🏈 CCS SCOUT RECAP | TEXAS × LOUISIANA
Two recent scouting stops: Gladewater vs. Tatum and Ruston vs. Alexandria. Plenty of talent—and reminders why getting eyes on athletes in person matters.
📍 RUSTON vs. ALEXANDRIA
FINAL: Alexandria 27–21
A physical, hard-fought game tied 14–14 at halftime. Both programs responded to adversity, and Alexandria delivered key plays down the stretch.
🔎 Jakyrin Griffin | Alexandria | S/ATH
📈 CCR™: 9.3/10
@K_himothy
One of my biggest standouts. K5 impacted both sides of the ball. Closing speed, physical tackling, a jet-sweep chase-down stop, and an interception kept putting him in my notes. After seeing him compete in person, I have him at 9.3.
🔎 Kason Williams & Noble Williams | Alexandria | RBs
⭐ Kason CCR™: 9.2/10
⭐ Noble CCR™: 9.3/10
@Kasongothands @nwilliams_4god
Both ran with power and great vision. Kason showed the ability to cut back, get outside, and finish—including a power TD, a 35+ yard gain, and a late 10-yard cutback run. Noble’s patience in short yardage stood out. This backfield makes a defense earn every stop.
🔎 Karsen Sellers | Alexandria | QB
CCR™: 8.9/10
@karsensellers
Made plays with his arm and legs. A touchdown run and critical fourth-quarter completions highlighted his ability to deliver in important situations. Extended a late play to find Alex Fontenot for a key first down and connected with Kelton “KJ” Ray in the fourth quarter.
🔎 Alex Fontenot | Alexandria | WR
CCR™: 9.2/10
@AlexFontenot27
Delivered a critical late reception to move the chains. An important contribution in a game decided by one possession.
🔎 Ahmad Hudson | Ruston | TE
Preliminary CCR™: 9.7/10
@AhmadHudson9
The catching ability is real. An incredible one-handed TD catch was erased by a penalty, but he later scored on a back-shoulder fade. Credit Alexandria’s defense for making Ruston work to get him involved.
🔎 Dalen Powell | Ruston | RB
Preliminary CCR™: 9.3/10
@DalenPowell
Physical running, vision, and an explosive 60-yard run. Showed he could create a big play as well as run with power.
🔎 Letravious Williams | Alexandria | Safety
📈 Updated CCR™: 8.9/10 — previously 8.6
@LetraviousWill2
Made plays in space and finished multiple tackles against high-level competition. The bigger the competition, the bigger he continues to play.
At this point in my evaluation, his height takes a back seat to what he puts on film. Closing space, finishing tackles, and producing against talented opponents support the increase.

📈 Upside: G5 Evaluation
Don’t let the measurements keep you from watching the player. 💯
Additional defensive notes: Tyler Bowman with a sack and Alexandria’s #4 linebacker with a sack.
📍 GLADEWATER vs. TATUM + LATEST PROSPECT UPDATES
Turnovers and responses to adversity shaped this matchup. Both teams faced difficult moments, and Tatum handled those stretches better.
🔎 Quincy Davis | Tatum | SS/OLB
CCR™: 8.9/10
@Quincydavis2027
Continues to dominate defensively and force turnovers. His ability to impact possessions keeps giving college staffs reasons to take a closer look.
🎯 LOP: FCS Scholarship Prospect | Strong D2+
🔎 Trayvion Watts | Gladewater | RB/LB
CCR™: 9.0/10
@TrayvionWatts
Since that matchup, Trayvion bounced back with his biggest game of the year:
🔥 27 carries
🔥 261 rushing yards
🔥 3 touchdowns
🔥 9.7 yards per carry
Now at 1,227 rushing yards on the season.
Power, vision, balance, and finish—backed by production against quality East Texas competition.
