The QB House Midwest Retreat is nearly done with the scheduled bus tour taking a final stop at Georgia State University. Nine colleges in ten days has shown who the Dogs are while traveling throughout the states. Before the tour ends, let’s take a Quick Look at notable offers and interest attendees have generated from the tour.
Kendall Johnson | WR | 2025 | ZCA | @KxndallJxhnson
Tour offers: EKU, UTM, Austin Peay
Johnson has been a man amongst boys on the QB House Midwest Retreat. He’s been a DOG standout on the bus with multiple notable performances that have surprised some college coaches. It’s good work to take kids with his talent level out of state because it’s hard to replicate Florida speed and mentality. Johnson has picked up a few much deserved offers and has been a top performer at each camp so far.
Damari Green | DB | 2025 | Lakewood | @14Damarigreen
Tour offers: Ball State, Hope College, KCU
Green is a baller that has been the top riser since starting the QB House Midwest Retreat. With a 6-1 frame, Green has long arms and excellent breaks in coverage that will take him to the next level. This kid is a lockdown defender! I’m a believer now, as I was told about his elite coverage skills and technique at the position. He earned a much deserved offer from Kentucky State after strapping up wide receivers at the EKU camp.
Jaylen White | QB | 2026 | Clearwater | @jaylen_white12
Tour offers: Miami Ohio, EKU
Not sure if there has been anyone more talented than this kid at majority of the camps attended on the QB House Midwest Retreat. He has the chance to play big-time ball because of his cool confidence and elite playing talent at the QB position. He can slang the pill around and use his legs when needed to be dynamic. I knew this kid was an athlete but his arm talent and advanced mechanics has locked him in as one of the better QBs not just on the bus but period so far.
Jerry Thomas | WR | 2026 | Lakeland | @Showtime2swift
Tour offers: EKU
Thomas is no doubt the other DOG wide receiver standout on the bus who brings that Florida energy when he takes the field. He’s been one of the more underrated kids in the Polk area but will have the chance to show college coaches he can produce throughout the season. He’s been the best looking WR at most of the camps so far. He earned an EKU offer after dominating their camp while showing off his 6-3 frame, solid route running, and growing catch radius.
Evan Brady | QB | 2025 | @Evan_Brady12
Tour offers: KCU
Brady has some of the better deep ball accuracy that I’ve seen. It’s pure arm talent that he wants to use at the next level under center. He’s a 4.6 type speed kid that can slang the rock downfield. He also earned a well deserved offer from Kentucky State.
John Angelo | QB | 2025 | Tarpon Springs | @John_Angelo_1
Tour offers: Capital, Olivet Nazarene
The QB House Midwest Retreat was most beneficial for kids like Angelo who has the college ready frame and arm talent to lead some schools at the next level. He’s received a couple DIII offers with more interested coaches getting his information after two solid mega camp performances at Miami Ohio and UIndy. Plenty of time for this kid to continue working on his game for more exposure.
Ayden Wallace | QB | 2026 | Lakewood | @aydendwall16
Interest: Eastern Michigan
Wallace has truly impressed me with how he can naturally spin it. His development over the past two seasons is inspiring and testament to the training Coach BJ Hall put these rising QBs through. He’s a problem now with the ball in his hands as he has rocket arm strength and pinpoint accuracy to complete all throws on the route tree. He’s fresh off an impressive spring which has translated on the tour.
Dylan Nahra | QB | 2025 | Boca Ciega | @DylanNahra
Interest: Manchester University
Productive week on the Midwest Retreat for Nahra who has shown college coaches he has the arm talent to lead a program. The natural lefty is smooth with his mechanics and throws a tight spiral. Nahra was on point today at the UIndy camp which caught the eyes of a couple college programs. A productive fall season will help Nahra lock in some legit college interest.
Jadon Olaffson | QB | 2025 | Milford | @OlafssonJadon
Interest: Harvard, Bucknell, EKU, GVSU
Olaffson is a great kid with a bright future because of his coachability and confidence on the gridiron. He caught the eye of various colleges who nearly offered him after a nice day spinning it at UIndy. Couple more inches taller and this kid would be big-time in the area.
Mekell King | ATH | 2026 | Sunlake | @KingMekell
King has been a notable riser on the tour who has shown some DOG potential as he has racked up reps at both the defensive back and wide receiver position. Really impressed with King and his effort throughout the tour. Once he hits the weights in the summer and works on speed, King can develop into one of the better DBs in the area.
Josh Barnes | DL | 2025 | Sunlake | @JoshuaBarnes07
Tour offers: FSCC
One thing I don’t have to worry about with this kid is effort. He puts it all on the line at each camp and the added reps will help him know what needs to be worked on and what to build on. Barnes is a good sized defensive end who has potential to add more weight and tweak his technique. He picked up a verbal offer from the Florida State Cobras.
