Christopher Vizzina sets commitment date, names finalists

Four-star quarterback Christopher Vizzina of Birmingham (Ala.) Briarwood Christian will announce his commitment on Tuesday, April 12th.

The 6-foot-3, 195 pounder will choose between Notre Dame, Auburn, Ohio State, Clemson, Georgia, and Ole Miss.

Vizzina recently earned an invitation to the Elite 11 Finals this summer in Los Angeles.

He ranks as the No. 40 player in the On3 Consensus, a complete and equally-weighted average of all four major recruiting services. Vizzina is ranked as the No. 5 QB and the 7th best player in Alabama. However, On3 ranks him higher than the industry, as he comes in at the No. 20 player nationally, the 4th best QB, and No. 4 player in Alabama.

Christopher Vizzina Scouting Summary 

Quarterback with translatable tools and the best feet among top signal callers in the 2023 cycle. Has ideal size at 6-foot-3, 195 pounds. Consistently shows twitchy, explosive movements in his lower body. Plays with outstanding feet and has some of, if not the best pocket movement and awareness of top quarterbacks in the 2023 cycle. A loose, athletic mover. Comfortable stepping up into the pocket or moving outside to escape pressure. Shows a strong arm in game and camp settings. Primarily delivers from the same arm slot on most passes.

He was among the more efficient passers among top 2023 quarterbacks as a junior, though he did not have quite the number of attempts as many others. Has the burst and top-end play speed to present a considerable run threat, rushing for 15 touchdowns as a junior. Shows the speed to pull away against one of the faster high school teams in the Southeast. Plays against some of the stronger competition among top quarterbacks nationally. Still relatively new to the position after starting to play quarterback as an 8th grader. Also significantly younger than many other top quarterbacks with an April birthday.
