[player_tooltip player_id='1674661' first='Braden' last='Biermann'] I 2029 I Parkway West I 5'11" 155 I - One of the most technically sound quarterbacks in the state regardless of class. Biermann is fun to watch with his understanding of the game, precision, and ability to make all the throws. He puts all those things together and looks automatic in every rep. It starts with his footwork and speed he plays at, followed by his ability to read his receiver, make a quick release, and ball placement on the money to make the catch easier for his target. His advanced knowledge of playing the position really showed at Mizzou camp. Seemed to have caught the attention of the Tiger coaches who were there. Look for a breakout season based on what was shown then and all summer long. Braden already has a few D1 offers, with more on the way in the not too distant future.   [player_tooltip player_id='1222934' first='Chase' last='Cooper'] I 2028 I De Smet I 6'3" 205 I - The quarterback who had the proto-typical look, size and swagger of a future D1 signal-caller was the junior-to-be Cooper. He backed that up with his performance at Mizzou camp and was among the best on the day. He had recently landed his first D1 offer from Missouri State at Lindenwood camp, and impressed coaches in attendance at this camp. Chase has a live arm and shows great ability on distance and accuracy with his deep throws. He had a big day showcasing the velocity and pop his ball has as it releases from his hand in a hurry. He also showed good accuracy in his short and intermediate throws on the day. He's a good athletic who has good quickness on his rollouts and good mobility. He's another young QB with a big season ahead.   [player_tooltip player_id='1598523' first='Brody' last='Jennings'] I 2028 I Holt I 6'4" 210 I - A young QB to watch in 2026 that will have his chance to show his impressive ability he has had the reputation of since middle school. Jennings has been a tireless trainer of his quarterback skills the last year, and his continued skills and ability he showed at Mizzou camp and this past off season means it's paid off to this point. Brody has great size and arm strength. He's become an efficient, poised and mechanically clean quarterback with good mobility and accuracy. He showed it all at Mizzou camp and was on the money as one of the best QBs overall on the day. Showed good touch and placement on his throws. Has really shown good maturity and leadership ability as a player.   [player_tooltip player_id='1743320' first='Landon' last='Dare'] I 2029 I St. Dominic I 6'3" 170 I - One of the most athletic young quarterback prospects at the Mizzou camp. Dare is a quick, agile athlete with some explosive quickness and power. Still pretty young, but has worked to develop the skills that college coaches will look for in the coming years. Should be in the thick of it at his schools QB competition. Landon had a very good day showcasing his impressive arm strength and accuracy with receivers. He also looked good in the drills, but it was his work in one on ones that stood out as he showed good composure and patience for his age and delivered the ball with good velocity and placement. Has above average technique.   [player_tooltip player_id='1587823' first='Elias' last='Taylor'] I 2029 I Rockhurst I 6'1" 185 I - Another 2029 looking to climb the ranks on his team. Unfortunately for Taylor, he has a returning senior who is entrenched at the position ahead of him. So he will most likely have to wait to have his turn at running the offense. Still, he's worth mentioning since he displays the kind of skills that would likely get him the starting spot at most high schools. He has good footwork and mechanics, a quick release, and was very accurate with his passes on the day. Elias is also a good athlete who can move. A name to remember for the future.
