After watching numerous player’s films these are some of the class of 2019 players to watch out for. While I still have a lot of prospects to evaluate, I have already seen some quality prospects that could make an impact at the D1 level. As a result of this, I will be adding more names to the watch list.
Please note: these are NOT rankings, but a watch list of players to keep an eye on this season. There is no specific way to do this as some of these players have not played on varsity yet. Regardless, I still believe these players have what it takes to play at the next level.
