McPherson offers Cactus linebacker Combs
UPDATED: 1/3/20
Colleges across the nation continue to take notice of the prep talent in Arizona each season. More than 360 players from the Class of 2019 signed with schools to advance their football careers, and receive an education.
Cactus quarterback Conner Cordts, a 6-2, 190-pound signal caller, celebrated his 18th birthday last Sunday with a Division II offer from the Black Hills State Yellow Jackets. He was a two-year starter for the Cobras and really enjoyed a breakthrough senior year as a dual threat. Cordts accounted for 42 TDs for CHS, which went 10-3 and advanced to the 4A semifinals. A total of 26 of those came via the pass. He had three 100-yard games rushing and ended up with 841 yards (and 16 TDs). In the classroom, Cordts has a 4.0 GPA. Earlier this month, Black Hills State announced a new head coach. Alum Joshua Breske comes back to the Yellow Jackets after spending the last three years at Lindenwood as the offensive line coach and recruiting coordinator. BHSU finished the year with a 3-8 overall record and 2-8 in the Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference.
Also collecting an offer from Black Hills State this week was Zion Williams, who got his first at the D-II level from the Yellow Jackets on Monday. Williams, who is 5-9 and 145 pounds, led Basha in receiving with 45 catches for 834 yards and eight touchdowns (nine total TDs). Williams ran track last spring and was on the 4x100 relay team that took first at both the Red Mountain Rampage and Southeast Valley Championship.
Sergio Sanchez is a 6-1, 250-pound defensive tackle at Salpointe Catholic. On Monday, he received an offer from Aurora. Starting his second year for the Lancers, Sanchez made 44 tackles and had 4.5 sacks as SCHS advanced to the semifinals of the Open Division tournament. In the first round of that Super-8, he recovered a fumble during a 48-10 victory over Pinnacle. Aurora, located near Chicago, finished with a 9-2 record and an appearance in the Division III playoffs. The Spartans won the Northern Athletics Collegiate Conference with a perfect 7-0 record in league play. In the postseason, Aurora battled valiantly against No. 8 St. John's, but fell just shy in a 51-47 shootout. The Spartans will see SJU again on the road in Minnesota to open the 2020 season on Sept. 5. On Wednesday, Sanchez added an offer from Presentation. Presentation is an NAIA school in South Dakota. The Saints finished 1-9 and play in the North Star Athletic Association.
As 2019 was coming to an end, Army reached out to Broc Lane with an offer. Lane, a 6-4, 230-pound tight end at Perry, has been getting some attention since the season ended. Already with recent Division I offers from Weber State, Air Force, and Dixie State, he had a couple Mountain West schools drop by PHS to visit earlier this month. This year, Lane had catches in seven games totaling 265 yards and five touchdowns. To help the defense, Perry's coaches moved him over to linebacker for the last five games and he compiled 42 tackles along with three sacks and a couple forced fumbles. Lane was named as the First Team Offensive Utility/Flex Player for the 6A Premier Region. Army started the year at 3-1, but injuries piled up and the Black Knights finished 5-8 after a resounding loss to Navy (31-7) in the most important game of the year. The 2020 season will begin on Sept. 4 at home in West Point against Bucknell (Pa.).
Brandon Barrios, who is a 5-10, 195-pound running back at Ironwood Ridge, was offered by Fort Lewis on Wednesday. He was a First Team All-5A Southern Region selection after rushing for 1,491 yards and 16 touchdowns. Barrios surpassed the 100-yard mark in eight of the Nighthawks' 11 games and had a high of 313 yards and three touchdowns (on 32 carries) in a win over Nogales. He is also an National Honor Society member that carries a 3.67 GPA. Fort Lewis is a RMAC member along with Black Hills State. The Skyhawks finished 3-7 this year and will head into their first full offseason with head coach Brandon Crosby. In its game against Black Hills State last September, FLC had the ball for 40 minutes, but couldn't cash in red zone opportunities in a 13-7 loss to the Yellow Jackets.
Earning his first offer on Thursday was Jaylen Johnson. The 6-2, 250-pound defensive tackle from Desert Vista got it from Southern Nazarene. Johnson accumulated 61 tackles in his first year as a starter for the Thunder along with three forced fumbles (two in one game against Basha). Johnson is a versatile player. When I saw DVHS play at Valley Vista last season, he lined up at defensive end and left tackle. Coming off a 2-9 season in 2019, Southern Nazarene hired a new head football coach last month. Dustin Hada was tabbed to lead the Crimson Storm. It was an internal hire as Hada has been the offensive coordinator and offensive line coach at SNU for the past four seasons. Southern Nazarene competes in the Great American Conference (Division II) and will look to build on some promising youth that returns next season.
