is at the top of the list when it comes to the quarterback position. Warren is once again in the top spot for the quarterbacks in our second to last ranking update and he shows no signs of giving up the crown. Warren has been lights out this season for Del City and he made plenty of headlines this offseason when he moved from Bishop McGuinness to Del City. With the Eagles, he’s leading a high-scoring offense that is full of playmakers. Because he has some absolute playmakers at the wide receiver position, Warren has put up some monster numbers this fall. The thing that impresses us the most about his abilities this season is his efficiency. Warren is completing well over 70 percent of his passes.

In Class 5A, the state is still talking about the Carl Albert-Guthrie showdown from last week. But meanwhile, #2 Del City continues to win games and remain perfect on the season. This week, they hit the road again to face #7 Coweta for the district championship. The Eagles have been led all season by a dynamic offense that has multiple players that can beat opponents on any given night. Senior quarterback

has been flawless this season and continues to show, week after week, why he’s arguably the best pure quarterback prospect in the state’s 2024 class. Warren has taken his efficiency to new heights this season, completing over 75 percent of his passes and he’s simply making it look easy at times this season. But the game this week against Coweta will provide a challenge to Warren and the Eagles. Coweta has won six straight games after dropping their first two contests to defending state champions.

has been the state’s top quarterback prospect in the 2024 class for a while now. And so far after one month of football, we haven’t seen anything to suggest he’s losing that title anytime soon. There’s no doubt that Warren benefits from having some serious talent around him that will end up playing not only D1 football but at the power five level. But Warren himself is an outstanding talent and is at that level. He had a shaky start to the season against Choctaw but he has bounced back in a big way in their last three games. Warren has been flawless, putting up big numbers and Friday’s game will be just another test.

at the quarterback position. Warren has been the top-rated quarterback prospect in the state’s 2024 class since the end of his sophomore season. Warren can sling the ball all over the field and he continues to get better and better every time we see him. We’re looking forward to seeing what he can do in this Del City offense with some legitimate D1 prospects around him. There’s no doubt that Warren is going to have some weapons at his disposal so we’re very curious to see what kind of production he has this fall.

State

is now at Del City and ready to lead the Eagles to those new heights that we mentioned earlier in the preview. Warren is widely considered the top quarterback prospect in the state’s 2024 class and it’s really easy to see why. He’s got good size and can throw the ball all over the field. He had a really strong junior season and is coming into this fall with plenty of momentum. Not only has his recruitment picked up as plenty of D1 programs are looking at him, but he’s going to be QB1 for a Del City offense that has quite a bit of talent around him. Warren is going to have quite a few weapons to get the ball to this fall and he should lead one of the higher scoring offenses in Class 5A.

holds on to the top spot in our 2024 quarterback rankings as he’s been the clear cut choice for that top position for what feels like two years now. After two very successful seasons at Bishop McGuinness, Warren moved over to Del City this offseason and he’s one part of a three-headed monster on the Del City offense that could be absolutely potent this season. Warren is a very underrated athlete as well as he’s mostly known for throwing the ball all over the field. He does have the athleticism to make things happen with his legs when the play breaks down and it’s the only option. But with some of the weapons and overall speed he’s going to have around him, this could be a very big season for Warren and the Eagles in Class 5A. We anticipate that his numbers and overall production will go up and he’s seen his recruitment continue to get momentum this offseason as the state’s top ’24 QB.

. The McGuinness QB is once again holding on to the top spot at the position. And based on what we saw from Warren in 2022, there’s a very good chance that he goes wire to wire as the state’s top quarterback prospect for the 2024 class. Warren appears to have just about every tool in the book as a quarterback. We checked out Warren and McGuinness a few times throughout the 2022 season and Warren did play very well within the offense. We’re going to keep a close eye on Warren as we head into the 2023 season. Bishop McGuinness will be replacing star running back

and Warren will have more of a role as a playmaker with the McGuinness offense. Warren’s ability to make just about every throw in the books is a big reason why he’s already being recruited.
