Riddick is a highly athletic dominate player off the line of scrimmage, and it is easy to tell that when you look at his stats- last fall Riddick ended up posting up 109 tackles (19 for loss), 7 sacks, 3 interceptions, 4 pass breakups, and 2 fumble recoveries (1 forced) on the season. Riddick has a ridiculous first step, tons of speed, bend, and a great set of pass rush skills that have allowed him to completely take over in games. Offensive lines seem to shift towards his side of the field every snap and still have little success, he commands their attention and still has the athleticism, talent, and skill to absolutely embarrass them. Riddick, a top tier recruit, has received offers from all over the nation but decided to commit to Georgia last November- providing the defending national champs a dominant player in their 2024 class.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_player":["132050"],"_player_evaluations_1_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"[player_tooltip player_id='132050' first='Jaylen' last='Mbakwe'] has steadily become one of the top CB prospects in the nation during his time at Clay-Chalkville, and is set up for a massive senior season this fall. Mbakwe is a special kind of athlete, his 10.4 100 meter speed paired with his size, physicality, instincts, and hands allow for him to shut down everyone he lines up against. Mbakwe is a lockdown corner with tons of strong coverage skills while also being a big factor in the run game as well. He does a great job locating the ball carrier and using his speed  and acceleration to pursue and make big time tackles no matter where he is lined up on the start on the play.  Mbakwe has picked up offers from nearly everyone in the nation, but committed to Alabama last summer!","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_player":["422743"],"_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":"[player_tooltip player_id='422743' first='Jordan' last='Ross'] is a prospect that has rose rapidly in our 2024 Rankings and rightfully so, he's a destructive defensive linemen with a ton of versatility, talent and skill to offer to any defensive front. Ross is huge- standing at 6'5 215 he physically overpowers opposing linemen  on a weekly basis. His size, strength, speed, and lengthy arms really set him up for success- using those traits he rushes the passer and stops the run with such ease it is ridiculous. Ross also has a motor that wont quit,  you rarely see him get tired and he has the ability to just play at a really high level all four quarters. As mentioned earlier, Ross has progressed at a super impressive rate, and if he continues at this speed he is going to be a tough player to stop for a really long time.  Currently, Ross lists offers from Georgia, Alabama, Tennessee, and tons of other top programs across the nation!","_player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_3_player":"","_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":"[player_tooltip player_id='237804' first='Cameron' last='Coleman'] is a seriously talented, versatile WR that can make plays lined up both inside and outside- which has been a huge benefit for Central's passing attack. Coleman is a incredibly skilled athlete, his size, speed, acceleration, hands and physicality he plays with make him a massive threat against opposing secondaries. On tape, he shows that he has the knowledge and ability to run a wide variety of routes at a high level, and has the athleticism to make some absolutely ridiculous catches through contact and over the top of defenders. Last fall, Coleman had a really productive season- posting up 31 receptions for 542 yards and 6 touchdowns on the year. Of course, this kind of talent and production has not gone unnoticed- Coleman has developed into a top WR prospect in the 2024 class and has received offers from Auburn, Alabama, LSU, and nearly everyone else across the nation.","_player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_4_player":["360378"],"_player_evaluations_4_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_4_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_4_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_4_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_4_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"[player_tooltip player_id='360378' first='Jeremiah' last='Beaman'] is one of the many talented members of Parker's stacked defense and has been a force to be reckoned with in the trencehs the last few seasons. Beaman is a big, athletic defensive linemen that plays with so much speed and aggression in every way possible. Beaman has a really good set of pass rush moves , can get after the run incredibly quickly, and has the pursiut and closing speed to assure that no ball carrier is going to break away from him. Last fall was a big year for Beaman as he posted up 50 total tackles (10 for loss), 10 sacks, 3 interceptions on the season. Keep an eye on not only Beaman, but the rest of tbhis Parker squad this fall. They are filled to the brim with talent and potential and are going to be a fun team to watch this fall. Currently, Beaman lists offers from Alabama, Auburn, Clemson, and tons of other great programs at the next level.","_player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":5,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6463b4df34501"} /-->
