Harris has some seriously impressive speed and acceleration that pays off massively- he is able to go from 0-100 within an instant and easily outruns/evades defenders as well. Last Friday, Harris was as versatile as he could be against North Gwinnet- he ended the night with a ridiculous stat line of 17 carries for 93 yards and a touchdown, and an additional 5 receptions for 97 yards and a touchdown in the air as well. Harris had some big runs that really made the defense pay and showed off his refined pass catching abilities too as he was able to be a monster after the catch. Watchout the remainder of the year for [player_tooltip player_id='353156' first='Jonathan' last='Harris'], he's a sleeper that's currently playing some really good ball!","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_player":["983120"],"_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":"Canare Hampton has flew under the radar for us but is now going to be getting our eyes- the dominant senior athlete made play after play for Oxford's offense last week. Hampton can play both sides of the ball really well at DB/WR, but after last week he may end up more of a wide receiver as a prospect. Quarterback [player_tooltip player_id='495323' first='Mason' last='Mims'] and Hampton both had massive nights last Friday against McAdory- Hampton provided his quarterback an incredibly reliable target as he was able to total up 9 receptions for 173 yards and 3 touchdowns. Hampton plays with tons of speed, has great size and hands, and is an all around playmaker for Oxford- some of the passes he was able to reel in we're incredibly impressive catches. Since Friday, Hampton has picked up an offer from Jacksonville State, and with how he played in Week 2 it's entirely possible we will continue to see those roll in.","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_player":["983126"],"_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":"[player_tooltip player_id='983126' first='Terrance' last='Gaines'] looks like he is about to have a massive junior season for Mortimer Jordan- he's started off the year in a big way, and is fresh off a monstrous performance in Week 2. Gaines is a highly elusive, quick footed, speedy back- he thrives off his ability to make defenders miss and has some deadly open field speed- once he is free, there's no catching up. Last Friday, Gaines had a huge night- he ended up carrying the ball 28 times for 255 rushing yards and 3 touchdowns. Springville's defense couldn't do anything to stop him- making Gaines the X-Factor of this game, without his work on the ground Mortimer Jordan would've struggled majorly offensively. Keep an eye on Gaines as we head further into the season, as a junior he shines with tons of talent and potential and he's a blast to watch!","_player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_3_player":["983128"],"_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":"[player_tooltip player_id='983128' first='Hunter' last='Hale'] just keeps impressing us with how easy he makes getting into the endzone look. Hale has been a consistently reliable wide receiver for Helena, but is fresh off a huge game against Buckhorn. Last Friday, Hale totaled up 7 receptions for 101 yards and two touchdowns, while also making a huge impact on special teams with his 97 yard punt return for a touchdown as well. Hale is a crafty route runner with really good hands, he can quickly find ways to gain separation to get the ball, and has some decent after the catch ability as well. Hale also is a really reliable special teams player as well, he has terrific field vision and takes the right path to gain maximum yardage. Watch out as we get further into the season, Hale has been on fire recently!","_player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":4,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-64f74df5ea963"} /--> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
