2023's Most Underrated Big XII Recruits
1. ATH Tony Terry, Kansas
Originally recruited as an edge rusher, the 6'5", 245 lb. Missouri native could also see time at tight end. He's an early enrollee and could make the two-deep on either side of the ball early in his career.
2. ATH Max Carroll, TCU
Carroll is a bit of a tweener at 6'3", 205 lbs on the defensive side of the ball, but he fits perfectly into the Star role in the Horned Frogs' defense. He plays with a relentless motor and will likely see special teams action immediately. Oh, and he's got speed to burn.
3. DE Amier Washington, Texas Tech
Joey McGuire stocked up on in-state talent in his first full recruiting class with the Red Raiders, adding 21 prep players from the Lone Star State, including Washington. the 6'2", 260 lb. DL is a bull as a run defender and has heavy hands as a pass rusher. Assuming he bulks up a little more, he could be a very versatile piece for TTU's defensive line.
4. CB Jason Duclona, UCF
A long, smooth corner at 6'1" 180 lbs., Duclona chose the Knights over a litany of SEC, Big Ten, and ACC offers. He'll get a chance to see the field early, as every team in the conference needs to run a lot of five and six DB sets.

5. WR Ja'Ryan Wallace, Houston
The Cougars have historically been one of the top passing offenses in the country, so it's no surprise that they've been able to find gems at receiver with all of the targets to go around. The 6'4" Wallace brings unique size to the position on the Cougars' roster and will be a menace in jump ball situations.
