The You Are Athlete Regional Exposure Camp Series made a stop in Birmingham, AL on Feb 22nd. Some of the top prospects from Alabama, Mississippi, Tennesse, and Arkansas were in attendance.
Below are the prospects that earned an invitation to the You Are Athlete All American Showcase this upcoming May in Houston, TX.
OL
2027, Reed Paolucci - MVP
Paolucci is a big physical prospect with good feet, who will move you out the way if needed. The soon to be, junior, may have his best football days ahead of him allowing him to build on his game that shows great upside. Liberty was the first to offer, but others should be on the way.
2026, Tyler Smith
Smith held his own at the center position. He has a solid base and is hard to move when he sticks his feet in the ground. Right now he may earn a late FCS opportunity but most certainly should have some D2 offers when all said and done.
2026, Quan Bland
Bland is a sleeper in the making. He doesn't get much attention being from Mississippi but more than held his own at the guard position against a group of talented defenders driving some into the ground at points. Bland may not see his recruitment taking off quite yet but opportunities should be on their way at some point.
2026, ZaColby Malone
Malone has a D1 frame right now and has the physicality to match. The junior prospect is stout, standing around 6'4, 270lbs he's a tough prospect to deal with. Middle Tennessee State just offered showing that his stock could be on the rise.
Jake Lewis
Lewis had an impressive showing taking on anyone who stepped in front of him. He has a big frame that's hard to get in front of especially he sets his feet and locks in his base.
WR
2026, Gavin Jordan - MVP
Jordan is a shifty wideout who was a reliable target all day long. He showed soft hands and an ability to get open in both 1 vs 1 and 7 v 7.
2027, Damarion Smith
Scott made a handful of plays at the wideout position, he's shifty and raw but definitely holds some upside to his game.
2028, Sean-Christian Sigler
Sigler is a long, lengthy prospect with a wide catch radius and toughness to make contested catches. He's young but as he continues to fill out his frame, he's certainly set to make a name for himself soon.
2026, Dominic white
White is a shifty wideout with reliable hands, who makes decisive cuts to create space from defenders. White currently holds multipe D1 offers and with a strong summer could be in store for a few more to close out his senior campaign strong.
LB
2027, Gavin Aldmon - MVP
Aldmon is a prospect on the rise at the linebacker position. He plays with good leverage, shows good feet when attacking the ball and doesn't get lost in coverage. Things are looking up for the young prospect out of Texas, who showed up several talented LB's from out of state.
2026, Monroe Partin
Partin is a very coachable player, who's a quick learner and leads by example. The '26 prospect attacks the football and gets downhill in a hurry when he finds the ball. Partin earned two D1 offers immediately following camp.
2028, Kaiden Buchanan
Buchanan is going to end up being one of the top prospects in the Sip for the 2028 class. He moves well, has the frame (already) of a D1 prospect and has great instincts. After 100+ tackles, 11 sacks both Arkansas St and Akron jumped on board with offers.
2026, Reuben Bilbrew
Bilbrew fits the mold of a D1 tweener just given the opportunity, where he camps will matter but he should generate some buzz by the end of the year at the least. FCS offers should be in the cards later in the process.
2026, Gredonivan Smith
A lengthy defender Smith more than held his own at the linebacker position, he got downhill in a hurry and uses his length to keep the opposition at bay. Smith should at the very least garner D2 exposure.
2027, Kamaron Pritchard
Continuing the domination by the Mississippi crew Pritchard is a young guy that should garner more attention as time goes on. It's still early for the '27 prospect but he already shows flashes of a D1 player in the making.
DB
2026, Kejiaun Johnson - MVP
Johnson is a lengthy wideout with an impressive frame giving him the ability to play multiple positions in the secondary. Johnson is physical and plays with poise, allowing Ole Miss and several other programs to have already extended the offer.
2026, Ian Coleman
Coleman plays with good footwork and is unafraid to step up against talented wideouts regardless of their size. Good showing by Coleman to play on and off coverage, there could more in store for him this fall if he continues to work.
2027, Braiden Howard
Howard plays with grit and knows how to use his hands well to disrupt receivers from getting to their spots. He plays with passion and wants to get as many reps as possible to improve his game but also show that he belongs. If he continues to develop a January/Febuary opportunity is not out of the question.
