He spent time at RB, WR, and KR. It seems that Jeremiah's primary position is RB, so I'll evaluate him a bit there. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A good number of RB highlights from Jeremiah, and a lot of outside zone carries. Generally, Jeremiah had good vision, and he's flashed some solid open-field moves. Against less-athletic defenders, he can do some work. Though, I really want to see better explosiveness from Jeremiah. I like players that run with patience, but Jeremiah teeters on timid and indecisive. Trust your athleticism + vision and RUN! </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/hudl {"name":"acf/hudl","data":{"embed_code":"u003ciframe src='https://www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/18157627/67278e8ebe3351666e0fa746' width='640' height='360' frameborder='0' allowfullscreenu003eu003c/iframeu003e","_embed_code":"field_62daf7995fd8c"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-67e869b17e149"} /--> <!-- 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":"Jayden Crump","_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":"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":"2410","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"Harper Woods","_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-67e869b17e285"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">A handful of good highlights at safety and receiver. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Generally, Jayden is a good athlete capable of being a great varsity starter. These highlights show a very good foundation.<br>Diving into specifics, Jayden is a solid two-way role player. Offensively, he's had a few opportunities in space. Again, I like the athletic foundation, but Jayden needs to be a little smarter in space. The highlight against Pontiac is great- Jayden takes the jet sweep, breaks a tackle, and jukes a man. Though, I want to see a little harder running. <br>Defensively, Jayden has a few INTs / PBUs. Plus, a handful of good tackles. It doesn't seem like Jayden is afriad of contact, but it is apparent that he needs a little more experience before he's a standout player. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/hudl {"name":"acf/hudl","data":{"embed_code":"u003ciframe src='https://www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/19924328/67522822d1085e7329719470' width='640' height='360' frameborder='0' allowfullscreenu003eu003c/iframeu003e","_embed_code":"field_62daf7995fd8c"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-67e869b17e2bf"} /--> <!-- 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":"Torian Johnson","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"2028","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"6'3u0022","_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":"2405","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"Harper Woods","_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-67e869b17e3c3"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Heavily recruited school in the Detroit area - ✔</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Position of value - ✔</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Size - ✔</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Torian is a very raw prospect, but he has the size and situation around him needed to potentially earn D1 offers down the road.

Ideal size for either linebacker or safety- and Cole plays both. However, his tape proves that he's a bit raw. Cole has a handful of good tackles but largely struggles to cover ground. Too often does Cole wait for a runner to come to him. This allows runners to pick up a boatload of extra yards and makes it much easier for them to fall forward while being tackled. Next season, I'd love to see Cole become far more decisive and physical. An offseason full of prospect camps and a great summer would benefit Cole greatly come September. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/hudl {"name":"acf/hudl","data":{"embed_code":"u003ciframe src='https://www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/17940726/676c8e26020a50150c503337' width='640' height='360' frameborder='0' allowfullscreenu003eu003c/iframeu003e","_embed_code":"field_62daf7995fd8c"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-67e869b17e538"} /--> <!-- 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":"Rylee Rucker","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"2028","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"5'7u0022","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_weight":"145","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_weight":"field_65b288425ecf6","player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"2408","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"Southfield","_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-67e869b17e63f"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Love watching a player who can play in all three phases! </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>On offense and special teams, Rylee has a handful of solid highlights. At running back, he's a decent elusive ballcarrier and does a solid job of running through his hole and picking up good yardage. On special teams, Rylee broke a few good returns, further showcasing his speed. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Though, I think Rylee's best highlights come from the defensive side of the ball. As an off-ball linebacker, Rylee isn't afraid to play fast and physical. He has a few great highlights stopping the outside run- Rylee tracks the hip, wraps, and drives the ballcarrier backward. Textbook. Plus, he has the speed necessary to be a very effective blitzer.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Rylee was a freshman last season. Still a ton of time to develop, and I fully expect him to be a college prospect in a few year's time. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/hudl {"name":"acf/hudl","data":{"embed_code":"u003ciframe src='https://www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/24211388/672c0cb9eb1e8565d4c38e24' width='640' height='360' frameborder='0' allowfullscreenu003eu003c/iframeu003e","_embed_code":"field_62daf7995fd8c"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-67e869b17e675"} /-->

Every single one of these players could be future college prospects. A ton of young talent here, in addition to two class of 2026 prospects who could have a breakout senior season.
