After a second look over some of his tape, it was clear that Ryan deserves a spot on the list. Although he didn't see varsity time as a freshman, his size and athleticism project him as a prospect to watch. Standing at 6'2" and 215 pounds, Ryan has a strong, sturdy frame with good speed that allows him to cover a good chunk of field and close on the ball quickly. He opened some eyes with a few of his heavy-hitting tackles on tape. His athleticism and explosiveness also translate to the offensive side of the ball, where he flowed through defenses as the freshman team RB. Versatile athlete with several seasons to continue fine-tuning his craft!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/hudl {"name":"acf/hudl","data":{"embed_code":"u003ciframe src='https://www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/19494250/650f06f5b3d2fc0420b9c3e2' width='640' height='360' frameborder='0' allowfullscreenu003eu003c/iframeu003e","_embed_code":"field_62daf7995fd8c"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-66bd38a843196"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1085124"],"_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-66bd38a843235"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">An excellent worker who projects to be among the top OL prospects in his class by the time he's a senior. Hunter's mix of technique and physicality really flash when you watch his tape. You see a young, hungry player who is constantly looking to finish his blocks and playing through the whistle. He possesses great strength in his hands and a strong base to drive defenders out of lanes. His footwork and lateral burst allow him to reach second-level defenders with ease. There's a bit of a logjam on the OL for the Patriots with some high-level prospects in the upperclassmen group, but make no mistake, Hunter should shine when his time comes.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/hudl {"name":"acf/hudl","data":{"embed_code":"u003ciframe src='https://www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/19633356/650cbee290f0580c5cf1044d' width='640' height='360' frameborder='0' allowfullscreenu003eu003c/iframeu003e","_embed_code":"field_62daf7995fd8c"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-66bd38a843279"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["644078"],"_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-66bd38a8432ee"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">An absolute bulldog at linebacker, sophomore [player_tooltip player_id='644078' first='Colton' last='Tucker'] is ready to leave his mark on the gridiron this season. The Spartan's middle linebacker will have a shot to carve out a nice role for himself as the defense's main enforcer in the middle of the field. When watching Tucker's tape, the biggest thing that stands out is his physicality and willingness to try and run through people. He's tough to stop once he gets going downhill and uses his hands effectively to disengage from blocks. Great upside as a coverage linebacker as well, with great sideline-to-sideline quickness and solid instincts. Get ready for home big hits out of Colton in these upcoming years!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/hudl {"name":"acf/hudl","data":{"embed_code":"u003ciframe src='https://www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/19485927/653148be8cde6803cc0f0e9a' width='640' height='360' frameborder='0' allowfullscreenu003eu003c/iframeu003e","_embed_code":"field_62daf7995fd8c"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-66bd38a84332c"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1192595"],"_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-66bd38a84339b"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Bellevue West sophomore [player_tooltip player_id='1192595' first='Grant' last='Jones'] is a name to watch this season as he looks to be a bigger part of the offense. The Thunderbirds have been known for their pass-catchers, and it seems like Jones has what it takes to be next in line. I've had the opportunity to watch Grant at showcases and have been impressed with his ability to create separation with his route running. He also has somewhat of a bigger frame, with room to continue growing, that he uses very well when he needs to beat pressing corners. Strong hands and great concentration through the catch process. I look forward to seeing what Grant's game will look like after three more seasons in the high-flying Bellevue West offense.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1085202"],"_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-66bd38a843414"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Big milestone, as this is the earliest we've ranked a specialist in any class! Sophomore [player_tooltip player_id='1085202' first='Evan' last='Greenfield'] quietly had an excellent kicking season last year for the Norris Titans. Evan knocked down 44/46 PATs and 6/7 field goals with a long of 41 for a total of 62 points. Evan's nearly perfect season showed that he can stay calm and composed during any situation and remain extremely accurate. Although he's listed as a kicker at the moment, I wouldn't be surprised to see his game expand to offense or defense in the upcoming seasons. Great athlete with a massive amount of potential!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/hudl {"name":"acf/hudl","data":{"embed_code":"u003ciframe src='https://www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/19590764/651af41a19a5a0161cd8255e' width='640' height='360' frameborder='0' allowfullscreenu003eu003c/iframeu003e","_embed_code":"field_62daf7995fd8c"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-66bd38a843450"} /--> <!-- wp:separator --> <hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity" /> <!-- /wp:separator --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Make sure to follow <em>@PRZ_OscarG</em> for more news on Nebraska and Iowa HS recruiting.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
