<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='184007' first='Rushaun' last='Tongue']</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Tongue is a DB who absolutely jumps off of the screen on film. He is one of the most ball hawking DB's in the state if not the best when the ball is in the air. He is verbally committed to Wake Forest. I expect him to still land some bigger opportunities if he has a season like last year.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/rushaunn5/status/1508237218644733954?s=20u0026t=Py0XqDaq7f8i6OmGY_GSoQ","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/rushaunn5/status/1508237218644733954?s=20u0026t=Py0XqDaq7f8i6OmGY_GSoQ </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><br>[player_tooltip player_id='90662' first='Jamari' last='Somerville']</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Somerville is an ironman player; he is a key weapon on both sides of the ball. Defensively Jamari is a solid DB and brings power behind hit hits. When he gets int's he is very dangerous with the ball in his hands. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><br>[player_tooltip player_id='248539' first='Tony' last='Hart']</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Hart has proven to be one of the best DB's in the state regardless of division. His length and athleticism allow him to dominate opponents. He has great ball skills that translate from playing receiver on the offense side of the ball. I've had the opportunity to watch Hart in person in games and at 7-on-7 tournaments, he makes a jump ball difficult for opponents on either side of the ball. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/Tonyhartlll/status/1540500810936848384?s=20u0026t=Py0XqDaq7f8i6OmGY_GSoQ","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/Tonyhartlll/status/1540500810936848384?s=20u0026t=Py0XqDaq7f8i6OmGY_GSoQ </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><br>[player_tooltip player_id='249919' first='Jamari' last='Lewis'] With a lot of other key players graduating and transferring Lewis will naturally step into the spotlight. He is fast, rangy and plays with no fear, he has impressive ball skills that show on offense, comes downhill to make tackles and is a threat with the ball in his hands. His speed is deceptional, he covers a lot of ground with his long strides. Lewis has the opportunity to emerge as a leader on this Franklin team this season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/JLewis__3/status/1529576053899132928?s=20u0026t=Py0XqDaq7f8i6OmGY_GSoQ","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/JLewis__3/status/1529576053899132928?s=20u0026t=Py0XqDaq7f8i6OmGY_GSoQ </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><br>[player_tooltip player_id='322007' first='Andre' last='King']</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>King does a good job of getting to the right spot at the right time in the defensive backfield. He recorded more than a handful of interceptions last season, and even had some game winning big plays on both sides of the ball. He was at 6'1 175 last season, if he could put on just a few pounds and have a season with as many or more big plays than in 2021; that would make his recruiting stock rise tremendously.<br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
