Gabriel is a very strong interior OL prospect who doesn't get pushed back in pass protection against interior defensive linemen. Gabriel also shows the ability to get out in space in the run game and be physical against 2nd-level defenders. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1254551"],"_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-66b82318c2a9e"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Montgomery was an important piece of a Crest Chargers offense that put up a lot of points and made it to the 4th Round of the State Playoffs. This season he joins a talented offensive line unit at Marvin Ridge. Montgomery is a talented Center who could also play some Guard at the college level. Currently Montgomery has offers from Lenoir-Rhyne and Fayetteville State, and should soon see more offers from in-state schools come his way, in my opinion. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1303797"],"_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-66b82318c2ae0"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">The talented tackle for the defending state champion Warriors recently committed to play college football at Yale University, reflective of his intelligence and dedication in the classroom. However, before heading off to the Ivy League, Jimmy is an important player as he is the only returning starter up front on the offensive line this season. As the Warriors' right tackle last season, Jimmy was a powerful run blocker who showed good athleticism staying in front of pass rushers. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1248876"],"_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-66b82318c2b1e"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Seshaun recently received an offer from Texas College (NAIA), but I have long thought Seshaun should have more college recruiting interest. I love the fact that he currently plays tackle - depending on the division of football he plays at the next level, I think his physicality can allow him to play guard or tackle on the next level. I think Seshaun is athletic enough to play in space as a more agile guard if necessary. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1360493"],"_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-66b82318c2b66"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Conor is part of a very good Charlotte Catholic offensive line that wants to come out and lean on people in the running game as a part of their Wing-T offensive scheme. Conor has experience playing both tackle and center, linemen that can snap are always an added bonus with additional position experience. Conor has a number of Division 3 offers including Catholic University, Ithaca, and Carleton College.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1357123"],"_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-66b82318c2ba3"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">When you look at TJ, his size alone excites you about his upside, which I'm sure college coaches love. With offers from Rochester, Hampden-Sydney, and a PWO from Bucknell in the last 2 months, people are going to be interested to see how his senior season starts for the Knights. At his size, TJ looks to be a left tackle prospect for most schools. I will personally be interested to see his first 4 game highlights for the first part of the season, as I think he can be a player who sees a major swoon in his recruiting with a strong start to the season. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1360497"],"_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-66b82318c2bdf"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Kilan recently picked up his offer from Concord University, and I'm surprised that he hasn't had more recruiting interest at this point. For his size, Kilan moves pretty well to stay in front of defensive ends in pass protection as a tackle. His highlights also show that he can be a road-grader in the run game, so hopefully more colleges will take notice of his talent because I honestly think he is a little under-recruited at the moment. Kilan was an All-Conference player last season, and I think he can definitely duplicate that recognition again this season. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1227169"],"_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-66b82318c2c1d"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Jonathan showed a huge jump in the rankings, and deservedly so as he committed to play college football at East Carolina University. Jonathan had some other Division 1 offers to choose from as well. He proclaims himself as the #1 center in the state on his Twitter - you definitely have to love that confidence from him. I think Jonathan does an excellent job of snapping and coming off the football at the same time. Typically you see centers a little smaller, but that height is a definite plus and could help lead Jonathan to be an early contributor to the Pirates on the next level. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
