<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The 7th grade Future Stars of Tennessee overcame Kentucky 13-6 in Fortera Stadium home of Austin Peay in Clarksville, TN. Even though the score doesn't reflect a dominate performance, offensively Tennessee had a lot of production. Below I will highlight who I feel made the best of their opportunities in this talent filled Classic.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["424594"],"_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":"This talented prospect gets the QB1 nod from me. For the second year in a row, he put on a show for the Tennessee Future Stars. He's such a competitor that can get the job done with his arm and legs. His pocket presence reflects a young Joe Burrow as he evades pressure while effortlessly making sure he delivers the ball to wide open receivers when coverages break down. In the first drive versus Kentucky he did just that, putting his team on the board early. Besides his two highlight touchdown throws, Graham had the best run of the game when he was flushed to the short side of the field. Breaking tackles, spinning in traffic for 49 yards down to the 1 yard line solidified why this kid is a must have on your team.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_player":["423394"],"_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":"I think it's safe to say that Tennessee Future Stars Captain [player_tooltip player_id='423394' first='Koehn' last='Dial'] caught everyone's eye. Remember the name and please get the spelling correct! At almost 6'7 with a wingspan that can reach both sidelines, this gifted offensive tackle gets the job done. He is not hard to miss, but I guarantee you that he is hard to beat. The combination of long limbs and a strong core allows Koehn to hold off all the dogs so his backfield can eat. He moves well and plays smart. What else would you demand from your big man? Oh he plays to the echo of the whistle and was a big reason [player_tooltip player_id='424594' first='Graham' last='Simpson'] had success both in the air and on the ground when he was the main escort on his highlight run.","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_player":["906095"],"_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":"QB1's favorite target of the day goes to Mr. Stokes. In the first quarter he had a flawless route that was rewarded by a big gain in the middle of the field to keep the ball moving on a tough Kentucky secondary. Later on in the game he grabbed the quarterbacks attention when the scramble drill was in full affect, catching a key touchdown to put his team up 13-6 for the win.","_player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_3_player":["906125"],"_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":"Standing 5-foot-11 and 265 pounds, my man Zamari is built like a prototypical guard that will drive downfield whatever shade is lined up on him to create space for his ball carrier.
