New Addition Athletes on Verge of College Offers

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>We've added well over 100 prospects to the 2025 rankings. Out of those New Additions, there are several who're on the verge of their first (or more) college offers. This summer has been a hectic recruiting frenzy, and prospects will begin committing soon. When those commitments start rolling in, more offers will roll in as well. Here are six New Additions that are poised for college offers soon!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1290705"],"_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-668427cdad8ef"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Kolton falls into the same category as TJ, evaluated above. Kolton shows good route running and hands, but overall doesn't have that second gear needed to be a heavily recruited prospect. Kolton's film shows impressive vision and north-south running. I don't see amazing athleticism on tape, but his Athletic.net tells a slightly different story. According to Athletic.net, Kolton ran an 11.27 100M dash in May. That translates to a 4.7s 40-yard dash, and that's solid for a 6'1" receiver. For now, Kolton holds strong at #275 and I believe he can receive offers after next season. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1290536"],"_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-668427cdad953"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Jayden could be a bit of a sleeper in these rankings. He's the starting Quarterback and Safety at Leslie, and it's safe to day he's the team MVP. On offense, he's a solid small-school QB who honestly doesn't project to the college level. At safety, Jayden has a lot of positive traits. First off, Jayden reacts quickly to the outside run and occasional screen pass. He explodes toward the ballcarrier and is one of the better run-stopping DBs. As for pass defense, Jayden has a few solid interceptions off of bad throws from the opposing QB. <br>I really like Jayden's upside. I think he could be a good college prospect, but I don't have enough information to paint a full picture. I'm really looking forward to Jayden's senior season and I'd love to see him receive offers. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1290613"],"_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-668427cdad9ba"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Nick is primarily a basketball player, but I think he has what it takes to be a good safety prospect. There's some varied safety tape to be watched here. The first thing that stands out to me is Nick's hard-hitting nature. During several inside runs, Nick punishes the opposing running back. All in all, Nick is a great run defender. He also has quite a few man coverage reps. Nick has the footwork and twitchiness to hang onto his man and eventually convert a PBU. Love the potential, but again, he's a basketball guy. <br>Regardless, I'm looking forward to seeing what Nick is able to do during his senior season! </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1316920"],"_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-668427cdada1a"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Eugene currently holds an offer from Adrian, and it's easy to see why. Although he's 5'7", Eugene's primary position is off-ball linebacker. That said, I don't love his ceiling, but his floor is as high as any. <a href="https://www.hudl.com/video/3/16156386/65360c0b19af4c096844b61e">Turn on the tape. </a>Eugene is very reactive, fearless, and posted several TFLs last season. Especially against the inside run, Eugene can read, scrape, and attack the ballcarrier. It's a shame that he isn't taller because he'd be a great linebacker prospect if he was 6'3". I know that Eugene also plays offense, and I'd expect a higher ceiling in that area. I'm looking forward to seeing what Eugene does next season, because it's obvious that Eugene is a talented player. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1290703"],"_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-668427cdada83"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">That's right- another prospect from Detroit MLK. David has been on my radar for a while but has generally fallen short when it comes to college-level athleticism. His tape shows several instances of decent man coverage and overall defense. He can move, stick with his receiver, and change direction decently well. I know that David knows how to play DB- it's just the athletic traits. If David can prove that he's taken a step up with his athleticism, he will be a good college prospect. For now, he's a NAIA guy in my book. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1298692"],"_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-668427cdadb59"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Honestly, I'm expecting David to move up in the next update. Last season, he was a great gadget player for a super-talented West Catholic team. From beginning to end, David's tape shows great effort and physicality. As a running back, David runs north-south and is oftentimes able to shed a tackle or two. As a linebacker, David aggressively sheds blocks and stops the ballcarrier in his tracks. <br>Moving forward, I need to see a little more twitchiness and overall athleticism. When running, David looks a bit stiff. At linebacker, he sometimes loses a step while reading the play. He has all the tools to be a good college prospect, he's just got to go get it. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
