Huynh had a breakout sophomore season leading the 2027 class in receiving with 65 receptions, 1,094 yards, and 11 touchdowns. Explosive lining up in a variety of positions while creating easy and reliable separation with high level route running. Attacks leverage and slips by coverage with good timing and variation of moves at the top of his route. Great ability to establish himself as a target and create a throwing lane at all three levels. His wide route tree and ability to execute different routes/concepts is one of his standout qualities. Excellent hand eye coordination and body control to make tough contested catches downfield and across the middle. Debuts in the rankings as the #9 overall prospect and the fourth ranked receiver in the 2027 class. First offered by Colorado State in October but will shoot up recruiting boards as he showcases his skillset.

Read EvaluationNick Rock | Prep Redzone Scout
Huynh sprung onto the scene and played a major role on the 2024 Liberty open division state champion squad by racking up over 1,000 yards on 64 receptions with 11 TD’s to go with it. Huynh showed impressive ball skills, frequently showing the ability to leap up, high point and win contested catches. Good speed overall but where he separates himself is that explosive power step at the top of his route to really burst free. From an IQ perspective, Huynh did a great job recognizing the soft sports in zone coverage, finding and sitting in open windows during scramble, and gets his head around quick when facing man- knowing when to expect the ball.

is having an incredible start to his sophomore season for defending Open champions, Liberty. He already has three games with more than 100 receiving yards; including a 168-yard, three-touchdown showing against Mountain View. Huynh has an excellent release off the line of scrimmage when facing press coverage, ensuring that the timing of the offense isn’t thrown off. His burst in routes makes it nearly impossible for defenders to keep up with him when he makes a cut. Huynh is a player coaches should try to get in on now, before it’s too late. At this pace, he’ll be one of the top recruits in the state in no time.
