5. Gavin Galish |QB| Indian Rock Chr| @Gavin_Galish

 Gavin Galish rounds out our top 5. Gavin is a rising arm talent that will be a name to remember this summer. He has a cannon for an arm, and a natural talent running the rock. Galish season was cut short last year due to injury, but he's ready to bounce back and show he's a next level guy.
