<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Antioch 2027 QB [player_tooltip player_id='378901' first='Andre' last='Adams']</h2>
<!-- /wp:heading -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>OFFERS: Memphis, Kentucky, Wisconsin, Purdue</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Standout Antioch quarterback [player_tooltip player_id='378901' first='Andre' last='Adams'] continues to rise up recruiting boards across the nation and that continued this month with four new college offers. Auburn practically re-offered with the new coaching staff in town as well and are projected to be one of the primary players in this recruitment as head coach Alex Golesh and his staff have connected well with the mid-state playmaker.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>He recently announced a top five list that consisted of Auburn, Cincinnati, Mississippi State, North Carolina State and Virginia Tech. The new coaching staff at Kentucky recently extended an offer and it will be interesting to see if new head coach Will Stein and his "feed the studs" mindset can get his program in the mix for this stud.</p>

<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>New Baylor quarterback [player_tooltip player_id='939950' first='Keegan' last='Croucher'] came down to the South and immediately added some new college interest, adding new offers from Arkansas and Tennessee, as well getting re-offered by the new staffs at Kentucky and Virginia Tech.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>The rising senior is currently committed to Ole Miss, but with Lane Kiffin leaving for LSU, his recruitment has seemingly become more open and will be a notable name on the quarterback market this year. </p>

<!-- /wp:heading -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>OFFERS: Boston College, Georgia State</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>[player_tooltip player_id='905003' first='Brayden' last='Santibanez'] is an electric quarterback in West Tennessee with a big arm and dynamic ability with his legs, making him a versatile weapon at the head of the Collierville offense.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Boston College has been one of the best scouting staffs in the nation this month at finding high-level under-the-radar prospects and they might have done it yet again as they just offered the rising senior. Georgia State extended an offer soon after, and with his name on the radar now, I fully expect him to add several more offers in the spring.</p>

<p>[player_tooltip player_id='424594' first='Graham' last='Simpson'] raw production at the high school level is becoming impossible for top college programs to ignore and three more blue-chip programs have now extended offers to the Westview standout.</p>
