He has been working hard this off-season, and you can expect him to be one of the top prospects in his class. He displays good ball skills and sticks to his opposition. Enlow showcases good fluidity in his backpedal and transitions, effectively staying in his opponent's hip pocket off breaks. He also plays over the top well, timing the catch point accurately and forcing multiple PBUs. Moore is a prospect to add to the recruiting board. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Note – 3.1 GPA</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/to1ree/status/1928203774134198695","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/to1ree/status/1928203774134198695 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1606344"],"_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-685621462e33d"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1606344' first='Mason' last='Brooks Belcher'] is a prospect to watch throughout 2025.
