Winona State Prospect Camp: Standouts, Part II

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>WINONA, MN--</strong>We keep our scouting legs churning into Part II of our standouts from the Winona State prospect camp that took place last Friday afternoon at Altra Federal Credit Union Stadium, home of the Warriors. With around 125 players in attendance, there was a lot of talent for us to see, from new incoming freshmen (2026s) all the way to those incoming seniors (2023s) clinging to get more attention, offers that resemble their fit for the next level. We take yet again a Midwest approaching with Part II as this list has prospects from Central MN, Southern MN, Chicago Suburbs, Sioux Falls Suburbs, and rural NE Iowa. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"id":"block_62ec6f353f659","name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"Landon Chilman","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"2025","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"5'10u0022","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"2495","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"Southland (MN)","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_0_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"Landon was a young defensive back prospect that showed some early signs of the potential that might be there in the future at the Winona State prospect camp.  I was impressed with his on-ball tracking skills in the first look I got of him as a DB prospect. I also thought he showed off sneaky physicality on the limited reps I watched in Indy drills. Landon is a PRZ prospect we shall stay tuned to see how he develops out of what we saw in Winona as he hopefully gets tape into his sophomore season at Southland.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_player":["119578"],"_player_evaluations_1_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"Tanner is a local QB prospect to me that I have scouted a bunch over the last year or so and seen good development over that time. I was impressed in a few reps with Tanner's touch throwing ability, especially with the deep ball. What Tanner can do with solid pass protection and a clean pocket is where you see his game really come out and shine. He shows valuable mobility and can get out of a jam with his good vision and athleticism with his track background. The biggest thing you see with every throw from Tanner is his precision. The touch ball we saw at camp really resonates with that precision skill set as his ability to lead his wide receiver to the promised land with his deep ball. What else do you get on the other side of the ball with Tanner? He is a strong safety with the stamina and speed to carry his physicality from sideline to sideline. Tanner also carries the grittiness you want out of your next-level QB.","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_player":["365345"],"_player_evaluations_2_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"Jimmy showed off some of the most superb footwork amongst the older wide receiver group at the Winona State prospect camp. His distinctive range with that quick foot speed was also another intriguing skill set from Jimmy's game. Talk about a wide receiver that can still benefit with also no space between him and the cornerback, as his first clip of tape shows off his vertical on a well-covered ball, but he uses that upside to pull it up in. You better make sure as a defensive back, and you need to cover Jimmy in zone coverage that you use your crossover speed and get out of your stance quickly because otherwise, this young man will get his separation quickly with his long-lasting burst on his route running. He is highly influential over the middle of the field, and it has been a while since I have scouted a WR prospect with that jacked-up willingness like Jimmy and be such an asset over the middle in the Midwest. If you thought there weren't more skillsets on Jimmy on tape that I loved, you would be mistaken as I also love this young man's hand placement and drive of his feet in run protection schemes, as he indeed blocks bigger than his measurables will show you (6'1 185). Jimmy is more under the radar than he should be in my eyes, with just one D2 offer on his recruiting trail.","_player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_3_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_3_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_3_player_details_player_name":"Keegan DeYoung","_player_evaluations_3_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_3_player_details_graduating_class":"2024","_player_evaluations_3_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_3_player_details_height":"5'10u0022","_player_evaluations_3_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_3_player_details_position":"2408","_player_evaluations_3_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_3_player_details_school":"Tea Area (SD)","_player_evaluations_3_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_3_player_details_club_team":"","_player_evaluations_3_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_3_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_3_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"I will tell you about Keegan, the growth of his footwork from when I watched him down in Iowa at our Prep Redzone Showcase this spring to now, the fluidity in his lower body has really come out much stronger especially coming out of his stance. The explosion he showed off in the triple jump, and his growing balance looked excellent for the incoming junior at Tea Area (SD). When you watch his sophomore tape, some things will change in 2022. His twitch out of his stance from side to side is going to be significantly faster when we run the tape after the season, as he's really developed that asset of his game. You will see improved physicality in his runs, as the way Keegan was able to take first contact in Indy drills, just show how much he's grown since Spring. At 5'10 185 pounds, Keegan has sizeable strength as a blocker too, as he runs downhill like a freight train off the snap and places his hands in a prime striking area to get bigger defenders on their rear ends. Excited to see Keegan's increased reps with a loaded backfield for the Tea area in the next three classes in Chase Van Tol, Keegan, and Riley Svanda in 2025.","_player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_4_player":["156641"],"_player_evaluations_4_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_4_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_4_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"Wyatt was a first-look Iowa prospect for me and one of the more intriguing linebackers I watched at the Winona State prospect camp. What stood out? Wyatt stood out because of the physical hands he showed off in the Indy drills I caught from camp. It wasn't just the speed of his hands either, it was the instinctive way he used his hands in drills to his advantage. First three-four plays of his sophomore tape, he shows off that physicality from camp by knocking ball carriers into the next county. He shows also shows instinctive footwork with his hip turned to go right to the ball, as his motor and speed turn on quickly to get into the backfield. Wyatt is also a banger on special teams, as he shows that same competitive motor on that level of the field too. At 6'1 205 pounds, and the gates opening September 1st for 2024s, I wouldn't be surprised to see some FCS level schools get acquainted with this young man in the early recruiting process.","_player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":5,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview"} /-->
