Under Armour All-American Game 2012: Thomas Johnson and Names You Need to Know

The 2012 Under Armour All-American game is a great way for high school talent across the country to showcase their talents to college football coaches and high school football fans across the country.

Every year, those players that have already committed to schools show why these programs made the right or wrong moves.

While those storylines are fun to watch, the uncommitted players are the ones that have the most to lose in this game and are trying harder than ever before.

All of the following players need to be on every college football fan's radar because they will be stars sooner rather than later.

Thomas Johnson—Coming into the weekend, people were talking about how Thomas Johnson was a top 25 player in this game, but nothing more.

Through the first few days of practice, Johnson turned the heads of many scouts at this event. The 6’0” slot receiver is fearless with sure hands and the Texas Longhorns are sure glad the youngster committed with them.

If Johnson can continue to develop, he could be to the Longhorns what Jordan Shipley was when Colt McCoy was still slinging the ball in Texas.

Deion Sanders Jr.—That’s right, Prime Time’s kid is all grown up. The 5’8” quarterback is uncommitted at this point, but his success at the college level will be decided in how his team handles his position.

There is a chance he could be a slot receiver/running back combination that can pass as well out of a spread, but he also may be a talented cornerback like his father. Definitely worth a shot.

This game will be Sanders' coming out party, and he will have offers from colleges pouring in even more than before. Under Armour is about to go Prime Time.

Trey Griffey—Another legend’s son on this list is the son of Seattle Mariners baseball legend Ken Griffey Jr., Trey, who stands at 6’2” and plays wide receiver.

Griffey has all of the physical tools to play wide receiver, but if his lack of top-end speed hurts him at the college level, look for his team to move him to safety.

With the styles of offenses that they run in college football today, there is a good chance that whatever school Griffey ends up attending, he will play both offense and defense at some point in his career.
