<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>As we head toward the 2022 Fall season, many top recruits have a fair understanding of where they will likely fall in the recruiting game. A vast majority have attended summer college camps and also submitted their jr film to coaches at schools they would like to attend. Some recruits without any fault of their own, are not well educated in the process as to how to market their abilities to get on a college radar for recruitment. Therefor, they fall under the recruiting radar and dont get the attention they deserve. What ever the reason maybe, New England Prep Redzone regional scouts have identified linebackers currently without an offer, and who we feel are worthy of an opportunity at the next level. We will do this no specific order.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"id":"block_630505f4e90d8","name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["396914"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"u0022Petersonu0022 is a Linebacker recruit who we got alerted to after our initial launch of Prep Redzone New England. Therefore, he was never evaluated in the 2023 rankings that are currently being displayed on the website. Pushing forward, he belongs within our rankings and will be added to our 2023 rankings on the next release toward the end of the fall 2022 season. The first 5 clips of jr film, show Nicks's sideline-to-sideline range. He is a vicious tackler. He's so quick through the gala, even if he happens to over-pursue, he shows extreme effort to still follow the ball carrier. His motor is continuous. Plays with pure aggression. An inside LB that will make the ball carrier feel the thump. A productive senior season will likely put him over the hump as he has a slew of D1 programs including IVY League teams, showing interest. Many D2-D3 schools will likely check him out during and after senior campaign. His film is impressive!!!","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"align":"","mode":"preview"} /--> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/nickypeterson44/status/1466162101093867520?s=20u0026t=wlw9S_Q0B1He-ktvgiAwHA","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/nickypeterson44/status/1466162101093867520?s=20&amp;t=wlw9S_Q0B1He-ktvgiAwHA </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"id":"block_63050778e90d9","name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["398760"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"Shorette has good instincts.
