Oregon Twitter Spotlights Of The Week

This week's Oregon twitter spotlight features two players that have a solid frame and good potential, and play significant roles for their teams. Here's a look at the offensive and defensive twitter players of the week: <span style="font-size: 18pt;"><strong>Defensive Spotlight<img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-108908" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/redzone/uploads/2021/02/PRZ-crop-750x492-1613408357-300x197.jpeg" alt="" width="300" height="197" /></strong></span> [player_tooltip player_id="28864" first="Zac" last="Waible"], <em>LB, 6’2" 210lbs, Lakreridge ’22</em> <em>Film: <a href="https://www.hudl.com/profile/11576466/Zac-Waible">https://www.hudl.com/profile/11576466/Zac-Waible</a></em> Waible is a strong kid with a good frame, and does a great job at LB for Lakeridge. He was awarded "1st Team All-State LB" and had himself a strong junior year. He shows a good football IQ with solid play recognition. He does a great job identifying opening lanes and meeting ball carriers at the LOS. He is a fundamental tackler and has showed some strength at the POA. He has an excellent nose for the football, as he frequently punches or strips opponents to force fumbles. Waible takes a good pursuit track toward ball carriers, and does a good job pursuing the ball on both sides of the field, sometimes making plays in the opposite second level along the boundary from the LB position. He is strong in zone coverage as he knows his responsibilities, tying back to that football IQ. He is a solid athlete across the board, as he also helped the Lakeridge lacrosse team recently win the state championship. He maintains a 3.65 GPA and is part of the National Honors Society, and projects to have a strong senior campaign. https://twitter.com/ZacWaible/status/1303773775771529216?s=20 <span style="font-size: 18pt;"><strong>Offensive Spotlight</strong></span> <strong>Tanner Relling</strong>, <em>OL, 6'4" 255lbs, Marist Catholic '22</em> <em>Film: <a href="https://www.hudl.com/profile/11810369/Tanner-Relling">https://www.hudl.com/profile/11810369/Tanner-Relling<img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-125161" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/redzone/uploads/2021/03/28649813-C4AB-4716-A208-A8B502BC5487.jpeg" alt="" width="300" height="200" /></a></em> Relling sizes up with an excellent size, frame, and length and is a standout player on both sides of the ball on the OL and DL for Marist Catholic. He has position versatility along the OL and can succeed from multiple positions. He displays solid leverage with good functional strength, and has flashed the ability to redirect opponents and create clear lanes for ball carriers to run through. He does a good job getting to the second level when needed as well. At RT and LT, he displays good bend and flexibility to get out and reach and control quick edge rushers. He holds ground well in a pass set and is developing into a very promising offensive lineman. Although he is a standout on both sides of the ball, colleges will like his frame and style as an offensive lineman. Relling projects to have a strong senior season for Marist Catholic, and will have to be a gritty kid along that OL.
