Expert Analysis
Dame Lester | Prep Redzone Scout
Big arm, big production D1-level talent. 204/324 (63%) for 3,842 yards and 42 TDs through the air; added 431 rush yards and 8 TDs on 103 carries for a total of 4,273 yards. That’s program-changing efficiency and volume. Strong pocket presence and the ability to push the ball vertically. Projection: Solid Group of 5 starter with Power 4 developmental traits. Needs to clean up some decision-making on the move, but the arm talent and production are already college-ready. D1 programs should have him on the radar.

Gonzalez completed 23 of 31 passes for 287 yards with five touchdowns in South Gate’s 46-14 win over Santa Fe.
He throws really well on the run and even made two great throws while rolling to his left. You can see him going through his progressions and showing patience in the pocket and he’s good at buying time with his legs for his receivers to get open.
