Impact Player for Richmond Burton

Richmond Burton and Hall of Fame head coach Mike Noll truly went "young" in 2024 and started a tremendous amount of underclassmen last fall. The Rockets will welcome back an impressive 16 returning starters (8 offense 8 defense) and half of those starters will be juniors or sophomore this fall. Richmond Burton junior RB Hunter Carley ran for just over 1100 yards and will be a major key in the Rockets power running game. On the defensive side of the football keep an eye on junior DE Breckin Campbell who is another 2027 grad with impressive size length and physical tools and upside.

Looking for a sleeper name to watch for Richmond Burton? Senior to be RB/DB Luke Johnson was a full time two way starter in 2024 for the Rockets and he will be asked to again provide production and leadership for a young yet experienced Rockets team this fall.

EDGY's Preseason Thoughts on the 2025 Richmond Burton Rockets

Richmond Burton has been on a pretty damn impressive run over the past 5-7 seasons under Mike Noll. The Rockets in 2025 should be on an upswing in my opinion and while this team might not have overwhelming eyeball passing talent at times...this football program truly works hard and just gets after it week in and week out. The conference in general is solid and while the Rockets will get a handful of in season tests (especially early vs MCC and Coal City) I look for the Rockets to again be the Kishwaukee River conference favorite in 2025.

The biggest question facing Richmond Burton this summer?

Can Richmond Burton gwt back into the IHSA state playoff field and make a deep run inn 2025? Also...can the Rockets avoid having it's season ended in the post-season by one of the Catholic school powers? Richmond Burton has seen more than it's share of Catholic school powers over the years and that list reads like a who's who in IHSA football. The past four seasons the Rockets ended it's season to St. Laurence, St. Viator, Providence Catholic and JCA. Loom for the Rockets to again make the 2025 IHSA state playoff field and this upcoming post-season will look a bit different as several of the Catholic powers will be moved up a class or two...which in my opinion truly could benefit a handful of public school 4A powers including Richmond Burton.
