Bush is an instinctual playmaker who can punch the ball out to force fumbles and break underneath passes to haul in interceptions. It's really impressive seeing how he attacks the ball.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Bush can also provide great run support- he's quick to react and can fly downhill from the secondary to pursue and take down RBs for little to no gain.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Bush has some impressive tape from last season you should check out below!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/hudl {"name":"acf/hudl","data":{"embed_code":"u003ciframe src='https://www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/17818249/6734f28c4466a34b60a142ac' width='640' height='360' frameborder='0' allowfullscreenu003eu003c/iframeu003e","_embed_code":"field_62daf7995fd8c"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-681142acdadad"} /--> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1026142"],"_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-681142acdae05"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1026142' first='Noah' last='Holt'] is a talented LB/TE out of Elkmont who put together a really impressive junior year.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Holt really made his presence felt on the defensive side of the ball last season- he's a force off the edge who can make some seriously impressive hustle plays behind the line of scrimmage. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Holt is quick off the snap, has violent hands, and does a great job rushing the passer. He has great closing speed and can quickly generate tons of pressure/place hits on the quarterback, leading to some huge defensive stops. It's just as impressive watching him play against the run, he does a great job setting the edge and doesn't let anyone get by him for positive gains. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Holt made some huge plays last fall, ending his junior year with 60 total tackles (33 solo, 9 for loss) and 4 sacks on defense, and 10 receptions for 157 yards and one TD.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Holt has some great tape from last year you can see below:</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/hudl {"name":"acf/hudl","data":{"embed_code":"u003ciframe src='https://www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/14854559/66d0832fcf16e91d5cbd58b6' width='640' height='360' frameborder='0' allowfullscreenu003eu003c/iframeu003e","_embed_code":"field_62daf7995fd8c"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-681142acdae2c"} /--> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["316292"],"_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-681142acdae75"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='316292' first='Caleb' last='Jenkins'] is a talented QB out of Pell City who had a breakout season last fall.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Jenkins is an impressive leader of Pell City's offense who can deliver some high-level throws all over the field. Jenkins has a terrific understanding of what he needs to do with the ball- he's quick to scan the field, has great timing, and fires off passes to open receivers nearly every down.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>I was really impressed by the velocity of some of Jenkins' passes- he can place the ball in some tight windows where only his WR can come down with it. Jenkins also has dual-threat capabilities and can create big plays with his legs by either bailing out of the pocket or taking designed runs upfield for huge gains. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Jenkins put together some seriously impressive film last fall, make sure to check him out:</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/hudl {"name":"acf/hudl","data":{"embed_code":"u003ciframe src='https://www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/15725779/66f5870801778ef4b7d53e68' width='640' height='360' frameborder='0' allowfullscreenu003eu003c/iframeu003e","_embed_code":"field_62daf7995fd8c"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-681142acdae99"} /--> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1312665"],"_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-681142acdaedf"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1312665' first='DJ' last='Wade'] is a talented QB out of Carver who has helped his offense in a ton of big ways over the last few years.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Wade is a gunslinger who can put the ball anywhere on the field. He has a big arm, throws with great accuracy, and is a good decision maker who can push the ball downfield for massive plays.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>I was really impressed by Wade's ability to navigate the pocket and make plays under pressure.

He makes quick cuts and can effortlessly stop on a dime and change his direction to carve up defenses for massive plays.
