This summer, many of the PrepRedzone top prospects are already reaping the rewards and earning early offers at some big time universities. Let’s check out some guys who have recently blown up in the recruiting world.
Christopher Vizzina Christopher Vizzina 6'4" | 200 lbs | QB Briarwood Christian | 2023 State AL | QB | Briarwood Christian
Our top ranked QB of the class of 2023 has seen a ton of traction come his way this summer. The prototypical field general has made his rounds throughout the camp circuit, and coaches are offering every single day! Vizzina has added offers from Michigan State, Mississippi State, Duke, and Louisville among others. This is the type of passer that coaches love. He is capable of standing tall in the pocket to deliver strikes downfield, but also throws with great accuracy and anticipation. Vizzina has a huge arm and can make any throw that could ever be asked of him. He plays with great confidence and understands how to go through his progressions at a young age. Sky is the limit here.
Patrick Screws Patrick Screws 6'6" | 310 lbs | OL Eufaula | 2023 State AL | OL | Eufaula
Screws entered the summer as a bit of an unknown commodity. Since then, coaches are starting to get a real good look at the massive OL prospect. Screws stands at 6’6″ 330 and looks to be every bit of it. The left tackle shows great lower body flexibility and can easily get in and out of his stance. It’s always crazy to see big men who can run stride for stride with their receivers, but Screws does exactly that. He plays well in space and is dominant in the screen game. When he gets hands on a defender, it is game over. This kid is incredibly strong and is continuing to work in the weight room. The Georgia Bulldogs are the most recent offer for him, and he plans to visit Alabama this coming weekend. Great offensive line prospect.
Hunter Osborne Hunter Osborne 6'4" | 250 lbs | DL Hewitt-Trussville | 2023 State AL | DL | Hewitt-Trussville
Hunter Osborne Hunter Osborne 6'4" | 250 lbs | DL Hewitt-Trussville | 2023 State AL is another guy who has frequented camps in the southeast this summer. He has attended camps at schools like Auburn and Florida State, and has secured offers from Indiana and Colorado so far. Osborne is a quick twitched big man with a great first step and the ability to get off blocks. He splits double teams well and is frequently in the opposing teams’ backfield. His athleticism pops on tape and has been on full display in combine drills. As far as his future is concerned, Osborne has the frame to continue playing defensive end, or add some weight and be a dominant defensive tackle for a team. Really excited to see how he plays this upcoming season.
Dallas Young Dallas Young 6'0" | 180 lbs | DB Gardendale | 2023 State AL | DB | Gardendale
One of the quickest defensive back risers in the south east, Dallas Young Dallas Young 6'0" | 180 lbs | DB Gardendale | 2023 State AL has been a hot commodity recently. He attended the Crimson Tide’s camp earlier this month, but has added offers from Ole Miss, Florida State, Georgia Tech, and Georgia among others. The Gardendale product plays a physical brand of football that many elite defensive backs play. Young jams well at the line of scrimmage and quickly reroutes receivers off their path. He is a twitched up player who changes direction well and has fluid hips in the open field. Young loves contact and will step up and deliver a blow to any ball carrier who comes to his side of the field. Love this guy’s tape and looked really good in the spring game against Hoover.
Keep an eye out for more 2023 prospects gaining some serious traction soon. This is only the beginning for a lot of guys!
