He finishes his high school career as the state's top 2024 QB prospect and he's been consistently that over the last several seasons. After making a name for himself at Bishop McGuinness, Warren spent his senior season at Del City and was one of the most efficient quarterbacks in the state. That's what we wanted to see from the standout signal caller. Because he was not going to have a shortage of talent around him. We wanted to see just how efficient and productive he could be and he answered the call.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_player":["215199"],"_player_evaluations_1_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"Jones quarterback [player_tooltip player_id='215199' first='Clayton' last='Creasey'] is the latest example of the Jones quarterback pipeline. This program is one of the state's absolute best at producing quarterbacks that excel and end up at the next level. After backing up D1 signee Carson May and playing a different position, Creasey would take over at QB1 and was one of the state's best. Creasey is a very athletic quarterback that didn't have to lean on that athleticism by becoming a run-first quarterback. Creasey would use that skillset to extend plays and always kept his eyes down field. It feels like Creasey's best football is ahead of him at UCO.","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_player":["127357"],"_player_evaluations_2_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_2_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_2_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"Similar to Creasey and Jones, Lincoln Christian has routinely produced some of the state's best quarterbacks. [player_tooltip player_id='127357' first='Luke' last='Milligan'] is the latest example of that as he took over for D1 signee Max Brown and the Bulldogs did not take a step back offensively. Milligan led a Lincoln Christian offense that really leaned on their offensive line with a dominating rushing attack. He wasn't asked to do as much as some of the other quarterbacks on this breakdown but we've seen enough of him over the last three years to know that he belongs as one of the best of the best. Milligan is headed to NSU for the next level.","_player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_3_player":["360243"],"_player_evaluations_3_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_3_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_3_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"Chandler quarterback [player_tooltip player_id='360243' first='Alec' last='Jackson'] is headed to NEO and going the junior college route and we believe he'll end up moving on to a higher level in a year or two. Jackson was one of the state's best quarterbacks during the 2023 season but had it end prematurely with a season-ending injury. Once Jackson gets healthy, he's going to have the potential to be a game changer at the next level. Jackson is a very physical quarterback that is just as dangerous when he tucks and runs. There's a lot of untapped athleticism in his game and we're looking forward to seeing what he looks like when he's healthy.","_player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_4_player":["334118"],"_player_evaluations_4_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_4_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_4_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_4_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_4_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"Sapulpa quarterback [player_tooltip player_id='334118' first='Colton' last='Howard'] is certainly on the short list for the most improved prospect in the state's 2024 class. Howard moved to Sapulpa prior to his junior season and became an instant impact player for the Chieftains. He had a really strong junior season in 2022 and then took his game to another level in 2023. As a senior, Howard led a very talented Sapulpa offense that put up a lot of points. Howard can absolutely spin it and he's going to be a name to watch at the next level. Howard committed to Emporia State and should have a steady career there if his high school career was any indication.","_player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_5_player":["215208"],"_player_evaluations_5_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_5_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_5_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_5_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_5_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_5_evaluation":"There aren't many quarterbacks in the state, regardless of class or level of play, that have a better list of accolades than [player_tooltip player_id='215208' first='Major' last='Cantrell'] out of Washington. Cantrell helped lead the Warriors to back to back state championships and would finish his career with a 44-1 record as QB1. Cantrell emerged as one of the state's best players in 2023 as he led Washington to a second straight state title and perfect season. In December, Cantrell committed to Iowa State after a visit and it wouldn't be surprising to see him climb the depth chart. There is no doubt that he is a winner and we're fired up to see what's next for him.","_player_evaluations_5_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_6_player":["154217"],"_player_evaluations_6_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_6_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_6_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_6_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_6_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_6_evaluation":"Oklahoma Christian School quarterback [player_tooltip player_id='154217' first='Garret' last='Wilson'] might be the most productive quarterback of this group when you consider all four years. Wilson is also one of the winningest quarterbacks in this class and he's headed to Oklahoma State for college. Wilson has been a pretty consistent talent at the quarterback position over the last several seasons. But he took his game to a completely new level as a senior as he looked to guide the Saints to a state championship. Wilson put up some of the best numbers in the state when you look at the touchdown to interception ratio and he was rarely contained.","_player_evaluations_6_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_7_player":["110745"],"_player_evaluations_7_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_7_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_7_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_7_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_7_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_7_evaluation":"Owasso quarterback [player_tooltip player_id='110745' first='Knox' last='Dyson'] finished off a whirlwind high school career by rewriting the record book in 2023. Dyson's journey is one you don't see often. Freshman year at Owasso, sophomore year at Union, junior year at Beggs and senior year back at Owasso. Dyson made the most of his opportunity in 2023 and was one of the state's top passers. There's no doubt when you look at this breakdown that Dyson is one of the more improved quarterbacks in the class. His arrow is definitely pointing up as he heads to the next level. The Owasso signal caller earned an opportunity to head to the next level at LSU.","_player_evaluations_7_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_8_player":["363852"],"_player_evaluations_8_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_8_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_8_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_8_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_8_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_8_evaluation":"Blanchard quarterback [player_tooltip player_id='363852' first='Carson' last='Cooksey'] is the third state champion on this breakdown. Cooksey led the Lions to a 4A state championship as they knocked off defending champ Wagoner in the title game. All season, Cooksey was one of, if not the very best quarterback in Class 4A. He put up monster numbers and took advantage of a very talented and deep receiver group. He spread the love around and was hard to defend because he knew where to go with the ball and when. Cooksey is joining Jackson at NEO and just like the Chandler standout, Cooksey will have a good chance to move on from NEO in a few years.","_player_evaluations_8_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_9_player":["154215"],"_player_evaluations_9_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_9_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_9_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_9_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_9_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_9_evaluation":"Newcastle quarterback [player_tooltip player_id='154215' first='Jackson' last='Bergt'] is another example of a very experienced signal caller within this class. Bergt got on our radar as a freshman and he's stayed on there ever since. One thing that impresses us about his game is the steady improvement that he showed over the last few seasons. And the team success mirrored that improvement as Newcastle became one of the better teams in Class 4A. And as Bergt gets ready to head to the next level, the Racers are a team to watch moving forward as Bergt has left them in a good position moving forward in 2024. He signed with Oklahoma Baptist.","_player_evaluations_9_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":10,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-65de601ddb7b1"} /--> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
