This kid has what it takes to be great at the next level. it will be great to see him perform during 7on7s and throughout his remaining time at Tupelo.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-63ffb2a381e69"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["273254"],"_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":"Odom is considered by many to be a 3 star prospect with great upside and potential. Marlin possesses great speed and agility to get open against any type of coverage. Odom looks like a promising prospect who will do well at the college level. So far Odom has received various offers including Jackson State, Memphis Univeristy and more. I expect Marlin to occur more offers as the season continues.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-63ffb2a381f24"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["344100"],"_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":"Harrell took his team deep into the playoffs this past season and will most likely do so next season as well.

I am certain that Harrell will be one of the top prospects in the state over the next few years.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-63ffb2a381f78"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["616683"],"_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":"Broomfield is a solid competitor and an elite defensive back. Because of his excellent performance on the field Patrick has been attracting attention from several notable programs including Mississippi State and Liberty University. His skill and confidence allows for him to shut down some prolific receivers and come up with big time turnovers.

This past season Patterson was extremely productive hitting his receivers in stride on various routes. What stands out is his mobility in the bocket and his vision while doing so. His internal clock is what has allowed him to be as productive as he was this season. He has received interest from multiple power 5 programs and has also received an offer from Central Arkansas. Patterson should see more offers come his way as he continues to progress.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-63ffb2a382019"} /-->
