The Virginia Academy transfer brought his A game catching everything through his way and making defenders look silly. Representing the NOVAKings, Meade made his presence known early and helped his squad advance in the tournament. As he transitions into a new school, you can see that is adjusting to the new environment well, looking forward to watching him ball this Fall.","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_player":["259542"],"_player_evaluations_2_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_2_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_2_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"While a lot has been made about the Erby brothers and rightfully so, enough cannot be said about how impressive Cesar was.  A dynamic speedy receiver, Cesar was a matchup nightmare all Saturday afternoon.rnrnhttps://twitter.com/carljfred/status/1634614871537877002?s=20rnrnEditor's note: My apologies on the twitter error he is Durrell Cesar, remember the name!","_player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_3_player":["370304"],"_player_evaluations_3_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_3_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_3_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"Cowan was a stud for AIT all weekend, I can see why he is one of top ranked players out of West Virginia for 2024.

What stood out most to me about Cowan is that it didn't matter who he was throwing too, he was making the proper reads.

Whether it was Erby or Kevin Atley (more on him below) this big time target went up and caught everything. There were a couple possession's where like clockwork, if AIT needed a first down, big play or touchdown the ball was going to Culmer each play. Very good outing from this top ranked recruit, wherever he lands next fall has a lot to work with.","_player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":5,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-640e0f0f6b383"} /-->
