RNR Top 100 Class of 2032 Prospect Evaluation: Gaston Desinor

Position: Dual-Threat Quarterback
Height/Weight: 4’10” / 103 lbs
Team: Texas Triple D (10U)
Scheme: Wide-open, Air Raid-style offense

Gaston Desinor is a dynamic, dual-threat quarterback making waves on the 10U circuit in Texas. Standing 4’10” and weighing in at 103 lbs, Desinor has quickly earned a reputation for his ability to make plays both through the air and on the ground. His size, while on the smaller side for a quarterback, doesn’t limit his effectiveness. Desinor’s offensive coordinator takes advantage of his mobility, frequently rolling him out of the pocket, where his decision-making and touch on the run shine.

Desinor excels in the passing game, showcasing a smooth release and impressive accuracy on intermediate routes. His mechanics, though still developing, are sound enough to give him an edge in getting the ball out in above-average time, often leaving defenses flat-footed. His ability to deliver slants and curls with enough zip allows his receivers to maintain momentum and gain extra yards after the catch. This precise passing ability is complemented by his escapability, making him a true dual threat. When pressured, Desinor shows the instinct to tuck and run, capitalizing on broken plays and turning them into positive gains.

Although he plays against some weaker competition, the natural ease with which Desinor navigates the game shows his high football IQ and understanding of the sport’s complexities. In addition to his team play, Desinor also hones his skills in 7v7, where he continues to stand out as a polished passer. His ability to perform in high-tempo environments speaks to his future potential, especially as he refines his mechanics and footwork.

The biggest question mark surrounding Desinor is his size. At 4’10”, he’s smaller than many of his peers, but with the right growth spurt and continued development, Desinor could have a high ceiling. His ability to command the offense, make smart decisions, and deliver in key situations is undeniable. As he grows both physically and mentally in the game, expect Gaston Desinor to be a name that continues to resonate in Texas youth football.

Projection: High-potential dual-threat QB with strong mechanics and football IQ. Size could be a limiting factor, but his playmaking ability and athleticism make him one to watch in the years ahead.

RNR Top 100 Class of 2029 Prospect Evaluation: Matt Mizell

School: Jacksonville Bolles School (FL)
Position: Running Back
Height/Weight: 6’0”, 160 lbs

Matt Mizell has quickly emerged as one of the most intriguing prospects in the Class of 2029, showcasing a blend of size, agility, and playmaking ability that sets him apart from his middle school peers. At 6’0”, 160 lbs, Mizell possesses a physical profile typically seen in high school athletes, raising the question of whether he might eventually outgrow the running back position. However, for now, Mizell’s skill set allows him to dominate at the youth level.

Mizell’s ability to cut on a dime, combined with a slasher style, makes him a nightmare for defenses. He demonstrates impressive burst and gear-shifting speed, consistently outrunning defenders in the open field. On top of his quickness, he brings an edge to his game, using a powerful stiff arm to shed would-be tacklers. This rare combination of finesse and physicality has resulted in a highlight reel filled with standout touchdown runs.

One of Mizell’s key assets is his versatility. Not only can he be an every-down back, but he also excels in the passing game. His ability to catch out of the backfield and line up wide gives him the potential to be a dynamic offensive weapon at any level. This multifaceted skill set will be especially valuable as he transitions to higher levels of competition.

While middle school competition in Florida doesn’t always match the highest levels seen nationally, Mizell leaves no doubt that he’s head and shoulders above his peers. His competitiveness and will to dominate opponents suggest that he’ll be able to adapt smoothly to tougher competition, especially as part of a prestigious program like Bolles. With the school’s strong football tradition, Mizell could see action on JV or even Varsity if he continues to develop at this rapid pace.

Mizell is throwing his hat into the ring as one of the top five running backs in the country for the Class of 2029. His size, ability, and playmaking potential will be closely watched, and after his 8th-grade campaign, it’s likely we’ll revisit his status as one of the premier prospects in the nation.
