Expert Analysis

Scott Burgess

Prep Redzone Lead Scout

Shanklin led the Flyers to a state championship game appearance this season. Strong and athletic dual threat signal caller that recently scored a Western Illinois offer. We are surprised that a QB with his athleticism and physical tools combined with production as a junior hasn’t gotten more attention from Group of 5 programs.

Prep Redzone Scout

Shanklin is an athletic 5’11, 174-pound quarterback with a strong arm and quick release. Playing in a program known for producing high-level talent, he has the tools to become the next big name out of East Saint Louis. His combination of physical tools and competitive edge makes him a player to watch closely.

Shanklin was a back up for the Flyers this year that got alot of time with blowout wins. Shanklin is a legit P4 QB with size and strength. Excellent footwork and pocket presence as a passer. Strong arm that he can deliver to all three levels. Touch on the deep ball. Takes what the defense gives him and distributes it quickly with consistent accuracy. Zip on intermediate routes. Like what he brings as a runner with his physicality. Also is a place kicker for the Flyers.
