<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>On Sunday, May 7th, the Pennsylvania Prep Redzone Next Rising Prospect Camp took part at the Spooky Nook complex in Manheim. While the overall number of prospects in attendance was a little light, the talent on display certainly was not. There were over 10 athletes on the 2027 Prep Redzone Next National Watchlist in attendance. There were also more than a few&nbsp;<strong><em>new</em></strong>&nbsp;names and faces that impressed. The prospects got a ton of reps on both sides of the ball and put in a ton of work.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>In addition to the <strong><a href="https://prepredzone.com/2023/05/prz-next-penn-rising-prospect-camp-gamechanger-mvps/">MVPs at each position</a></strong> and the <strong><a href="https://prepredzone.com/2023/05/pa-prz-next-rising-prospect-camp-skill-position-standouts/">standouts at the skill positions</a></strong>, here is a look at the Running Back's and Linebacker's that opened some eyes.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["480989"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":["override_image"],"_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":821209,"_player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":"field_62f141137ead9","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"With another year in youth football, I genuinely feel bad with the defenses tasked with stopping class of 2028 running back [player_tooltip player_id='480989' first='Jerome' last='Larue'] run the ball, because the seventh-grader can rumble. He's the complete package at the running back position standing 5-foot-9 and 150 pounds complete with the muscle, balance and agility. Did I mention he was hand-timed at a 4.5 and a 4.55 in the forty and was picked for best on best at the end?  He's going to be a really good one.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_player":["821253"],"_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":"The PRZ Next Rising Prospect Camp is designed for seventh and eighth graders (class of 2028 u0026amp; class of 2027) but Gibbs snook inu002du002dand I'm glad the 2029 prospect did. He did some good things at running back, but he looks like a future stud at the linebacker position. Moved exceptionally well in agility drills and had coaches surprised he was just in the sixth grade. Measured in at 5-foot-6 and 140 with long limbs. Looking forward to watching his development.","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_2_player_details_selected_featured_image":821833,"_player_evaluations_2_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_2_player_details_player_name":"Bryce Coleson","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_2_player_details_graduating_class":"2027","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_2_player_details_height":"5'9u0022","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_2_player_details_position":"2496","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_2_player_details_school":"","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_2_player_details_club_team":"","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_2_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_2_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"Coachable. That's the best word to describe Coleseon. I loved everything the 5-foot-8, 160-pounder brought to the table in terms of build, speed and intangibles. Found himself out of position in early position drills due to  not breaking down and playing out of control. However, after talking to him about harnessing his quickness and getting in a good position to be able to move, he fixed his ways on the very next rep.  Kid has a future, just not sure as to what level it's at yet. Potential here.","_player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_3_player_details_selected_featured_image":822852,"_player_evaluations_3_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_3_player_details_player_name":"Will Simmons","_player_evaluations_3_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_3_player_details_graduating_class":"2027","_player_evaluations_3_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_3_player_details_height":"5'10u0022","_player_evaluations_3_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_3_player_details_position":"2496","_player_evaluations_3_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_3_player_details_school":"","_player_evaluations_3_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_3_player_details_club_team":"","_player_evaluations_3_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_3_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_3_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"Simmons is a big linebacker that could have passed for a defensive lineman with his broader build, at 5-foot-10 and 190 pounds. I was pleasantly surprised to see his straight line speed, clocking a hand-timed 4.75 and a 4.81 in the forty on his two attempts. While his sprinting speed was on good, he struggled a bit in man coverage against some of the quicker, more agile backs during one-on-ones. Certainly made more good plays than bad at camp.","_player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_4_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_4_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_4_player_details_selected_featured_image":822824,"_player_evaluations_4_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_4_player_details_player_name":"Malique Campbell","_player_evaluations_4_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_4_player_details_graduating_class":"2027","_player_evaluations_4_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_4_player_details_height":"5'9u0022","_player_evaluations_4_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_4_player_details_position":"2411","_player_evaluations_4_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_4_player_details_school":"","_player_evaluations_4_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_4_player_details_club_team":"","_player_evaluations_4_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_4_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_4_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"Campbell is a prospect that physically looks a lot longer and taller than the 5-foot-9 and 155 pounds he was measured and weighed at.

Didn't see him make any u0022wowu0022 plays that made the indoor bubble shake, but was consistently pretty good throughout the day at both running back and linebacker.
