Calls Jamarion Morrow a very versatile player that has played just about everywhere, and he's still playing for a state title.
Kelshaun Johnson is an "elite" wide receiver who runs the 100 meters and plays basketball. He "brings elite speed and elite twitch."

Josh Moses was "the easiest kid I recruited", that he was committed and stayed committed. Never wavered.

Tyler Thomas is a 6-4, 330-pound interior lineman who is a people mover.

Landon Rink is an "explosive and powerful kid".
DJ Sanders is "an extremely explosive athlete", was sought-after even after he committed and always felt like he was an Aggie.
Chace Sims is a guy they always felt like was an elite player. "We were very excited when we got him...we think he's a phenomenal player."
Noah Mikhail is a "two-way standout...a really athletic linebacker who can go sideline-to-sideline."
Kelvion Riggins was the first commit to Elko. "He has already become a great Aggie...he has tremendous twitch, speed and athleticism."

Adonyss Currie "Length and speed in the secondary."
Rashad Johnson has "The prototypical safety body." Likes that he's a two-way player, because that helps with your ball skills.
Deyjhon Pettaway has the most Aggie ties of anyone (Daymion Sanford's his brother, David Hicks, DJ's dad, is his coach), "Probably has the most versatility" and they project him at nickel (told you.)
Cobey Sellers is another "multi-sport, multi-position player...we think he'll be an elite corner for us."
