Same Players, New Places

High School football looks more like NBA free agency with the way they are allowed freedom of movement. Although, I'm all for players putting themselves in better situations to better their careers and bring about better opportunities.    As a result, here the player in the state, have either transferred to new schools from within the state or transferred from out of state.      Singh comes to Jersey by way of Texas. When watching this young man's film it's almost too good to be true. A player of that size at  6'2 180 pounds has the footspeed and movement ability to be elite at wide receiver/   Singh has a track background where he was a standout track star in Texas. And it's evident when he has the ball in his hands he has impressive,  long speed in addition to solid agility.    He not only is impressive as a mover but he's good as a wide receiver also. He runs solid routes and has alignment versatility. Can run the majority of the tree and has solid hips for a receiver of 6'2. Also, he can win in a variety of ways from precise router running to 50/50 contested situations.    Prabhdeep will be one of the players I will make it my business to watch in person this upcoming season.    <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/PrabSinghATH/status/1678592932410998784 </div></figure>      Rodriguez is another player with the size-speed combination. He is more of a physical player than a speed finesse player.    He plays a physical brand of wide receiver and most of his work is done after the catch and at the catchpoint. He's a reported 6'2 195 pounds and trying to bring him down or fight with him at the catch point is a task due to his strong hands.     He can win downfield and knows how to use his frame to win in contested catch situations.    In addition, he also plays defensive back, where he shows solid coverage ability. His standout trait is his ability to be physical and be an asset in the run defense game.    Rodriguez will go from Hasbrouck Heights to Somerville, in order to boost his visibility and notoriety.     <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/Jrodriguez_1k/status/1586791051838488576 </div></figure>    The Hun School gets aggressive on the recruiting trail. This time getting unknown lineman [player_tooltip player_id='284127' first='Greg' last='Thomas II'] who has quite the journey going from PA, Holy Cross Prep, and now the Hun School. In addition to reclassifying himself in the class of 2027.    Greg will have time to develop his 6'4 270 pound frame and develop his skills. Greg not only has the size, but he's explosiveness, and nimble feet to play on both sides of the line. Would to see him hone in on the interior defensive line, but he also looks good at offensive tackle and has been training at center.    In any event, Greg is a lineman who will blow on the recruiting trails these next couple of months when he gets some Varsity film.     The Hun School has been cornering the market on big, physical, athletic linemen and Bachelder is the cream of the crop. Bachelder comes to New Jersey through Massachusetts following fellow teammate and Masschuttes native  [player_tooltip player_id='384357' first='Miles' last='Oneill'].    Bachleder is 6'7 295 pounds with a solid work ethic. He has many workout videos of him doing various sports showing off his athletic arsenal.   He translates that onto the field. Has good balance and athleticism and has a solid knee bend. Is excellent in pass protection and has solid feet and is working on improving his punch timing and using his hands better.    Bachelder's recruitment will begin to heat up during the season. At the moment he has offers from Army, Stony Brook, Richmond, Maryland, Western Michigan, William and Mary, Monmouth, and the University Of New Hampshire.
