He's a fast, twitchy athlete that can race through the middle of the defense or get to the edge on perimeter runs. He flashes versatility as an effective coverage defender from his DB/Nickel spot. Allen's speed, athleticism, and playmaking ability should continue to generate D-I offers for him (current offers: Utah St., Army, Eastern Washington).</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/KevinAllen3_OtG/status/1700968352229785923","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/KevinAllen3_OtG/status/1700968352229785923 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["595822"],"_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":"","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6513fc4adbed5"} /--> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Autry has been productive, explosive, and efficient out of the backfield for Hoover totaling just under 900 yards (178 y/g) and 12 TDs on 94 carries (9.5 y/c).&nbsp; He's a fluid, natural athlete that can elude and outrun defenders with track-level speed and agility.

He's a crafty ball-carrier with a bruiser's mentality between the tackles that can find the lanes at the LOS and make defenders miss in tight areas. He's a physical finisher that picks up yards after contact and violently lowers his shoulder into defenders at the second/third levels.

He's a low, compact back that can hit the hole hard at the LOS and attacks second/third level defenders downhill. He's flashed receiving skills out of the slot and can fight through contact in goal-line situations. Injury limited him to just defense in Mount Miguel's most recent win over RBV, posting 6 tackles, 2 PBUs and a FF.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/davianmcgowan6/status/1703563097032794123","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/davianmcgowan6/status/1703563097032794123 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- 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":"Dominic Silva ","_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":"5'10u0022","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"2408","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"Valhalla","_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":"","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6514cfd763ca1"} /--> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Silva posted 30/304/7 TDs and 19/254/3 TDs in consecutive games for Valhalla this month. He's a hard-nose runner that can bounce off contact and turn broken plays into positive yards.
