PRZ South Dakota 2027 Rankings Countdown: #74-#70

We keep diving in with our rankings countdown in this new 2027 South Dakota class. As we trend downhill into the rankings the sleepers and those prospects under the radar have become more lively on tape.    Ali shows off a good bend from the first reps of his tape and sets a tone as a defensive linemen that plays with the motor I would want in the defensive trenches even with JV tape last year for the Patriots. He shows off well-versed leverage and quickly with his hands, and is more mobile with his agile movement to get outside the box and make a tackle than you might expect. He shows off an good release off the snap and shows off a fluid inside movement as a defensive linemen that plays bigger than his measurables might show off. DL8 in the class for now with an opportunity to grow with upcoming varsity tape into his junior season.   <a href="https://x.com/AliMire14142137">Twitter</a>     A linebacker that I heard the name a solid amount throughout last season as one that has hit a growth spurt too since last update now playing at 6'0 195 pounds which is ideal for a next-level linebacker especially in a sophomore class. Explosive testing numbers from camp with a 9'6 broad jump and a 35 inch standing vertical. One I hope to get more tape on in the very near future to grow his stock as Jace also plays running back for the Quarriers.   <a href="https://x.com/jacebrende">Twitter</a>     Rowdy is one of the first targets out of Lake Preston I recall ever having on our recruiting boards, as a linebacker that intrigued me as a newcomer in this last update. Rowdy might lack the measurables at the moment, but man do I like how sudden this kid shows off to be with his relese into the backfield as one that I feel has a growing football IQ. That IQ steps up as well in pass coverage, as Rowdy has the instincts to know where the ball is going as a LB prospect I would imagine spends some quality time in the film room after games. Our LB8 in the class and one I cannot find on Twitter as of yet.     Another first on this one rankings countdown, is the first I can recall out of Esteline-Hendricks in running back [player_tooltip player_id='1320028' first='Regan' last='Schwartz']. Regan's tape starts off showing off his elusiveness that gets lathered up on the first level as one it doesn't take long to identify his track speed on the gridrion as the way Regan finishes his runs add plenty of seperation. He shows off good vision too around the edges in my eyes despite the light tape available out there. I could certainly see Regan as a great small school target at the next-level. Another small town hidden gem not on Twitter yet.     Ty is an athlete that needs some updated tape to move up his stock-however, this young man shows off great durable running ability that runs with some authority downhill as an east-west back. He appears to be a running back that is quick to identify the gaps with his instincts that I could gauge. Another 2027 prospect that I feel is under the radar that shows off his best tape at running back. No Twitter yet
