<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>From a scouting lens, several class of 2028 QBs around the state stand out not just for production, but for translatable traits, mechanics, processing, athletic profile, and competitive makeup. These are quarterbacks who are ahead of the developmental curve after their sophomore seasons, and several project to see meaningful recruiting acceleration over the next 12–18 months.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1953512"],"_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-697d42dea56c9"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Broussard is one of the more intriguing evaluations in this class right now. The numbers are strong, but the tape reveals a QB who understands how to manage a game. He's comfortable climbing the pocket, keeps his eyes downfield, and shows natural feel as both a runner and passer.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">His deep-ball touch is a separator, he doesn't just throw it far, he throws it catchable. College programs should prioritize seeing him live this offseason. With continued refinement in timing concepts and anticipatory throws, his ceiling rises quickly.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/Blake_Brou/status/1995233165968015569?s=20","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/Blake_Brou/status/1995233165968015569?s=20 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1001633"],"_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-697d42dea5752"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Stansbury is a traits-based evaluation, and those traits are real. The frame is college-ready, and his ability to generate power without overswinging is impressive for his age. He throws with rhythm and shows an understanding of sequencing reads, even with limited varsity reps.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">The next step for Stansbury is volume and command, more snaps, more situational football. Once he gets a full season as the guy, expect rapid development. This is a quarterback whose stock could rise sharply once exposure and reps catch up with the tools.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/WestStansbury/status/1991888673772839042?s=20","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/WestStansbury/status/1991888673772839042?s=20 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1633940"],"_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-697d42dea57b0"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Adolphe brings explosive athleticism combined with real passing growth. He's not just a runner playing quarterback, he throws well on the move, maintains balance on rollouts, and shows confidence attacking vertically. His footwork has improved, and his hips stay engaged through release, which helps his accuracy.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">What I like most is his trajectory. He was impactful early, helped Huntsville win, and continues to add layers to his game. Expect recruiting traction to increase as he stacks consistency in the pocket and continues to show progressions against structured defenses.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/Zay_Adolphe28/status/1994229135875391975?s=20","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/Zay_Adolphe28/status/1994229135875391975?s=20 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1140361"],"_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-697d42dea580c"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Warren is an extremely polished passer. His pocket presence is superb, he understands spacing, timing, and how to manipulate defenders with his eyes. Accuracy across the route tree is a strength, and he throws with confidence in tight windows.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Physically, there's room to add weight, but that's a positive projection note rather than a concern. His live arm and composure in big moments (state title run in 2025) point to a quarterback who elevates his level when the stage gets bigger. He's a high-floor evaluation with upside still ahead.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/DonoQb/status/2013437209693528523?s=20","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/DonoQb/status/2013437209693528523?s=20 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1271068"],"_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-697d42dea5866"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Morgan checks a lot of early boxes you want to see in a high-level Texas QB. He plays in a demanding system, against playoff-level competition, and shows functional arm strength with athletic upside. What jumps out on film is how consistent his base remains, even when pressured. He doesn't panic, and his release stays compact.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">From a projection standpoint, Morgan profiles as a quarterback who will benefit greatly from physical maturation. As his frame fills out, his velocity and drive throws should take another step. The competitive background at Guyer matters, he's already accustomed to expectation, preparation, and postseason football. That's not insignificant.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/CarterMorgan_TX/status/2011956849579348218?s=20","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/CarterMorgan_TX/status/2011956849579348218?s=20 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->

From a scouting lens, several class of 2028 QBs around the state stand out not just for production, but for translatable traits, mechanics, processing, athletic profile, and competitive makeup. These are quarterbacks who are ahead of the developmental curve after their sophomore seasons, and several project to see meaningful recruiting acceleration over the next 12–18 months.
