From the Trail | Austin Area Standouts

I have made a handful of stops to Austin area schools over the last week – Pflugerville Weiss, Lake Travis, Vandegrift.

While most of these trips conclude with the big-time Texas prospect receiving all of the love and shine, I wanted to drop a little scouting report for prospects in the area that could eventually end up on P5 radars.

Pflugerville Weiss

2027 WR Tre Moore (6-foot-3, 180 pounds) – Coaches at Weiss raved about his potential. Big-body wide receiver with fluidity and soft hands. Programs are already biting here and it is only a matter of time before he gets the 'National Prospect' title to his name. Chris Jackson stopped by this winter.

Offers: Oregon, Houston, SMU, Texas State, UTSA, UTEP, Tulsa

2025 CB Jason Stokes (6-foot-2, 185 pounds) – I am a sucker for lengthy cornerbacks and Stokes fits the bill. Was previously a receiver who just recently flipped to DB. Plenty of room to develop, but the athleticism is there.

2026 DB Jorian Guinn (5-foot-11, 180 pounds) – In a secondary where Texas Tech signee Peyton Morgan received most of the shine, Guinn deserves his own headlines. Guinn was the 12-6A Defensive Newcomer of the Year and despite being a tad undersized, can absolutely ball. 11 PBU, 2 INT, 4 FF, 4 FR. Playmaker.

Lake Travis

2025 QB Chaston Ditta (6-foot-1, 190 pounds) – Really impressive athlete and dominated workouts that I witnessed. Incredibly competitor and can sling the rock as well. First play of his Hudl reminds me of a former Lake Travis QB who did rather well north of the Red River.

2026 EDGE Carter Buck (6-foot-5, 220 pounds) – Lengthy edge rusher that is expected to be a big piece of LT's defense in 2024. Buck is a two-sport athlete who was at baseball when I was on campus. Was the 26-6A Defensive Newcomer of the Year in 2023.

2026 EDGE Ben Duncum (6-foot-6, 240 pounds) – Can't teach being 6-foot-6 and I was impressed with the athleticism during my time on campus for the workout. Duncum, and Buck, will need to get more physical, but luckily there are two more years of development here for that to take place. Plenty of potential.

Vandegrift

2025 RB Brendan Fournier (6-foot-1, 205 pounds) – One of the key leaders in the Vandegrift program, he appeared to me during workouts to being the pulse of the program. Fournier was a first team 25-6A district RB in 2023. Will be a big piece of the offense next fall.

2026 QB Miles Teodecki (6-foot-2, 205 pounds) – Will be competing for the starting job this spring. Teodecki has a solid frame plus a baseball background.

2026 WR Brock Chilton (5-foot-8, 165 pounds) – Smaller slot wide receiver prospect at Vandegrift. 2024 UNT signee Miles Coleman is departing and Chilton is expecting to takeover those targets and receptions. Was a 2nd team All-District honoree as a sophomore. Has potential to be a G5 guy.

2027 WR Gavin Koester (6-foot, 165 pounds) – Spent his last season as the quarterback on the freshman team. The Vandy staff mentioned his potential at slot on varsity this fall as someone to keep an eye on. Koester hopes to clear 11.0 seconds in the 100m dash this spring. He has potential with his height to develop into a D1 prospect.
