On Tuesday, the first 16 players were named to the Finals, and four SEC commits were among the honorees.

According to the 247Sports composite, Nix is the No. 1 dual-threat quarterback in the class of 2019, while the other three are pro-style quarterbacks. Hilinski checks in at No. 6 at his position, with Tagovailoa in the No. 8 spot and Tyson in the No. 12 spot.
An SEC target, Grant Gunnell, also earned his spot. He is being pursued by Texas A&M, LSU and Arkansas, among others.
