Tuesday Trenches: Junior Linemen in Indiana

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>We'll take a look each week at junior linemen on both sides of the ball in Indiana. This week, we'll zero-in on five top junior prospects.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1126856"],"_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-671824a7d6540"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Carr is a powerfully-built offensive tackle and a strong run blocker, keeping his feet moving on contact and driving defenders off the ball.  After transferring from McCutcheon to play for head coach Pat Shanley at Lafayette-Jefferson, Carr is a key prospect to watch and his continued development is likely to draw college attention. Carr checked in at the Indy Mega Camp at 6-foot-4, 289 pounds.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block

--> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Schiefer was banged up to start off the season, but he's back in the lineup for the 6A Bulldogs and their high-powered offense.  He displays good hand placement, strike timing, and has a good first step.  The Bulldogs are one of 6A's hottest offenses, scoring over 32 points in each of the past four games.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block

--> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">It didn't take long for the 6-foot-6, 325-pound lineman to make his college choice.  The Wisconsin commit is a mauler in the trenches.  He packs a heavy punch and uses his arm length well, frequently jolting defenders to the ground and neutralizing incoming rushers.</p> <!--

--> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Roncalli has produced its fair share of linemen over the years, and [player_tooltip player_id='1752539' first='Carter' last='Sitzman'] is next in line.  Sitzman is a good run blocker but he's also effective in pass protection.  He works to the second level quickly and is a very good finisher.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block

--> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Jones was originally an offensive lineman but now aligns as a defensive tackle.  He is a 6-foot-8, 325-pound mountain of a man.  His sheer size and frame automatically make him a prospect.  College coaches, though, are concerned about his foot speed and tree-trunk sized ankles on offense.  His move to defense, though, might help his value on that side of the ball.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