McPherson College has been hard at work this offseason recruiting Arizona. The coaching staff handed out an offer on Friday to Travis Combs. The 5-10, 190-pounder is a linebacker at Cactus. Combs finished the season with an even 100 tackles in his first year as a starter for the Cobras. He also totes a 3.6 GPA in the classroom. McPherson exceeded expectations as the Bulldogs finished the season at 5-6 after being picked to finish 10th in the Kansas Collegiate Athletic Conference by the coaches. It was a two-game improvement over 2018. Sophomore running back Quashad Washington, an Empire alum, scored three touchdowns on the season, including one in each of the last two games.
Casteel turned on its passing game with a new quarterback this season. It was a deep receiving corps with four players finishing with at least 500 yards and seven touchdown catches. One of those was Grady Burns, who gained a pair of offers from Lake Forest and Presentation this week. Burns (5-9, 160) normally lined up in the slot and had a team-high 68 catches for 703 yards and 10 touchdowns. Lake Forest had a pair of Division III All-Americans this season with one of them from Arizona. Freshman A.J. Jackson was a First Team selection as a kick returner. The Centennial alum led the nation with 939 yards on kickoff and punt returns combined. The Foresters finished the season with a record of 7-3 overall, and 4-1 in Midwest Conference North Division play.
The University of Chicago holds high positions in many national rankings for its academics. Paxton Earl got an offer from the Maroons on Monday. Earl, a 5-9, 180-pound running back at Arcadia, scored 15 touchdowns over the past two seasons as the Titans went from an 0-10 record in 2017 to a pair of winning years. He was an Ed Doherty Award finalist in both his junior and senior seasons. Earl scored a total of 1420 on the SAT, which ranks in the 95th percentile. The Maroons, who also play in the Midwest Conference, posted a record of 6-3 last season. The Chicago defense ranked 38th nationally allowing 16.6 points per game. Two of the Maroons' victories this year came against Lake Forest. The second was the season finale, which was for third place in the Midwest Conference.
Here's the rest of the offers since last Sunday:
Cesar Chavez defensive end Antwaun Winfield received an offer from Culver-Stockton (Mo.).
Arizona College Prep wide receiver James Chadwick received an offer from Simpson (Iowa).
Tolleson offensive tackle Dawson Neese received offers from Concordia Univ. (Chicago) and Avila (Mo.).
Ironwood Ridge tight end Ryan Drescher received his first offer from Simpson.
Casteel linebacker Jack Littleton received offers from Occidental (Calif.) and Luther (Iowa).
Marcos de Niza wide receiver Matt Canada received an offer from Luther.
Marana kicker Ephraim Amissah received his first offer from Luther.
Marcos de Niza safety Dillan Gulley received an offer from Jamestown (N. Dak.).
Pinnacle wide receiver Cade Horton received an offer from Lawrence Tech (Mich.).
Desert Vista wide receiver Colton Grover received his first offer from Luther.
Apache Junction linebacker Michael Jada received an offer from Ripon (Wisc.).
Marana defensive tackle Tanner Wengert receied an offer from Concordia Coll. (Minn.).
Centennial tight end Kaeden Miller received an offer from Jamestown.
Queen Creek offensive guard Gus Campbell received an offer from Simpson.
This list shows four-year college offers received by seniors throughout the state. It's not limited to just 6A and 5A. It will be constantly updated as we continue to National Signing Day on Feb. 5. That is the start of the next time period where letters of intent can be signed.
Verbal commitments are shown in bold.

4-star Higley defensive end Harris commits to Colorado
UPDATED: 1/2/20
Fans of the Colorado Buffaloes tuned into the Under Armour All-American Game Thursday night to get a look at one of their new recruits from the state of Arizona. Midway through the event, they had another one to keep tabs on as Jason Harris pulled a CU cap out of a bag and put it on to announce his commitment.
Harris, a 6-7, 230-pound defensive end at Higley, took his official visit to Boulder in November when the Buffs defeated Stanford in their Homecoming game. He also took officials to Arizona, Texas A&M, Indiana, and UCLA.
The family has ties to Arizona as his older brother, Jalen, starts at linebacker for the Wildcats. In addition, his father, Sean, was a linebacker at UA before playing seven seasons in the NFL and his mother, ChaRon, played basketball for the 'Cats.
Harris began his varsity career playing as a freshman at Desert Ridge. He transferred to Higley prior to his sophomore year and had his most productive season as a senior, leading the state in sacks with 24. He is a dual-sport athlete that also played basketball his first three seasons before deciding to focus on football this year. On the court, Harris averaged 20 points as a junior.
He signed with CU quietly during the December signing period, but waited until the all-star event in Orlando to formally announce it. He joins Hamilton wide receiver Brenden Rice (who also played in the All-American game) as Colorado signees.
In Colorado history, the only taller player the team has had was defensive tackle Curt Koch (6-8), who played in the 1980s. His signing increases the Buffs recruiting class to 21 players (17 high school). CU finished 5-7 last season, coming up short in the finale against Utah in its quest for a bowl bid. It was the third straight year the Buffaloes went 5-7.
