He has helped the Vikings to a 2-1 start. He's a stoutly built back who shows a lot of versatility. He's very quick and a one-cut runner who hits holes quickly as soon as he sees them open up. He has the power to run through tackles and has good contact balance. He's a three-down back who should be getting looks from schools throughout the season.</em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><em>Film: </em></strong><em><a href="https://www.hudl.com/profile/13116530/Anthony-Gassaway">https://www.hudl.com/profile/13116530/Anthony-Gassaway</a></em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><em>Ronnell Dubose, RB- Jefferson High c/o 26</em></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><em>Dubose has burst onto the scene this season. He helped lead Jefferson to victory over Leto, rushing for 171 rushing yards and three touchdowns on 13 carries. Dubose is a terrific prospect who shows patience and has an extremely quick burst when he plants his foot and gets up the field. He has outstanding speed and acceleration. I am very excited to watch his progress throughout this season.</em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><em>Film: </em></strong><em><a href="https://www.hudl.com/profile/19062916/Ronnell-Dubose">https://www.hudl.com/profile/19062916/Ronnell-Dubose</a></em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><em>[player_tooltip player_id='1551179' first='Izaiah' last='Henderson'], WR- South Lake High c/o 25</em></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><em>6'3 170lbs</em></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><em>Henderson is a big-time player and someone I think will end up being one of the better prospects in the Central Florida area. Through the first three weeks, Henderson has registered ten receptions for 200 yards and a touchdown. In a tough loss last week, he still had a solid performance, hauling in seven catches for 125 yards. He's a big receiver with a lot of length and a huge catch radius. He does a very good job on 50-50 balls and has a good ability to track the ball in the air. He shows good speed and route-running ability.</em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><em>Film: </em></strong><em><a href="https://www.hudl.com/profile/18891072/Izaiah-Henderson">https://www.hudl.com/profile/18891072/Izaiah-Henderson</a></em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><em>[player_tooltip player_id='421052' first='Jackson' last='Stecher'], QB- Masters Academy c/o 28</em></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><em>6'1 180lbs&nbsp;&nbsp;</em></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><em>Stecher is a dynamic, young, freshman quarterback prospect for Masters Academy.

Stecher is a smart quarterback who takes what the defense gives him. He is very accurate at all three levels of the field and throws with good touch and anticipation. He has the arm strength to put zip on passes when needed and does a good job stepping up in the pocket and keeping his eyes downfield.</em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><em>Film: </em></strong><em><a href="https://www.hudl.com/profile/19337635/Jackson-Stecher">https://www.hudl.com/profile/19337635/Jackson-Stecher</a></em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
