Read EvaluationMichael Huntley | Prep Redzone Scout
Fountain Valley was a much better team last year than it was in 2021 and a large reason for that was the performance of Banua.
On film, he has really good timing with his receivers and makes the correct decision with the ball more often than not. He’s a good enough athlete to extend plays with his legs and find his third or fourth option.
I’m banking on him and the team improving after a full offseason with this coaching staff and he improved between the two Prep Redzone Showcases in January and April.
Don’t be surprised if Fountain Valley’s staff has more faith in him this year and asks him to do more in the offense.

Banua looked better on Sunday than he did at the Stock Up Showcase in January.
His release is quick and he can throw from different arm angles when needed. There were moments where he was throwing some of the most accurate balls at the camp.
Banua’s timing was good with many of the receivers who he had never thrown with prior to Sunday.

Fountain Valley improved greatly when they handed Banua the reins at quarterback. His release is smooth, he has nice touch on the deep balls and is accurate on the intermediate throws.
He isn’t a speed demon but he’s a sneaky good athlete who can extend plays with his legs. His field vision is what stands out on film because he often hits his second and third options on passing plays.
