PRZWV Showcase Top Performers Linebackers

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The linebackers on hand for the West Virginia Showcase were some of the top ranked kids in the state. They certainly did not disappoint and Nicholas County rising senior [player_tooltip player_id='1139399' first='Devin' last='Nash'] earned MVP Honors. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">MVP: [player_tooltip player_id='1139399' first='Devin' last='Nash'] Class of 2026</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1139399"],"_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-677fe17932ffa"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">As I thought he might Nicholas County rising senior [player_tooltip player_id='1139399' first='Devin' last='Nash'] was the star of the linebacking crew on hand. While he had good testing numbers, his performance during the individual drills and 1vs1 that had everyone's attention. He was the leader amongst this group and you could see his impressive hip and foot work below. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Nash looks like a kid who has been playing this game for a long time, his technique is spot along with his footwork. Expect many division 2 schools in state to come after Nash hard this off-season, he is a top notch recruit.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/DevinNash267082/status/1875964264743362856","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/DevinNash267082/status/1875964264743362856 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Top Performers:</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1158298"],"_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-677fe17933075"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">The Coaches on hand and I were very close to giving Fairmont Senior [player_tooltip player_id='1158298' first='Hunter' last='Bigelow'] MVP honors, but we settled on a top performer. This dude is a stud that would make a number of Division 2 schools happy if he committed. Displaying good footwork and hip movement in the individual drills, Bigelow showed up as walk in registration and balled out. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Many times during the 1vs1s I had to do a double take as I am stunned he has not committed yet. Like his younger brother Hunter comes from family of talented football players, his future is very bright. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["951269"],"_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-677fe179330c4"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Roberson is another class of 2028 member who I expect you will be hearing more from out of West Virginia. Earning a top performer spot with solid testing numbers and good work in the 1vs1, Roberson is already 6'0 and 175 lbs.. The young man had himself a nice day watch how he runs with standout [player_tooltip player_id='864596' first='Jaden' last='Hatfield'] below. Roberson is a competitor you should expect to see more of that for the next three years out of him.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/ColtonRoberson4/status/1875968075440525627","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/ColtonRoberson4/status/1875968075440525627 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1595525"],"_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-677fe17933123"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">George Washington High School has to be excited about [player_tooltip player_id='1595525' first='Jericho' last='Henry'], he was a beast this past weekend. A 4.0 student Henry showed his high football IQ during the individual drills, the young man looks ready to make an impact. The way he breaks on the football I wonder if he may be better off at safety? That is not to knock his play at linebacker as he is going to be good their too. I just couldn't help but notice how fluid his footwork is and plus he is physical. Regardless the young man can play and will have a major impact next fall. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1311026"],"_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-677fe1793316e"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">I liked what I saw out of King before the showcase and he proved me right by earning a Top Performer slot. Morgantown's [player_tooltip player_id='1595854' first='Brooks' last='King'] was another one ready to go from the start, he competed his tail off. Solid testing numbers, but he was strong during the 1vs1s and individual drills. Impressive recovery speed and hip movement, King made his presence known in Bridgeport.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/BrooksKMotown/status/1875998000306352140","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/BrooksKMotown/status/1875998000306352140 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
