Derek Stingley Jr. did not start the 2019 class rankings atop the list but that’s where the Baton Rouge (La.) Dunham ended up and there was not much serious debate of moving him from No. 1 after the all-star events.
Since he already started practicing with LSU, Stingley was not allowed to participate in the All-American Bowl in San Antonio but he had already established himself as the top-ranked prospect in the class and no one at either all-star event did enough to knock him off that top spot.
