Boise State Commit Could Star on Either Side of the Ball

2025 ATH Ja'Bree Bickham (6'3, 180) - Lewisville: McKinney's passing game struggled to find a rhythm, but Bickham kept the Lions in contention with stellar defensive play in the secondary, including a jump-ball interception that sparked momentum before halftime. Rated as a three-star athlete, Bickham is versatile enough to play safety or receiver in college, though his height and ball skills might be better suited for offense. Boise State has landed an early commit here, but don’t be surprised if other schools make a push to flip him in the coming weeks—Texas State being the latest to extend an offer. - Greg Powers

Prosper Rock Hill's Big-Time Sleeper

2025 S Jayden Bradley (6'2, 190) - Prosper Rock Hill: Bradley is a true alpha. In a big night for the Blue Hawks, he roamed all over the defense and made the game’s defining play—a 40-yard pick-six in the first quarter that set the tone for a defensive battle. Then, with the game on the line in the fourth, Bradley sealed the win with a second interception in the end zone, securing Rock Hill’s first playoff berth in its five-year history. He’s earned double-digit offers so far, with the most recent ones from Marshall, Jackson State and Missouri State. - Greg Powers

Coppell WR Duo Shines

2025 WR Tucker Cusano (6’3, 200) - Coppell: A big-bodied wide receiver with massive catch radius and polished route running, Cusano scored two first quarter touchdowns in Coppell’s win over Flower Mound Marcus, capping an undefeated season. Cusano is a Rice commit who cited a strong relationship with wide receivers coach Bobby Kennedy, but says Mike Bloomgren’s firing leaves him undecided. He is taking the recruitment process day by day. - Carter Yates

2025 WR Harry Hassmann (6’1, 185) - Coppell: Hassmann is a burner (4.39-laser speed) who takes the top off the defense either by catching a long ball behind them or taking an underneath pass past them. He finished the regular season with over 1,000 yards and a whopping 31 yards per catch. He says UAB, James Madison and Ball State as his top schools that have offered, but will take an unofficial visit to Arizona State. - Carter Yates

QB on the Rise in Wichita Falls

2026 QB Joe Castles (6'6, 185) - Wichita Falls Memorial: The 6'6 junior shows great touch on the deep ball and has the ability to put throws into tight windows. Castles's frame is still thin, and he'll need to find a way to add more muscle this off-season, but the intangibles and arm strength make him an intriguing sleeper prospect in the 2026 cycle. - Matt Stepp
