the Bulldogs. Up to this point in the season, Archer was 242 pf 321 for 2,959 yards and 26 touchdowns. Archer was just as effective running the football. Archer rushed for 1,022 yards and 24 touchdowns on the ground. Archer is a player with a bright future ahead of him at Utah.</p>

<p>[player_tooltip player_id='335132' first='Talan' last='Williams'] has gotten better each time he has stepped on the field for the Pioneers. He had a great senior season running the Gentry offense. Williams has always had an accurate arm, and he did a great job of showcasing it this season. Williams accounted for 3,063 total yards of the Gentry offense this season. He threw for 2,718 yards and 31 touchdowns through the air. Meanwhile, he had no problem picking up yards on the ground. Williams churned out 345 yards and five touchdowns on the ground. He is a player to watch out for at the next level.</p>

<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='382978' first='John' last='Thompson III']-Quarterback-Bentonville West-6'0” 170-Pounds</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>[player_tooltip player_id='382978' first='John' last='Thompson III'] is a signal caller who blew up from a recruiting perspective this season. He has proven to be a quarterback who can carve up opposing defenses using his arm or his legs. The 2025 season was a great indicator of that fact. During the 2025 season, Thompson III threw for 3,144 yards and 31 touchdowns. The Bentonville West signal caller did plenty of damage running the ball as well this season. He churned out 760 yards and 11 touchdowns on the ground. He will be a player to watch at Northeastern State over the next few years.</p>

<p><strong>Sedrick Bishop-Allen-Quarterback-Hot Springs-5'11” 170-Pounds</strong></p>

<p>Sedrick Bishop-Allen had a breakout season for the Hot Springs Trojans this season. Bishop-Allen picked apart opposing defenses using his arm as well as his legs. During the 2025 season, Bishop-Allen threw for 3,181 yards, 42 touchdowns, and three interceptions. However, he was not finished there. Bishop-Allen rushed 541 yards and 10 touchdowns. He is a dynamic athlete who has the potential to play at the next level.</p>

<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1351436' first='Wally' last='Wolcott']-Quarterback-Hot Springs Lakeside-6'0” 185-Pounds</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Wolcott is another prospect who has had a fantastic season his senior year. Wolcott is a signal caller who forces the opposing defense to account for him whether it is throwing or running the ball. Wolcott throws the football with accuracy and knows when to pull the ball down and take off with it. Wolcott threw for 3,144 yards, 28 touchdowns, and one interception. He tacked on 21 carries for 82 yards on the ground. Wolcott is another signal caller with the talent to play at the next level.</p>
