6 unsigned seniors for colleges to check out | Offense

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Weeks after the opening of the traditional February signing period, several talented Louisiana athletes continue to look for college homes — including some potential Division-I talents.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Here's a look at six standouts from around the state still available on the offensive side of the ball to become late steals for the schools that land them.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='285273' first='Kobe' last='Brown'] — 5-10, 155 WR — St. James</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The Wildcats' standout has often been overlooked because of his smaller size, but has consistently disproved critics as a multisport standout who racked up 77 catches, 1,354 yards, 17 touchdowns and all-state honors in his final high school football season. BYU, Air Force and Mississippi Valley State have been among the programs to make late moves — whether P.W.O. or scholarship.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='675900' first='Dagan' last='Bruno'] — 6-2, 180 QB/ATH — John Curtis</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Bruno showed the athleticism and decision-making throughout his high school career to run his Patriots' veer option offense to perfection, including a state championship as a junior. But, when given the opportunity, he also showed a notable effectiveness as a passer that may make him a more well-rounded college prospect at his quarterback position than he has gotten credit for. Recent developments for Bruno include a visit Northwestern State, an offer from Culver-Stockton and the conclusion of his senior basketball season as one of his team's top players in that sport.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='677668' first='Bryce' last='Godfrey'] — 6-3, 270 OL — John Curtis</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Still looking for some help in the trenches? One of Louisiana's top offensive linemen — for a veer-running perennial power built as much as anyone on the strength of that position group — is still looking for a college home. Godfrey has been a versatile blocker up front and all-around leader for his Patriots, including back-to-back all-state selections and a 2022 state championship. Mississippi College hosted him on a late-February visit.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='902135' first='DeCareyn' last='Sampson'] — 5-11, 175 RB/ATH — Avoyelles </strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The Mustangs' speedster may have gotten somewhat overlooked this year at a smaller, rural program that had graduated a notable 2023 class, underwent a coaching transition this past offseason and then got off to a slow start overall. But Sampson still racked up more than 1,300 yards and 17 touchdowns as a follow-up to his junior campaign of nearly 2,800 yards for scrimmage and 36 touchdowns. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1202570' first='E.J.' last='Scott'] — 5-8, 150 WR — Alexandria </strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Scott caught 50 passes for 697 yards and nine touchdowns this fall, leading the team in all three categories, to earn all-district and all-metro recognitions. The small, but fast receiver showed the speed to stretch the field vertically, but also the quickness and route-running to use that threat to burn defenders on shorter and intermediate routes — an emergence that was pivotal in the Trojans' ascent during the course of the season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='285279' first='Brayden' last='Williams'] — 6-0, 190 QB — St. James</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>One of the most decorated members of the state's senior class is still looking for a college home. Williams completed nearly 63% of his passes for 2,494 yards, 30 touchdowns and five interceptions, plus another 697 yards and 15 touchdowns rushing, as a senior for a second straight all-state selection — this time as the Class 3A Offensive MVP. Navy has entered the picture late for the well-rounded student-athlete, but he is still weighing his options in a college football landscape where opportunities and rosters are both more fluid than ever.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
