Breakout Skill Players of C/O 2025 Pt.1

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>I'm finished with the QB/RB/WR rankings in the class of 2025. Plus, the full rankings are set to be released in early July. There are countless New Additions to the rankings plus a lot of stock-risers. This article will showcase five of players who we have ranked, who I believe are set up for a breakout senior season. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["603737"],"_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-6671ee1818bfe"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Harper Woods has one of if not the best backfield in the entire state, but I don't think that'll stop [player_tooltip player_id='603737' first='Donald' last='Adams'] from earning more offers. Donald first came on my radar when he rushed for 174 yards against a great South Christian defense in the D4 Championship game. There, he ran with extreme intensity and wouldn't be denied extra yardage once he reached the second level. The foundation he has when it comes to his vision, explosiveness, and receiving ability are also great. I mentioned a while ago that I see Donald as a Division 2 prospect, and if he's put in the work this offseason, he should have no problem breaking out and having a phenomenal senior season for Harper Woods. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["602107"],"_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-6671ee1818c58"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">I firmly believe that [player_tooltip player_id='602107' first='Luke' last='Johnson'] is one of the most underrated players in Michigan right now. Is he a Division 1 prospect? No. Does he have the testing numbers alongside on-field performance for a ton of D2 attention? I think so. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">At our Prep Redzone Combine, Luke ran a 4.72 40, 9.5ft Broad Jump, 4.25 Shuttle, and 7.1 L-Drill. In addition, I like his film quite a bit. Luke explodes out of the backfield and thrives running between the tackles. Once he gets to the second level, he's extremely difficult to bring down. On top of that, he has the speed and lateral quickness to make most defenders miss in the open field. It's especially impressive that he was able to do that in the OAA Red. I really hope that Luke is able to get in front of D2 coaches in the coming month, followed by a phenomenal senior season for Oxford. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1217534"],"_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-6671ee1818cb7"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Carson is a bit of a wildcard in the Class of 2025. I've seen a lot of hype about Carson on Twitter, but I hadn't watched him in person until last Sunday's SVSU Prospect Camp. He looked like the most polished and talented QB at the camp. Everything from his footwork, throwing motion, and accuracy were on-par with a lot of Division 2 prospects that I've watched. I wish I had more to say, but I'm really just waiting for the season at this point. If he has a good season, Carson will earn significant GLIAC attention. If he has an incredible season, that's where we can start talking about MAC opportunities, though I currently view Carson as a GLIAC guy. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1217567"],"_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-6671ee1818cfc"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">I'm a big believer of [player_tooltip player_id='1217567' first='Demarion' last='Johnson']. There's a lot going for him. First off, his height, fitness, and long limbs make him a prototypical deep threat. His tape shows his downfield quickness plus a great ability to earn jump balls while still gaining yards after the catch. I don't have his testing numbers, but I'd expect him to test well. Demarion will be ranked pretty high considering zero offers listed on his Twitter, and I fully expect him to perform very well this Fall. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["602019"],"_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-6671ee1818d3e"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">I remain shocked that Trevor has zero offers. He's a certified star in the extremely difficult Lakes Valley Conference. Last season, he performed very well. Lakeland utilized his above-average athleticism, explosiveness, and great open-field elusiveness to create big plays. In addition, he's had himself a phenomenal 7on7 season with Rising Stars. Turn on the tape and you'll see an explosive football player who can be utilized as a slot receiver or an outside the tackles receiving RB. I'm fully expecting Trevor's best season yet in 2024 and I have little doubt that he'll eventually earn his offers. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
