UPDATED: 7/18/21

Colleges across the nation continue to take notice of the prep talent in Arizona each season. More than 360 players from the Class of 2021 have signed with schools to advance their football careers, and receive an education.

Times for games are given in Arizona time.

Receiving his first Division II offer on Wednesday was Kaden Hicks. The Mountain Ridge offensive guard got it from Southwest Minnesota State. Hicks is 6-4, 260 pounds, and has a 78-inch wingspan. He worked on his strength and footwork during track and field season by throwing both the shot put and discus. Hicks earned his offer following a visit to the campus in Marshall. We're just a couple weeks away from school starting (Aug. 2 at MRHS) with the season set to start a month later (Sept. 3). Southwest Minnesota State, a member of the Northern Sun Intercollegiate Conference, had its 2020 season canceled due to COVID-19. The Mustangs are set to return this fall and will open at home against MSU-Moorhead on Thursday, Sept. 2. SMSU is led by head coach Cory Sauter, who is in his 12th year. The Mustangs were 3-8 in the 2019 season.

Zach Bauer took a trip to the Chicago area to visit Lake Forest College and came away with an offer on Friday. The 6-2, 290-pound offensive guard plays at Greenway, where the Demons' offense averaged 31 points and 218 rushing yards per game last year during a 5-3 season. In June, Bauer competed in camps run by Northern Arizona, Dixie State (Utah), and Arizona Christian. An excellent student, he carries a weighted GPA of 4.3. Last year, a pair of Lake Forest players were recognized by D3football.com. Wide receiver AJ Jackson (Centennial) was named First Team All-American as a kick returner for the second straight year. Also, cornerback Kobee Marion (Corona del Sol) was a Second Team All-Region selection. The Foresters played in just three games in the spring, but won all of them. This year's slate begins on Sept. 4 on the road at Wisconsin Lutheran. Lake Forest is in the Midwest Conference (Div. III).

Another Northwest Valley player collecting a Division III offer from the Midwest was Jeremiah Gossett. The Peoria cornerback got it from St. Norbert College in Wisconsin. Gossett (5-10, 160) is versatile and also caught passes (nine last season), was a running back (14 carries), and returned kickoffs. On defense, Gossett had 46 tackles and broke up 10 passes. He is a three-sport athlete (basketball and track) and was named to the First Team All-4A West Valley region last season as a defensive back. St. Norbert has a new defensive coordinator this year as Riley Swanson was brought on last month. Swanson most recently held the same position at Finlandia (Mich.). In his playing days, Swanson won an Arena Bowl title with the Arizona Rattlers. The 2020 season was canceled for SNC and it will open at home on Sept. 4 against Loras (Iowa). The Green Knights (6-3 in 2019) play in the Northern Athletics Collegiate Conference.

Several players earned offers from Allegheny College in Pennsylvania this week. Getting them from the Gators were Deer Valley defensive back John West, Deer Valley running back Ashton Hill, Salpointe safety Cody Raetzman, Centennial wide receiver Elijah Sports-Trott, Saguaro running back Bryan Bogardus, Florence wide receiver Tommy Carberry, Trevor Browne quarterback Alex Rivera, Basha defensive end Ty Robinson, Basha safety Jordan Anderson, Campo Verde quarterback Jacob Brooks, and Canyon View offensive guard Ricky Randall. Allegheny has made some changes to its coaching staff, most notably moving co-offensive coordinator Vann Hunt to defensive coordinator. The new recruiting coordinator is Cody Crawford. Like St. Norbert, Allegheny didn't play any football games last year. The Gators are scheduled to open this season at home on Sept. 4 against Thiel (Pa.). Allegheny finished 4-6 in 2019 and plays in the North Coast Athletic Conference (Div. III). Raetzman added an offer from Minot State.

Anderson, Robinson, and Bogardus also gained offers from Ripon College in Wisconsin. Ripon plays in the Midwest Conference with Lake Forest and will host the Foresters on Oct. 16. The Red Hawks were 4-6 in 2019 and 0-3 last spring. Ripon begins this season with a home game against Augsburg (Minn.). Anderson got an offer from Benedictine University in Illinois as well.

