Don't let Hill's size fool you. He has all the athleticism and skill needed to be a player.<br><br>The first thing I noticed about Hill is his feet. He has extremely quick and detailed footwork. Everything is solid from the feet up. He has fluid hips, and he can run. Really for Kameron it's just a matter of continuing to get bigger and stronger so he can be physical with receivers at the line of scrimmage.<br><br>I'm excited to see what Hill can put on film this fall. <br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1620681"],"_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-67d75bfaf0c02"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700","fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="text-gray-700 has-medium-font-size">It can be hard for a freshman to earn varsity playing time in a program like Pickerington North. McKnight was able to make his way onto the field for Panthers at safety and on special teams as a gunner on the punt team and on the kickoff team.<br><br>I love Geo at the safety position as he has a great feel for playing in space and takes great angles to the ball. He can cover both in space and man v man. He has the speed to run down the ball from sideline to sideline. In the run game he's a willing tackler who will put his shoulder down and run through the ball carrier.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1637493"],"_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-67d75bfaf0c48"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700","fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="text-gray-700 has-medium-font-size">McKinney is an impressive young defensive lineman for the Warriors. At 6'3 255 Mckinney carries his weight well and has the room to continue to add good weight. When watching his film what I was immediately impressed with was his play strength and ability to anchor for a freshman. A lot of times that can be the last thing to come for young defensive linemen. McKinney plays with good pad level and uses his hands and sheds well. Jaden picked up his first D1 offer from Marshall in November.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1636849"],"_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-67d75bfaf0c8d"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700","fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="text-gray-700 has-medium-font-size">Petty lines up at middle linebacker for the Rams. Because of his plus size and length, I project him to play on the outside at the next level. Depending on how he develops physically I like him either as an edge or a defensive end at the next level. Quintin has a great feel for playing in space and mirroring. When it's time to fire he's explosive and downhill. He has the hips and speed to play sideline to sideline. With his length and athleticism along with the physicality he plays with I think he will be a nightmare for teams to block off the edge. Petty has an offer from the University of Toleo.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1637484"],"_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-67e20cd8a105a"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700","fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="text-gray-700 has-medium-font-size">Brown lines up at defensive tackle for the Warriors. I like Brown as a nose tackle. He plays with good pad level. He does a great job of standing up his man and taking on double teams. Simply put Brown is a space eater deluxe. After engages blockers he does a good job of looking for the play and pursing. He's a player who plays to the whistle. As he continues to fill out and get stronger, I think he's a player who will be able to wreak big time havoc in offensive backfields.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1636848"],"_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-67e20cd8a10b1"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700","fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="text-gray-700 has-medium-font-size">Ringer is a young outside linebacker who I thought flashed some top end traits in his freshman season. At 6'3 200 pounds Ringer has the length you're looking for to play on the edge. The first thing I noticed out of his film is his that he has a very twitch and explosive off the snap. His reaction and get-off time are really impressive. He has the bend and athleticism turn and shorten the edge. He has the speed to rundown plays from the backside. Ringer just needs to continue to fill out and get stronger and I think his game will quickly go to another level.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
