Since then, the Pittsburg product opened up his recruitment and has seen some schools come in and offer such as SMU and Wake Forest (to no surprise) and now remains one of the top uncommitted kids on the west coast. He put up big time numbers in his senior year for the Pirates, rushing for 1,400 yards and 18 touchdowns and adding another 300 yards receiving. Defensively, he tacked on another 50 tackles from his safety position. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"Palmer Riley","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"2026","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"6'5u0022","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_weight":"235","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_weight":"field_65b288425ecf6","player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"2406","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"Menlo School","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_0_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6770589d0d9f1"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Riley is a high academic prospect that should have most of the Ivy League after him by the time it's all said and done, and has the ideal size and frame for the next level at 6'4" and change and over 230 pounds heading into his final season at the prep level. He recently picked up his first offer from Princeton and should have plenty of other suitors coming his way through this Spring. He ended the year with 40 tackles and 10.5 TFL's against strong competition and showed he is a well polished pass rusher that could also kick inside in college. He is extremely violent and explosive off the ball, shows a strong initial strike and violent shed while able to win with both speed and power at the POA. Riley offers tons of growth potential at the next level and is a very intriguing prospect due to position versatility and upside. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1197563"],"_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-6770589d0da40"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Jones-Drew is already one of the top running back prospects across the state of California in this 2027 class, and put together a very nice sophomore season for the Spartans. He currently holds offers from UCLA, Cal and Utah and should see a slew of others come in this off-season as he gears up for his Junior year. He is an explosive and compact runner that gets behind his pads, shows natural forward lean and leg drive through contact while also flashing vision in tight windows, start/stop abilities and downfield seperation in the clear. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["282710"],"_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-6770589d0db7b"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">One of the most feared pass rushers across the SJS for the last 4 years, Greule recently shut down his recruitment and committed to the University of San Diego after holding offers from both them and Portland State. He has been one of the more disruptive defenders we have seen across Northern California over the past 4 seasons and is a big time steal for the PFL conference. He ended his career with 38 TFL's and 21.5 sacks against some of the best competition in the state and is one of the more technically sound defensive linemen Norcal has to offer in the 2025 class. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"Tyler Chelew","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"2025","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"null","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_weight":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_weight":"field_65b288425ecf6","player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"2411","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"St. Vincent de Paul ","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_0_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6770589d0dae2"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Chelew is a high academic player from the North Bay, and a back to back state champion for the St. Vincent de Paul Mustangs and two-way starter. He has been a two-way player for them for the past two seasons and is a no brainer D3+ prospect that should add immediate value to a program at the next level. He held offers from Case Western Reserve and Claremont Mudd-Scripps before committing to the Stags, and can play either slot receiver or defensive back at the next level. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
