Yep, it’s that time! The 2023 top 100 rankings came out and a few of our guys have made the cut.

#5 QB Arch Manning 6’3” 195lbs
#9 DE Brenan Vernon 6’5” 245lbs
#16 TE/DE Brett Norfleet 6’7”220lbs
#27 QB Tad Hudson 6’3” 195lbs
#29 OT Alex Birchmeier 6’5” 265lbs
#42 OT Nolan McConnell 6’6” 260lbs
#61 LB Drayk Bowen 6’2” 192lbs
#63 OT Monroe Freeling 6’6” 260lbs
#64 TE Pearce Spurlin 6’6” 210lbs
#75 ATH (RB/S) Trevor Carter 6’1” 190lbs
#81 QB Dylan Lonergan 6’1” 195lbs
#100 TE Mac Markway 6’4” 250lbs

Not great but not terrible either, a lot of these guys already have fantastic size going into their sophomore years.

Thanks for the list. I know this sounds cynical but it is the same list every stinking year.

A scarcely scattered list made up of a few White quarterbacks, offensive linemen and tight ends with a couple of defensive players sprinkled in. And the athlete designation by Trevor Carter's name likely indicates a move to linebacker.

Once again zero White wide receivers, running backs and defensive backs.

The eternal hell known as caste continues uninterrupted year after year.

The silver lining, if there is one, is that it is early in the game. I would hope to see White skill players emerge as this class of 2023 starts to physically mature in the next year or so.

Looks like Ohio State is favorite to land Vernon. Continuing their trend of stud White DL.

Legit kids in other B10 schools like Michigan , MSU Spartans, PSU, Wisconsin, THEY AT BEST A 3rd-rounder. Life finds a way.
Winovich got picked on 3rd round but Gary was the 12nd pick? What a joke by these experts.

Nice find! That kid is a monster, I’ll definitely be following his career from here on out.

Finally a 2023 white WR sighting, Kevin Kasper’s son Kyler is the #13 ranked WR as of right now and #73 overall player. Tall and lanky 6’5” 185lbs, has an offer from Kevin’s alma mater Iowa in addition to Arizona, Arizona State, Cal, Iowa State, Michigan State, Nebraska, Utah, and Vanderbilt.

Georgia offered to Sammy Brown (2024 class), also Vols and NC.
He's local kid and best freshman RB in the state.

2023 Qb class looks like a bunch of half breeds and blacks.

whites seem to be magically losing the ability to play QB

6'1 220 Sophomore RB with 4.52 40! Colleges looking at him as an inside LB BECAUSE OF HIS HEIGHT . o_O:rolleyes:

Zander Rockford is a name to remember. I wonder if any school will have the cajones to recruit him as a RB. Hoping he puts up monster numbers as a JR.

As the great @Extra Point would say. LURKERS TAKE NOTE!

Wow, thanks. I hope that many lurkers will take note of what Bucky and the rest of us at Caste Football have to say.

DB Jack Luttrell is Tennessee’s first commitment for 2023. I wouldn’t be surprised to see him end up at WR.

Quick update on Rockow! Led his D6 team over a more "affletic" D1 school! Here's a brief article with 3 minute highlight reel attached. Worth a view, I'd like to hear what some of our RB gurus have to say.

I see promise. I always ant these type of kids to stay at RB.
Lurkers will whine about him getting caught at the five yard line.
The best backs in history have been caught from behind.
6’1” isn’t too tall. Height is what hurts the younger McCaffrey brothers.
Seeing Luke play last year, I was mentioning he’d probably do better jacking himself up to about 225-230....Become a RB!

Two Zanders to root for this year.

I’m watching this high school game delayed.....Taped it.
The kid I mentioned, Owen Allen, his stats just came up onto the screen....

Freshman 1266 rushing yards, 5.9 ypc, 23 tds
Sophomore, 2063 rushing yards, 7 ypc, 28 tds

Dude better get offers to play running back.,

We need to hunt down these college recruiters and get to the bottom of their anti white ways.
It’s real lurkers.....
The Longhorns should be recruiting 20 or so kids form this game.
Highland Park vs Southlake Carroll
Let’s all keep an eye on these teams and watch these two powers kick ass all year

@Rocky B watching the replay of this game right now. Probably one of the most pleasing games I've watched in some time! Samson flashed, as did Allen! Anderson the new QB was excellent as well. WR James Lehman had a beautiful one handed TD catch!

I was watching some of Allen's highlights and noticed that the mostly white Southlake Carroll beat the all black Duncanville team, yet I'm just guessing here, but the Longhorns are probably 80% black?
Reminded me of Will Shipley's all white HS team winning three state HS championships.

I wish one of us could run a damn team....I’ve said this before, but this black obsession is getting out of hand....Your average American is afraid of blacks and won’t stand up, let alone just be fair about athletics.....Too many crappy, white hating coaches...along with clueless fans.
