Rising Clark County Linebackers

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Nevada has some talented defensive prospects across all classes. However, I have been impressed with several linebackers' production early on this season. Below, I highlight several specific defenders who have been dominating Nevada offenses early on this fall. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"Zachary Young","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"2024","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"6'2u0022","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"2496","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"Lake Mead Christian Academy ","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_0_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"Zachary Young is one of the best small school defenders in Nevada. Watch for Zachary to add to his list of two offers before his senior season comes to a close. Zachary has shown next level athleticism intercepting the ball in zone coverage and wrapping up ball carriers in space. Coaches notice Zachary's power when stunning offensive linemen and flattening ball carriers in the backfield. Good length, strength, and shed technique highlight Zachary's ability to be a true middle linebacker in college.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_player":["820674"],"_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":"[player_tooltip player_id='820674' first='Saione' last='Inoke'] has been leading Centennial's defense early this fall. Saione has received interest from Ottawa University in Arizona and I would expect more schools surrounding Nevada to reach out before the season ends. Saione has displayed good closing speed and strength tracking down ball carriers on outside runs. Good athleticism and awareness shows picking off balls outside his vicinity in zone coverage. Good instincts in run defense and next level size will have Saione moving up defensive recruiting boards before his junior year is over.","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_player":["989328"],"_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":"I have a feeling [player_tooltip player_id='989328' first='Isaiah' last='Teo'] will be one of the highest defensive risers in the 2025 class. I am shocked to see him receive no social media attention and I would expect Isaiah's regional recruitment to heat up before this season ends. Isaiah shows good instincts, physicality, and tackling ability stuffing opponents' runs behind the line of scrimmage. Good power and quickness gets displayed redirecting and fighting through traffic before knocking ball carriers backwards. Recruiters are sure to notice Isaiah's good size, skillset, and consistent production when moving him up their lists this fall.","_player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_3_player":["817736"],"_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":"James [player_tooltip player_id='817736' first='Keau' last='Hadley'] Jr. Has been a dominant force for Shadow Ridge on both sides of the ball. James showed good strength, toughness, and speed on touchdown runs for Shadow Ridge. Good instincts get displayed in zone coverage and recruiters are sure to notice James' athleticism intercepting the ball. James' power, closing speed, and good tackling ability gets displayed consistently throughout his early season highlights. Look for him to receive more offers in the region before the seaon ends.","_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":"","_player_evaluations_4_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_4_player_details_player_name":"[player_tooltip player_id='1099912' first='Nick' last='Duffy']","_player_evaluations_4_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_4_player_details_graduating_class":"2025","_player_evaluations_4_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_4_player_details_height":"6'0u0022","_player_evaluations_4_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_4_player_details_position":"2496","_player_evaluations_4_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_4_player_details_school":"Faith Lutheran ","_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":"[player_tooltip player_id='1099912' first='Nick' last='Duffy'] is one of the fastest rising juniors in Clark County. Nick has shown an impressive combination of speed, instincts, and athleticism jumping underneath routes for interceptions in coverage. Good size, power, and tackling ability gets displayed knocking different ball carriers back behind the line of scrimmage. Athleticism shown in pass coverage and good football IQ in run defense is hard to miss on Nick's early season highlight tape. Expect coaches inside and out of Nevada to pick up their recruitment of the talented linebacker this fall.","_player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":5,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-650e4c2b9211b"} /-->