Bogardus made it three offers for the week with one from the University of Rochester in New York. Rochester plays in the Liberty League (Div. III) and did not play any games last year. The Yellowjackets return this fall on Sept. 4 with a home game against Case Western Reserve (Ohio). Rochester (0-10 in 2019) will be looking to end a 17-game losing streak.

Attending a camp at Minot State in North Dakota paid dividends for Johnny Bellino as he obtained an offer from the Beavers on Saturday. The 6-foot, 170-pound ALA-Gilbert North receiver performed well, met the MSU coaching staff, which includes WR coach Francisco Llanos, and saw both the campus and the town. Bellino led the Eagles in receiving last season with 43 catches for 789 yards and eight touchdowns. ALAGN finished 8-2 and made the 3A semifinals. Minot State is getting back to competition in 2021. Like Southwest Minnesota State, the Beavers are in the NSIC and didn't play last academic year. Minot State will begin on Sept. 4 at Augustana (S. Dak.) and will then have six of its 10 remaining games at home. There are 16 teams in the NSIC and MSU will not face Southwest Minnesota State in 2021. In the 2019 season, the Beavers finished 3-8.

Also pocketing an offer from Minot State over the weekend was Aiden Simonton. It was the first offer for the 6-5, 270-pound offensive tackle at O'Connor. Last year, the Eagles finished 6-4 and made the 6A semifinals. O'Connor had a balanced offense that averaged 187 passing yards and 167 rushing. In the classroom, Simonton totes a 4.3 GPA.

Ricky Randall recently made the move from Clearwater, Fla. to Canyon View HS in Waddell. On Friday, the 6-1, 255-pound offensive guard picked up his first offer from Dickinson State. Last season, Randall helped the Cougars finish 8-4 and reach the Class 6A Region 2 semifinals. In June, he put in work with his new team at CVHS as the Jaguars competed in the Battle of the White Tanks Big Man competition at Shadow Ridge. Dickinson State, also located in North Dakota, finished with a perfect regular season in 2020 (9-0). After a five-month layoff, the Blue Hawks lost in the first round of the NAIA playoffs at Northwestern (Iowa). DSU ended up with a No. 11 ranking and won the North Star Athletic Association for the sixth straight season. The new season will begin with a big challenge as Dickinson State travels to South Dakota to face Black Hills State, a Division II school. The series has been a competitive one as it is knotted up at three apiece.

Here's the rest of the offers since Wednesday:

Desert Edge cornerback Breshaun Brown received offers from Northern State (S. Dak.) and Minot State.
Saguaro cornerback Ivan Martin received an offer from Minot State.
O'Connor safety Kolten Warner received an offer from Minot State.
Perry linebacker Josh Richardson received offers from Lewis & Clark (Ore.) and Ripon.
Perry defensive tackle Caleb Richardson received offers from Lewis & Clark and Ripon.
Notre Dame defensive tackle/offensive guard Duke Frye received an offer from Bowdoin (Maine).
Greenway linebacker Milo Apodaca received an offer from Kansas Wesleyan.

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 approach the Early Signing Period from December 15-17. Those are the first days that high school seniors can sign a letter of intent to agree to attend an institution.

Verbal commitments are shown in bold.

UPDATED: 7/15/21

With a total of 26 Division I offers, Benjamin Morrison had a lot to choose from.

In early May, he narrowed that list down to focus on 10 of them. On Thursday, he announced that Notre Dame will be his college destination. Among the finalists the Fighting Irish beat out were Washington, Alabama, and Florida State.

The 6-foot, 170-pound defensive back at Brophy had 36 tackles and blocked two field goals in his second year as a starter. He brings athleticism, speed, length, and strong cover skills.

Morrison received his offer from Notre Dame in February and visited South Bend in mid-June. He is the 19th commitment for the Irish and the fourth cornerback.

Notre Dame will play a neutral-site game against Wisconsin this year as part of its Shamrock Series. Soldier Field in Chicago will host the game on Sept. 25 and FOX will have the game at 9 a.m. It will be the first meeting between the Irish and the Badgers since 1964. Notre Dame finished 10-2 in 2020, made the College Football Playoff, and appeared in the Rose Bowl for the second time in program history. The Fighting Irish open this year on Sunday night, Sept. 5 in Tallahassee against Florida State. ABC will have the game at 4:30 p.m.
