<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Part Two of our stars of tomorrow:</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["891001"],"_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":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-665281dbd75ca"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Gomez-Ricks has had a really good couple of years for Mountain View where he came on as a freshman and then was a major contributor as a sophomore. A back that is really well built with a strong lower half and ability to run through contact. Has shown the better speed during the offseason after running track but what separates him amongst many of his peers is his elite vision. Gomez-Ricks always seems to find the gap or hole in the defense while showing great patience then explosion. He runs down hill and is not afraid to square up defenders. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1089162"],"_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":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-665281dbd7628"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Jensen is a gunslinger in ever sense of the word. He really has the ability to spread the football all over the field. Shows great timing and touch with tight mechanics that allow him to really show off an impressive down field passing ability. A plus athlete that can use his legs to get him out of trouble but has no problem trying to fit footballs in tight windows. He shows good pocket movement skills and stands tall in the face of pressure. He is going to have a really good season for Burley. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["740604"],"_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":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-665281dbd766b"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Barrus is a really good defensive lineman that plays for powerhouse Sugar-Salem. His ability to create knockback at the line of scrimmage is as impressive on film as we have seen. He shows a high motor with his ability to give relentless pursuit of the football. Shows really good hand placement that allows him to create separation at the point of attack. He will be a name to watch this season for sure. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["401587"],"_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":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-665281dbd76ab"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Hudson is one of the true athletes that can really play either side of the football at the next level. He can be a devastating defensive lineman with his ability to really get off the football with a lightning quick first step or could line up a true weapon at tight end. He has a good frame that he will only grow into as he matures and shows the ability to really bend which a plus for both positions that he plays for Jerome. He has soft hands for a tight end and then strong hands when it comes to playing defensive end. He is going to be a monster this season and should be on college radars.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
