He has the frame and size to continue packing on weight and excels with his hand in the dirt while using his athleticism and sudden power to win at the point of attack. He shows a variety of power rush moves when bending the edge and collapses the pocket quickly while able to make plays behind the line and take on blockers to set the edge. He is a very balanced defensive end prospect against the pass and in the run game and a excellent open field tackler with good movement abilities in space that closes quickly. He is a no-brainer FBS/FCS range prospect with a high floor entering the next level. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1183000"],"_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-683945d7a74fc"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">The San Diego product is one of the top pass catchers across the section, and is a twitchy and explosive route runner with the ideal length and frame for either receiver position. He is very fluid in his routes, shows he can create separation downfield and has strong hands in traffic while able to make off-platform catches from various angles. He can play on either side of the field and shows short area quickness and lateral movement after the catch when making defenders miss in space and is a true home-run threat with the ball in his hands. Currently, he holds offers from Colorado State and SDSU. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1000888"],"_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-6837f63c54111"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">One of the top interior pass rushers across the region, the Corona Centennial product is one of the best available defensive tackles in the state of California heading into the summer. He's extremely technically sound with violent hands, does a good job using his leverage to reset the line and plays with a relentless motor and heavy inside strike/quick lock out against the run. He shows he can move anywhere along the defensive front but projects as a inside guy at the next level and is already up to 10 offers from the likes of Cal, ASU, Colorado State, Northern, Arizona, Sac State, among others.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1000928"],"_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-6837f63c54198"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">The Orange high school product is a very fluid and twitchy cover corner that has excellent ball skills, closing speed and length at the position. He breaks quickly to ball carriers in zone coverage and has disciplined eyes in space while showing he can quickly turn and run with fluid hips and transition with recovery speed if needed. He also flashes the ability to help in run support and is another kid that has been flying under the radar heading into the Fall. He is one of the best available defensive backs in the class and is poised for another big season for Orange and should start drawing college interest/potential offers sooner rather than later as we move through the summer and his Senior season. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1288067"],"_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-6837f63c541d8"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Hirou is without a doubt one of the top safety prospects across the state of California and has the ideal length and build for the position in college. He is a rangy third level player that plays with tremendous natural instincts, a quick trigger in run support and is fluid in space while breaking to the ball quickly in man coverage. He shows he can run alleys, taking the proper angles to ball carriers and packs a punch at the point of attack when tackling with range and long speed. Overall, he is a very complete safety prospect that has been flying under the radar and is one of the top defensive players in the strongest league in the country.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
