The junior to be splits carries with 2025 star [player_tooltip player_id='1232336' first='Sage' last='Davis'] and both backs accumulated over 800 yards rushing behind the Bobcats outstanding offensive line. Johnson is a good north/south type of runner with tremendous vision and patience to follow his blockers. Only playing in 7 games last year, between him, Davis and quarterback [player_tooltip player_id='853820' first='Calum' last='O'Shea'] the Bobcats offense will be a nightmare to stop.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/JaydenD_Johnson/status/1729655878989619499","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/JaydenD_Johnson/status/1729655878989619499 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- 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":"[player_tooltip player_id='1297530' first='Chase' last='Geter']","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"2026","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"6'1u0022","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_weight":"185","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_weight":"field_65b288425ecf6","player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"2495","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"Stonebridge","_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":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-665f378330107"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Defensive back [player_tooltip player_id='1297530' first='Chase' last='Geter'] was previously graded high when we last did the rankings and his sophomore year did not slow his hype down at all. Geter had 3 interceptions to go along with 10 pass breakups, you can see why now he has FCS level offers nearly every week. His ball skills and vision are off the chart, really doesn't make much sense for any schools to throw in his direction for the next two seasons. With his most recent offer coming from the East Carolina Pirates, Geter should have close to 15 offers before week 1.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/ChaseGeter/status/1797352444260761894","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/ChaseGeter/status/1797352444260761894 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- 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":"[player_tooltip player_id='1295530' first='Marcus' last='Herndon']","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"2026","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"6'3u0022","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_weight":"295","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_weight":"field_65b288425ecf6","player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"2405","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"VA Academy","_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":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-665f3783301bc"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">The big man that could be protecting [player_tooltip player_id='1310391' first='Bryan' last='Resto'] blindside is [player_tooltip player_id='1295530' first='Marcus' last='Herndon'] for Virginia Academy. He is 6'3 and just shy of 300 lbs. (295) and could move really well for his size. He is versatile enough to play center, guard or tackle it will be interesting to see where Coach Woods lines him up next fall, he is talented enough to play any position on their line. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/TrenchesBear70/status/1742014756569973124","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/TrenchesBear70/status/1742014756569973124 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1106154"],"_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-665f37833020f"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">I said it before I am anxious to see the development of Miska under center for the South County Stallions.

Loveless is a bull right off the snap he gets his pad level down and can beat you with a plethora of pass rushing moves. Incredibly stout against the run he is a matchup problem for offensive lineman especially when you have worry about [player_tooltip player_id='801105' first='Cameron' last='Binkowski'] on the outside. The two combined for nearly 40 sacks last fall and are set for even higher numbers as the Bobcats march towards a Class 6 state title. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>This kid is a division 1 football player, regardless of who he plays with you can see it on his tape below. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/HaydenLoveles26/status/1732054828921028915","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/HaydenLoveles26/status/1732054828921028915 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
