6) Joe Kolbeck Joe Kolbeck 6'0" | 185 lbs | QB Brandon Valley | 2021 State , QB, Brandon Valley (2021)
Kohlbeck is very under the radar, especially on the football front. A promising basketball player, Kohlbeck has average arm strength on the deep ball but has good zip inside from 20 yards or less. Our next QB and Kohlbeck were a close match, but I think Teigen is a more college-ready QB prospect out of the Sioux Falls Area.
5) Jack Teigen Jack Teigen 6'0" | 185 lbs | QB Harrisburg | 2021 State , QB, Harrisburg (2021)
The Tigers probably have the best QB tandem in all of the Dakotas. Teigen would be the starter just about anywhere but Harrisburg. I love how fast Teigen gets the ball out of his hands and has a decisive touch on the football. Although he won’t be the Tigers starter this year, I would definitely give this kid a look at the Division II or III levels as he has some promise. Development wise can work getting more arch on the football as some of his balls I have seen could get picked off by a taller defensive back.
4) Tommy Thompson Tommy Thompson 6'0" | 195 lbs | QB Sioux Falls Lincoln | 2021 State , Sioux Falls Lincoln (2021)
The Augustana commit is a poised yet raw prospect that I think will develop into a great QB for the Vikings. Reliable on the run option with quality speed to get out of the pocket and make a move. Thompson needs to develop more balance on his throws, even though when you watch the tape, he makes some of them look easy. If he can create that, should be another strong QB in the Northern Sun.
3) Max Thomson Max Thomson 6'3" | 215 lbs | QB SF Washington | 2022 State , Sioux Falls Washington (2022)
How I didn’t have Thomson on my radar sooner is beyond me. Thomson has such a nice zip on the football and can make just about any throw you want. He is also very durable inside the pocket and can get loose and make a play with his legs. Perfect QB frame at 6’2 205. With weapons like Lindenwood (MO) TE commit Tyus Hanson Tyus Hanson 6'4" | 225 lbs | TE SF Washington | 2021 State and another 2022 WR prospect in Josh Piper Josh Piper 6'0" | 190 lbs | WR SF Washington | 2022 State to throw to, Thomson claims the 3rd spot in our Sioux Falls QB1 rankings.
2) Taylen Ashley Taylen Ashley 6'0" | 175 lbs | QB Sioux Falls Jefferson | 2023 State , Sioux Falls Roosevelt (2023)
Ashley has been a big surprise this season for Roosevelt. As just a sophomore, he already has excellent instincts and ball placement for the undefeated RoughRiders. A dual-threat prospect that, in my opinion, is the best QB coming out of South Dakota in the 2023 Class. His mobility reminds him of a lot of Vince Young in his Longhorn days!
1) Jacob Knuth Jacob Knuth 6'4" | 205 lbs | QB Harrisburg | 2022 State , Harrisburg (2022)
Knuth is a big reason why so many people are so high on Harrisburg making a big state tournament run. Massive QB frame at 6’4 and has tough mobility and strength when he leaves the pocket. He shows such strength on his runs and knows precisely what he is going to do with the football. His throwing strength and accuracy This is looking to be one of the top QB prospects the state of South Dakota has seen in a very long time coming out of the 2022 class. Lots of Division I on his resume already with a Northern Sun offer coming in the last few weeks from Northern State.
