<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>We have some studs in this state who you need to get your eyes on. This spring, they have been showing they are ready to get back in their groove. Let's check it out. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Madaylan McKenzie </strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>McKenzie is one of the best prospects in the class of 2027. He is a player who is known to be aggressive when it comes to attacking running plays. He is already picking up division one offers. McKenzie is one of the linebackers who can also cover. We think that he is going to start seeing more power four offers coming his way.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1241251' first='Chase' last='Craft']</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>We like Craft a lot. He has been holding it down for his varsity squad since his freshman season. He is an explosive player who loves to get around and make plays. Craft is a guy who we think is going to be a defensive back or wide receiver on the next level. He is a real stud.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='453100' first='Chris' last='Willis']</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Willis has been impressing us since his freshman season. He is a player from Hampton who also excels on the basketball court. This young man is very explosive. He could be a wide receiver or defensive back on the next level. He has the ability to be an efficient route runner. Willis also has the hips to be a nice cornerback. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1237316' first='Connor' last='Pittman'] </strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Pittman is a defensive back from Magee who has been catching our attention for a long time. He is going to be a player to know in this class for a long time. Pittman is a very solid defensive back who plays with a lot of confidence. He hardly ever makes mistakes on the football field.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->

We have some studs in this state who you need to get your eyes on. This spring, they have been showing they are ready to get back in their groove. Let's check it out.
