Dawson White Dawson White 5'11" | 190 lbs | RB Moore Co. | 2024 TN – QB – 5’11” 190 – Moore County HS / @Dawson_White6
Passing Stats: 142-215, 1,874 yards, 19 TD’s, 9 ints
Rushing Stats: 168 carries, 1,238 yards, 7.4 avg, 25 TD
This guy has really got some tools and is highly productive as a runner and passer. Shows good velocity on his deeper throws. Can fit the ball into a lot of tight spots. He does a very nice job surveying the field and goes through his progressions. Possesses good lateral movement and shows the ability to slip pressure and create second-chance opportunities. He has very good speed for the position. He is elusive and quick for his size and displays some start and stop ability.
Brady Gentry – WR – 6’3″ 185 – Gordonsville HS / @GVilleTigerFB
Receiving Stats: 26 receptions, 548 yards, 6 TD’s
A big play threat on the offensive side of the ball. He has good hands and is outstanding at competing for the ball. He has a good frame to continue to add muscle weight, and his height and long arms combined with his ball skills will let him beat receivers to jump balls and high passes.
Jarren Kinslow – RB/LB – 5’10” 178 – Huntland HS / @kinslowjarren3
Rushing Stats: 148 carries, 655 yards, 4.4 avg, 7 TD’s
Defensive Stats: 97 total tackles, 2 sacks, 2 FR
He is blessed with great acceleration, balance and vision. He uses his off hand as a weapon to fend off would-be tacklers. He can push a defender to the ground with his hand, turn, and accelerate all in one motion. On defense he’s a machine, he has decent technique and has room to improve and add strength but he has a very high ceiling. He makes a lot of plays now off raw ability, but once he is coached up, watch out.
Therion Mordecai – DB – 5’9″ 175 – Whitwell HS / @MordecaiTherion
Defensive Stats: 35 Total tackles, 4 TFL, 1 sack, 3 int, 1 FR
This kid shows sharp footwork and lateral agility. Has the feet to mirror. With polish, experience and full time college coaching, he should be able to transition smoothly out of his pedal; looks fluid in limited reps. He stays in the hip pocket of his man while using his solid hands and play speed to stay at arm’s length down the field.
Dounell Dobbs – WR – 5’8″ – Bluff City HS / @DobbsLll
18 receptions, 457 yards, 3 TD’s
He shows flashes of having a deep threat ability. He displays great body control which allows him to have the ability to adjust to the ball well. Showcases good contact balance after the catch. Possesses and shows sufficient speed, he displays an ordinary release package, with quickness and burst.
