We already know that every year we will have top-flight football prospects, and as the underclassmen are starting to get recognition from college coaches nationally, you will see some impressive performers.
With the pandemic taking center stage, there was no spring or summer for these underclassmen to jump onto the radar screen, so the only thing that many colleges and football analysts to go off of was last season – when these young men were sophomores and a lot less mature – mentally and physically than they are now.
As we continue to look at the Top 100 Class of 2022 prospects, today we take our first look at the running backs.
Here are five to keep an eye on:
Kaytron Allen Kaytron Allen 5'11" | 205 lbs | RB Bradenton IMG Academy | 2022 State FL , 6-1, 195, Bradenton IMG Academy. Has already made his debut in 2020 – and has been impressive. This is a quick and powerful runner who played a year ago and was one of those elite backs that everyone wanted to see. With two full seasons to play, he will mature and get better.

Jamarrien Burt Jamarrien Burt 6'0" | 170 lbs | RB Ocala Forest | 2022 State FL , 6-1, 175, Ocala Forest. Talk about a back with size and quickness, here is a tremendous athlete who has it all. Speed, athletic ability and plenty of instincts. Has a chance – over the next two seasons – to develop into one of the top runners nationally.

Anthony Hankerson Anthony Hankerson 5'8" | 190 lbs | RB Fort Lauderdae St. Thomas Aquinas | 2022 State FL , 5-8, 190. Fort Lauderdale St. Thomas Aquinas. For those who didn’t even include this impressive talent in their Top 100 players in the state of Florida – SHAME ON YOU. This is a football talent that many have said could be one of the best running backs to ever wear a Raider uniform when all is said and done. A strong, quick and powerful runner who gets it done against everyone – at every level. Just in case you didn’t think he was a national running back prospects, the coaches at the school believe he could be a 5-star linebacker prospect as well. Before making a blind assessment on this impressive football player, please watch him play!

Maurice Jones Maurice Jones 5'9" | 180 lbs | RB Miami Killian | 2022 FL , 5-9, 180, Miami Killian. Another impressive football talent that had an amazing sophomore season at Coral Gables High – before moving over the play for the Cougars this year. Showed last season that he is not just a force as a running back, but this is someone who is an amazing kick returner as well. Will emerge as a national back after this season gets started in Miami-Dade County.
