💎Diamonds In The Rough C/O 2023: Pt 6

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Western Pennsylvania is a region that's rich with football talent yearly. The transfer portal has altered recruiting for high school prospects in terms of visibility. Due to the abundance of eligible recruits, some high school athletes have become recruiting collateral damage. I'm going to be highlighting some of the underrated or unheralded prospects around western pa in the 2023 &amp; 2024 classes. These recruits spotlighted are either uncommitted or haven't been offered altogether in a lot of cases. These gems will be introduced in a series of articles to adequately spotlight their abilities.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"id":"block_636077a941566","name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["92379"],"_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":"u003cp class=u0022p1u0022u003eKent's latest offer came by way of FCS St.Francis on 10/22/22. Dayton has also offered the senior Linebacker. McMahon is a hard-thumping, aggressive, physical Linebacker for Head coach Mike Evans. He's a sure open-field tackler that displays good form u0026amp; leverage. McMahon's a smart player whose play recognition is sharp. The 23' LB goes hard every play causing explosive hits u0026amp; collisions consistently. Kent's bulk u0026amp; speed is adequate for the position collegiately at 6'2 215 lbs. He's a good Blitzer that's active in general. McMahon's pass drops into zone coverage show his fluid mobility. Canon Mac's veteran LB will be a valuable contributor on special teams on the next level.u003cspan class=u0022Apple-converted-spaceu0022u003e u003c/spanu003eu003c/pu003e","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"align":"","mode":"edit"} /--> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/KentMcMahon44/status/1583935725942472704?s=20u0026t=CMCyea4eeM9lYr9k-p5DwA","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/KentMcMahon44/status/1583935725942472704?s=20&amp;t=CMCyea4eeM9lYr9k-p5DwA </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"id":"block_636077f641567","name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["99861"],"_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":"u003cp class=u0022p1u0022u003eSincere has good speed mixed with college size at 6'1 175 lbs.
