Expert Analysis
Zack Reyes | Prep Redzone Scout
Cooper added offers from Wyoming and Georgia St. in March. The 6’/175 athlete put together another productive season on both sides of the ball with over 1,000 total yards and 15 TDs on offense and 70 tackles on defense. He’s a versatile playmaker that possesses high-upside traits that project him as a future safety at the next level. He’s a rangy and highly physical tackler that can close on the ball from any alignment and has the speed to play sideline to sideline from a middle-field safety role. Cooper has official visits lined up with UNLV and San Diego St. in the coming months.

Cooper picked up his first P-4 offer from Pitt this month. The 6’/175 safety out of San Diego HS put his name on the radar with his breakout freshman season with St. Augustine in 2023 totaling 90 tackles and an INT. He’s a skilled athlete on both sides of the ball that showed his offensive playmaking ability in his first season with the Cavers last fall and is currently one of the most underrated DB talents in the county. Cooper holds other offers from San Diego St., Colorado St., and Delaware St.

Cooper put together another productive season after transferring from St. Augustine to San Diego prior to his sophomore season. Posted 90+ total tackles for the second straight season with 98 in 2024. Also recorded 800+ all-purpose yards and 9 total TDs on offense. Versatile, natural athlete that brings great speed, fluidity, and pure playmaking ability to the table. He’s a rangy defender and a threat to take it the distance anytime he touches the ball. Cooper- who picked up his first offer from Colorado St. last offseason- is one of the best and most versatile athletes in San Diego’s 2027 class.
AG2G, for the wonderful season I had.