2026, George French
French is a technician by nature who plays through receivers to disrupt the ball. He has the frame of a D1 talent with his statue that helps him make plays against wideouts.
2026, Jackson Lassiter
Lassiter is a competitor at the position, which is call on for you to call yourself a D1 talent. In a grouping that was one of the more talented at camp, Lassister stood out with his consistency and attention to detail helping him land one of the top spots. He should be able to take and build on the momentum heading into the college camp season.
2028, Braylen Bedford
Bedford is as talented as they come and he shows it consistently with the confidence he displays in his coverage and technique. Lately, he's been on fire in his recruitment, holding offers from programs like Penn State, Ole Miss and Texas A&M.
RB
2027, Jacob Jefferson - MVP
Jefferson is a fairly polished back, who runs with intention. He likes to make defenders think twice before making contact but he can also contribute in the passing game if needed, solid player from Mississippi who will garner some attention soon.
2027, Elijah Tarver
Tarver is a talented back with a strong build who shows explosiveness in and out of breaks. He can carry the load as an every down back and it shows in a major way as he's preparing to pick up a number of offers.
2027, Ricky Howell
Howell is still a work in progress at the running back position but showed a shiftiness to make defenders miss. Heading into his junior season it will be big for him in terms of where he will make his move on recruiting boards.
Tyson hunter
Hunter is a big strong physical back who also has a move or two in his bag. After a solid freshman campaign, Hunter should have an opportunity to take off in the recruiting world, already holding an offer from Georgia State.
2026, Ashton Daniels
Daniels is another Mississippi back in a camp where they showed their dominance at the position. Once again, Daniels is a tough runner who runs with intention. Big senior season ahead for Daniels looking to generate collegiate interest.
DL
2026, Jackson Carlisle - MVP
Carlisle is a versatile athlete who moves well for his size, showing positional flexibility and bend. He plays with a motor and uses active hands to affect the pocket. Carlisle currently holds two D1 offers but by hitting the right camps could end up being a steal down the stretch.
2025, Jaiden Elly
Elly is an experienced prospect that relied on his years of playing at the high school level to his advantage. A year at a top JUCO would do wonders for Elly.
2027, Cameon Noel
Noel is 6-foot, 190-pounds and plays the game with a lot of aggression. He is going to be a player who receives plenty of attention from division one programs.”
2027, Elijah Brown
Brown is a big physical load. He's hard to move on the interior but at the same time has a plethora of moves in his arsenal he can turn to get upfield and disrupt the pocket. Brown already holds a number of Power 4 offers including LSU, Auburn and Georgia.
2025, Keith Richmond
Richmond has the ability to gain traction and quickly, especially heading into his junior campaign. He certainly looks the part of a D1 prospect, he just needs to show a bit more on tape and in front of coaches. That said, he should receive D1 opportunites soon.
QB
2026, Lane Clements - MVP
Clements is a two-way athlete who shows upside at the position for a 2028 prospect. He can get the ball to you with some zip and make throws at a variety of spots, as a rising 2028, it should be a big year for the camp MVP.
2027, Connor Jenne
Jenne certainly has the size and frame to get interest from coaches, he just needs to continue to put it together day by day. As a '27 prospect he will have plenty of time to continuing developing his game, that said, this year will be big for him in generating buzz.
2026, Dylan Reese
Reese is an intriguing prospect who can move the pocket and get the ball to you with some zip. He helped his HS earn a state title, holding the offense together and continuing to move the football consistently. Can be a late D1 tweener if he continues to grow and develop his game.
2026, Chase Stephens
Stephens likes to get the ball out quickly and make smart quick decisions. Stephens is very intentional about his ball placement, making sure to layer it where only his wideout can get it. Work is still to be done for Stephens but you can certainly see his game progressing given the right attention to detail.
2028, Cayden Dixon
Dixon continues to develop his game following his freshman season. Dixon is raw but you see flashes of what he can be given he continues to develop his game. Right now, he's just to continue to stay the course and he could be looking at some D1 opportunities down the stretch.
