Evan Prater, redshirt sophomore
Prater was the highest offensive signee when he committed to the Bearcats three years ago. The Wyoming High School star was a four star quarterback that a lot of major programs wanted a piece of. He decided to stay home and last season was the back to Ridder. He played in five games, didn’t light the world on fire, but had a few good moments.
2021 stats: 5-of-11 passing, 38 yards, 2 touchdowns and 1 interception on 45.5%. 12 rushes, 105 yards, 8.8 yards per rush and 2 touchdowns
The key for Prater is to continue to show improvement in his passing game, he has a rocket arm, but he will have to improve on his accuracy and touch. His legs will be a weapon whenever he touches the field, but he will have to keep making improvements in the passing game. He will be in a battle with returning transfer Ben Bryant in the spring and fall.
