In the past seasons, Trey has racked up 21 TD's on offense, with an additional 6 interceptions and 2 returned for scores. I have had the honor to watch this young Lone Star prospect in action and he is only scratching the surface of his full potential. The work ethic is there, and with a solid foundation around him, he is only going to continue to make gains at alarming speeds. Speaking of speed, he is u0022Finney Fast.u0022 Breaking records and setting new PR's on the track is another passion that just fuels his performances on the football field as well. Once you see the back of his jersey, I highly recommend you save your energy for the next play because you're not going to catch him. When it's all said and down it will not come as a surprise to see him as one of the best all around talents in his class nationally. Nebraska and Arkansas St. obviously share the same sentiment as they extended offers in the past couple weeks.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-645bc78493cc2"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["818096"],"_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":"u003cpu003eHarrison is coming through the ranks of Southlake Carrol, which is a solid program that finds themselves on the winning column more times than not. With that being said, playing Quarterback comes with certain expectations that can transform itself into unwanted pressure. Well, Harrison wants all the smoke. Allow him to sit in the pocket, he will deliver the ball to his receivers pretty accurately on timing routes. Bring pressure and try to collapse the pocket, cool, he will just vacate premises and weave through would be tacklers to the end zone with his long stride. As he grows vertically and his arm get stronger, he will have options. During the off-season he plays not on QB but WR as well on his championship 7on7 team.u003c/pu003e","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_player":["818131"],"_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":"u003cpu003eStarting off with your hand in the dirt brings a certain grit to a player as they evolve into more of a skills position or have the option to not always play in a three point stance. Travon has experience as both a offensive and defensive lineman. Thankfully some genius youth coach saw it fit to try this young man at Linebacker. Genius is a sarcastic exaggeration of a common sense decision in my humble opinion lol. Now this kid is terrorizing the same bigs he used to go to war with face to face, but from distance. In March he was named MVP at UA camp and you can find videos of him leading the charge on kickoff blasting down the middle of blockers to de-cleating the deep returner. I see him using the same hand combat techniques and leverage used upfront to become a big time LB.u003c/pu003e","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_player":["485516"],"_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":"The nickname u0022Lockdownu0022 says a lot but I believe limits this players ability. [player_tooltip player_id='485516' first='Jordan' last='Hall'] is a legit multi-sport athlete! If he's not intercepting deep ball threats with one hand, then he's running back kicks, or taking a backfield exchange to the house. He has good traps and shoulders with long limbs on his growing 5'8 + frame. Watching him accelerate in between traffic and pull away defenders with perfect angles is fun to watch. He has special sprinkled on him.","_player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_3_player":["425453"],"_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":"u003cpu003eThis lengthy 6'0 160 pound field general is out of Lovejoy feeder program. He has a lot of ability and is a leader on the field. CJ sees the field well and trusts his instincts to get the ball into his playmakers hands. It's not often you can see young QB's go through their progression and feel comfortable staying in the pocket when throwing lanes are not wide open. CJ has also displayed the ability to set feet and get the ball out of his hands quickly. u003c/pu003e","_player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":4,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-645bc4a3cdc9d"} /-->
