Continue ReadingI had some free time so I decided to get my Twitter audience involved in a fun type of article where the young men, regardless of their class, posted their highlight film in a tweet that I put out for a chance to be in a Prep Redzone Article.

Without further ado, let’s take a look at the quick evals below consisting of a handful of young men in Illinois.

That’s it folks, those are the quick evals from Twitter Mania. I did my best to get through all of the Illinois young men that submitted their film to help get their name out there more. This is going to be an article series that I hope to do frequently during the off-season to help get as many young men’s names out there in front of college coaches’ eyes.
