5 Recruits Breaking Out Right Before Our Eyes

<p>The state of Indiana is loaded and every year the talent pool gets deeper. So far this season, these 5 guys are adding their names to the mix of guys to watch out for at the next level.</p>   <h2 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='603982' first='Jarrin' last='Alley'] - Bloomington South - QB - 6'2" 195lbs - 2024</h2>   <p>Alley has come out and taken the first two weeks by storm lighting up the defense on the field. He's been incredibly confident and looks very poised in the pocket. He's been going through his reads with ease and making the throw on the money. His footwork is fairly clean compared to years past and he's making plays on the move as well as in the pocket. So far this year, he's done a good job navigating in the pocket and keeping the ball safe. Alley threw 1 TD on Friday where he saw the LB coming straight down the pipe. Laid him out, but Alley hung in there and made the throw. He's making every throw and has plenty of arm talent to make the throw needed. On top of how he looks, he's putting up big numbers. Some guys have the light come on at different times, and Alley's clicked in Week 1. Through 2 weeks he's thrown for 450 yards and 6 TDs while adding 2 TDs on the ground. Alley's been on fire to start the year and with the confidence he's got right now, I don't see it slowing down anytime soon</p>   <p>Twitter: <strong>@AlleyJarrin</strong></p>   <h2 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='863813' first='Blake' last='Vanek'] - Highland - QB - 6'2" 185lbs - 2024</h2>   <p>Vanek has been as dynamic as anyone to start the year. He's done quite a bit of damage from both the air and the ground and looks like he's fitting the offense and what they're asking him to do perfectly. He's a dual-threat QB who is a great athlete and explosive. Oftentimes, it feels like he's the best athlete on the field, which is why he's able to make so many plays happen. Through the air, he's got 222 passing yards and 2 TDs, but it's what he's done with his legs that has changed the game. 350 rushing yards and 5 TDs, both games being over 100 yards and breaking an incredibly impressive 64-yard TD run. Vanek is twitchy and accelerates and explodes through the hole as quickly as anyone. His 6'2" frame allows him to chew up chunks of yardage at a time. Just under 600 scrimmage yards and 7 TDs through 2 games is as good as anyone could have asked of Vanek to start the year.</p>   <p>Twitter: <strong>@BlakeVanek7</strong></p>   <h2 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='291351' first='Noah' last='Brown'] - East Central - OL - 6'0" 235lbs - 2027</h2>   <p>Brown is an impressive freshman who is not only starting right away for the off-and-rolling state champions, but he's a big part of the success they're having upfront. They no doubt have an elite back, but that elite back has had some big holes to run through this year thanks to the big guys up front. This big guy is just a freshman and looks like he's got a year under his belt already. He's been good on the move and has done a good job tracking his man through the madness on the move. While there are some moments of hesitation, you have to remember he's a freshman starting for one of the best programs in the state. He'd holding his own and winning in pass protection as well, so as he builds his frame up and develops over the next 4 years, he could easily be one of the top prospects in the entire class.</p>   <p>Twitter: <strong>@NoahBro7152</strong></p>   <h2 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='797496' first='Jacob' last='Kleeman'] - Zionsville - OL - 6'3" 265lbs - 2024</h2>   <p>Kleeman looks as good as any offensive lineman right now and is only getting better. He's exploding off the ball and removing defensive linemen out of frame like it's personal down after down. He's playing with a level of consistency in the running game that can be contagious and something excites the guys around him. He keeps his hands inside and drives straight out every time. Violent blocks that you see back on tape is one of the cornerstones of an OL room. He's then done a good job in pass protection by staying light on his feet and redirecting. Keeping the pocket clean while showing you can move your feet is always a big thing for a lineman up front, especially a tackle. His length is real and seems like he could slide right into any of the 4 interior/exterior spots on the line. The best part about Kleeman is he's been developing all these years primarily on the left, so he's more likely to be able to help an offensive line protect the blindside much sooner than later.</p>   <p>Twitter: <strong>@JacobKleeman</strong>_</p>   <h2 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='975359' first='Davonte' last='Dungy'] - Warren Central - LB - 5'11" 215lbs - 2025</h2>   <p>Dungy is a name that is going to pick up as much steam as anyone over the next few months. After 2 weeks, it's clear that he's going to be an instrumental piece of that defense for the next 2 years, which will just be tapping into his potential. He's an incredible-looking athlete and does a great job diagnosing what's developing in front of him. He's like a viper and does a good job disguising himself in the traffic until he explodes through and attacks. He's got such strong hands that he'll bring the ball carrier down with 1 hand. In doing so, he's taking the meaning of "just get a hand of him" to a new level. While not something you want all the time, you're trusting in his development to track the outside hip and wrap up properly. He's got such long arms that he can just reach out and slow down a ball carrier, so it may be a different rule for him. Through 2 games, Dungy has 23 total tackles, 18 of those being solos, 3 TFLs, 1 sack, and a tipped pass. This all really feels like the tip of the iceberg for Dungy and think he could develop into a special player at the next level.</p>   <p>Twitter: <strong>@DavonteDungy455</strong></p>
