Last year, he served as a good starter against comparatively bad competition. Nathan was able to overpower just about anyone he went against, but it was obvious that he was extremely raw from a fundamental standpoint. This offseason, Nathan has attended countless camps and has undoubtedly improved significantly. I've seen Nathan hold his own against some very good big-school prospects, and It's hard to think he won't be better off from that competition. Heading into the Fall, I expect to see Nathan have much better over fundamentals, including an improved getoff, hands, overall block shedding, and IQ. Nathan has always been a very high-upside player, and I think he's going to show more of that upside this season. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1290456"],"_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-66bd27874acee"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">I've discussed Orion a few times earlier this offseason. There are several reasons why I think Orion is set up for success during his upcoming senior season. For one, colleges will love his 6'4" 220lb size. Secondly, I trust Forest Hills Central to develop its players. Lastly, Orion showed some flashes last season against some good teams. Namely, Orion is a high-IQ player who is way more agile than most at his position. Orion knows how to use his hands, he has a good getoff, wide tackle radius, and can make plays against just about any program in Michigan. He just needs to take a step this season in order to receive the Division 2 GLIAC offers I think he's capable of earning. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["899524"],"_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-66bd27874ad59"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Jacob has been on our radar for quite a while now. Since I first watched Jacob's tape, he's been a very raw offensive line prospect with sensational size. I see this from most super-tall linemen, but Jacob has consistently struggled with agility, balance, and overall fundamentals. There's a lot of plays where it seems Jacob knows that to do, but can't move quick enough, balanced enough, or doesn't have the necessary aggression to finish his block. According to his Twitter, Jacob has gained a whopping 45 pounds since I last updated his H/W. That is a VERY good sign for the coming season. If Jacob is able to have himself a breakout year, he could even earn Division 1 offers. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["899501"],"_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-66bd27874adbb"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Ryder is another one of those fringe D2 prospects who could very well earn himself many more offers this season. Last season, Ryder was an extremely solid tackle for Lapeer. I especially like Ryder's consistency when it comes to finishing his blocks and being an overall physical lineman. Though, a big reason why Ryder doesn't have many GLIAC offers is his footwork. On all pass-blocking reps, Ryder looks very off-balance and overall has very wonky fundamentals. Clean those up, and he'll be a highly-touted late-bloomer prospect. I hope to see those improvements this season! </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["899504"],"_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-66bd27874ae17"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">More eyes will be on Kenowa Hills this upcoming season. Last season, Jeremiah had a great season but was held back by lackluster fundamentals. I really love his size and effort, but his footwork, alongside aggression, needs to take a step forward. Earlier this offseason, Jeremiah received his first and only offer from Hope College. I think that he'd be a great Division 3 football player, though he has amazing D2 upside if he takes a step up this season. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->

The class of 2025 STILL has plenty of potential hidden gems. With size like these guys, your potential is sky-high.
