Historical Context and Class Ranking

247Sports ranks the Aztecs recruiting class at No. 76.

Position-by-Position Breakdown

Offense

Quarterback: The Aztecs signed just one quarterback, Brady Campbell of Frontier High in Bakersfield. The top two quarterbacks currently at SDSU are junior transfers Jayden Denegal, who got the bulk of the snaps, and Bert Emanuel Jr.

Wide receivers: The Aztecs added three players to their relatively young and inexperienced wideout corps. They include Carson Diehl of La Jolla High, one of two local players to sign; Daishaun Davis and Derek Stevenson. The Aztecs’ most experienced wideout, sophomore Jordan Napier, suffered a season-ending knee injury against Boise State on Nov. 15 yet still earned All-Mountain West honors.

Offensive linemen: The Aztecs added three Californians to a unit that had four senior starters: Brian Borjon, Harlem Nellum and Jarvis Williams.

Tight ends: Jack Ellis and Elijah Muliufi join a position group that mostly blocks.

Running back: Josiah Lucas joins a running back room that includes 1,000-yard rusher Lucky Sutton, a San Diegan who will be a senior.

Defense

The Aztecs added 12 signees to the MW’s top overall defense.

Edge rushers: Joining the room led by two-time All-MW performer Trey White, a junior, are Dominic Coelho and Crosby Kelly are from in-state while Robby Lavata'i is from Washington.

Linebackers: Alijah Lash, JC transfer Jeramiah Lewis and Javari Nash join a group led by SDSU’s leading tackler and All-MW first-teamer Owen Chambliss, who is just a sophomore.

Safeties: Cameron Purnell of Lincoln High is one of two San Diegans to sign, joining fellow safeties Rahmeer Henderson and Tainoa Lave.

Linemen: Roman Paseka and Koi Taiese join a unit that will lose two senior starters.

Cornerback: Dareon Edmonds joins a unit that will lose two seniors, including Chris Johnson, the co-MW Defensive Player of the Year and a projected NFL first-round draft pick.
