Boerne, TX — In the tradition-rich landscape of Texas high school football, every few years a talent emerges that shifts the gravity of an entire program. For the Boerne Greyhounds, that player is Grant Sweeney.

Returning to his Boerne roots for his junior season, the 6'3", 196-pound quarterback didn't just step into the spotlight—he ignited it. As the San Antonio Gunslingers Player of the Year, Sweeney has officially cemented his status as the premier "Floor General" of the gridiron in the Class of 2027.

The Statistical Masterclass: Elite Production

Sweeney’s 2025 campaign was defined by staggering efficiency and a "video game" level of production. He led the Greyhounds to a 10-game win streak and a deep run to the State Semifinals, producing numbers that put him at the very top of the Texas leaderboards.

Scouting Report: The Complete Dual-Threat

What makes Sweeney a nightmare for defensive coordinators is his ability to win in two completely different ways.

  • The Pocket Passer: With a 10.5-inch hand size and elite arm talent, Sweeney can make every throw on the route tree. His 4,296 passing yards were earned through tight-window strikes and veteran-level anticipation.

  • The Dynamic Runner: Clocked with a 4.58-second 40-yard dash, Sweeney is a threat to score the moment he tucks the ball. His 1,075 rushing yards prove he is just as dangerous with his legs as he is with his arm.

  • The "Big Game" Gene: Under the bright lights of the Alamodome and high-stakes UIL playoff shootouts—including a legendary 470-yard performance against Alamo Heights—Sweeney’s composure never wavered.

Recruiting Watch

Holding a 4.0 GPA and early offers from UTSA, North Texas, UTEP, and UNLV, Sweeney is one of the most coveted underclassmen in the country. Currently ranked as a Top 45 QB nationally by 247Sports, his trajectory is pointing straight toward the Saturday stage.

"Grant Sweeney is a pure 'Floor General' of the gridiron. He possesses the physical measurables of a prototypical QB1 combined with a high-IQ approach that allows him to dismantle even the most complex 5A defenses."
