Standing out as a safety, his ability to not only play the run effectively but deliver forceful tackles in the box sets him apart. Cohall's low and explosive playing style, coupled with coverage skills and ball production, solidifies his reputation as a defensive force. As he enters his senior year, his continued growth is anticipated. Despite holding only one offer from LIU, Cohal's hard-hitting prowess is gaining recognition.u003c/spanu003e","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-65908f5460eff"} /--> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/CohallEthan/status/1705711185960501401","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/CohallEthan/status/1705711185960501401 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/CohallEthan/status/1723553178694615467","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/CohallEthan/status/1723553178694615467 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>BEST ON BOTH SIDES OF THE BALL</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["344218"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":["override_image"],"_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":1131244,"_player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":"field_62f141137ead9","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"u003cspan style=u0022font-weight: 400u0022u003eDJ McClary's versatility shines as he claims the title of the best on both sides of the football. Excelling as a linebacker and safety at 6'2 210, he displays aggression, explosiveness, and coverage skills. McClary's additional talent as a wildcat quarterback, characterized by his physical running style, agility, and explosiveness, adds to his overall prowess and his unquestioned commitment to being whatever the Snyder Tigers need for them to win. As a standout defensive prospect in the 2025 class, his trajectory is promising, with the potential for further impact as he adds weight to his already robust frame.

Standing at 5'11” and weighing 160 pounds, Thomas has shown glimpses of his potential with notable plays, particularly a spectacular catch against Red Bank Catholic.

Despite once being recognized as a top 30 national prospect, a lack of exposure at national camps has somewhat dimmed his spotlight. Bethune's versatility allows him to line up both outside and in the slot, excelling in contested catch situations. To further elevate his game, improvement in route running and elusiveness after the catch is crucial. Notably, his proficiency extends to playing cornerback, showcasing solid ball production and the ability to break on the football. Bethune earns the title of the best player you've never heard of, emphasizing his impactful potential on both sides of the ball as a wide receiver and cornerback.u003c/spanu003e","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-65908f5461103"} /--> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/BethuneAl/status/1717194408175480911","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/BethuneAl/status/1717194408175480911 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed -->
