Diantae does a good job of pushing interior linemen in the running game, fitting them well at the snap, and keeping his feet moving on contact. Diantae doesn't give ground against interior linemen bullrushing him in the passing game as well. Diantae currently has an offer from Bluefield University. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1205415"],"_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-678429a9187e5"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Khavijae was a Queen City Senior Bowl selection and committed to playing college football at Charleston Southern. Khavijae's frame will allow him to play either tackle or guard at the next level. His long arms are an asset in keeping defenders away from getting inside his frame in pass protection. In the running game, Khavijae does a good job at the snap of getting off the ball and into defenders, consistently showing movement in the running game. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1055616"],"_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-678429a918884"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Jacob was a two-time All-Conference selection for Southern Alamance the last two years. At his size, playing center will give him the best chance to play at the next level. Per his Twitter, Jacob recorded 39 pancake blocks, some of those which you can verify on his highlight film. Jacob snaps and steps well at the center position, and shows some nastiness coming off the football in the running game. Jacob also works double-team combo blocks well in the running game with his guards, and can climb next level and cut off linebackers. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["574937"],"_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-678429a918913"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">James has several offers to play college football at the next level, and when you take a look at his highlight film you will see why quickly. James is a mauler who probably fits best at guard at the next level. James is at his best in an angle blocking scheme where he can come off the ball and get into a defensive lineman's chest and simply drive-block him all game long. James can pull and trap on the 1st level of the defense as well. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["965639"],"_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-678429a9189b0"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Capital University, Denison University, and Culver-Stockton College have all offered this talented long snapper. The consistency, speed, and accuracy on the snaps on film I saw from Tristen are impressive. Tristen definitely has a place on the next level for years with his special skill and talent in my honest opinion. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
