Region IDs: Alabama Gulf Coast New Names, Part II

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Today, we wrap up some new name coverage by diving into the east side of Mobile Bay.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1629686"],"_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-68464f5367c7e"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Marinho is an athletic front-line defender coming off a productive sophomore season for Spanish Fort. Comes in at 6'3 230 with a basketball background, making for an athletic size/speed combo. He has also played some TE on the 7v7 circuit. Marinho is active and possesses quick hands. He does a good job fighting to keep his chest clean, keeping his eye on the ball, and pursuing as a tackler. I think he can shed blocks even better than he is doing now if he brings his feet more at contact. Holds an offer from UNA and is a candidate to add more. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1672869"],"_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-68464f5367cd4"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Wilder is a well-built, sturdy pass rusher who offers a unique blend of size and speed off the edge. He is a ball of momentum downhill, exploding off the line and driving his feet through contact to create vertical push. He flashes some patience when setting the edge and is a big absorber when sealing the edge. To complement his size and straight-line burst, he bends well for his size, given his muscle mass. He is farther along physically than most edge prospects at his age. He holds an offer from UNA, but surely won't be his last. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1466430"],"_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-68464f5367d1c"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Neill is a highly productive LB prospect with both a unique and impressive T/F background. In 2025, he launched the shot put over 45 feet and the javelin over 149 feet. He has several occasions of throwing the discus over 149 feet and finished second in the state in 2024 with a 149' 03'' benchmark. He is an active defender with quick feet, allowing him to react quickly and knife past blockers. At contact, he consistently proves he can drop his pad level and drive the screws of his helmet into traffic. Has a sideline-to-sideline motor. Neill holds an offer from UNA and is vastly underrated given his production and proven athleticism. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1640564"],"_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-68464f5367d62"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Moss was one of the more highly productive players in Alabama last fall, finishing with over 2400 total yards and punching it in 35 times, all while producing on defense as well. Looks the part physically and passes the eye test at 6'1 205. Moss does a little bit of everything on tape. He is elusive as a runner, squeezing the front, waiting for lanes to open, and exhibiting the foot quickness and shiftiness to cut into lanes and attack the available yards. He has the speed to lift off from current level of comp, but will be more of a nickel and dime runner at the next level. Moss produces as a receiver out of the backfield. He is a tough runner who has the balance to snap off contact and continue to move forward. Holds FCS offers. Real fun player. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1283053"],"_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-68470e4f4734c"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Tomlinson is a skinny WR prospect coming off a productive fall and generating some D1 buzz. He might not scare you off the bus, but he is an impressive operator at receiver and has room for physical maturity. He is quick off the line and does a good job of deceiving and creating pause in DBs at the top of the route. For a thinner guy, he plays well through contact, which you can attribute to his body control, hands, and efficiently timed jumps. He is fluid after the catch and can contribute at each level of the field. Might lack P4 juice athletically, but he has some impressive tape and has tacked on D1 offers. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1635178"],"_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-68470e4f473d5"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Nic Hampton is an eye-catcher at TE for Gulf Shores and is one of the more dynamic prospects at that position in the state, if not the most dynamic. He handles normal TE duties adequately and competes as a blocker. However, it's his blend of size and foot quickness that is the most impressive. He has some wiggle in space with the ball in his hand and can dance around contact. Pair that with his obvious mismatch potential down the field, and you have a fun eval and a clear D1 athlete. He has several D1 offers under his belt. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1650166"],"_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-68470e4f4742b"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">It's early and he is still waiting to fully break out, but Steele already holds an offer from Alabama, and it's due to his rare traits. He is a towering 6'6 basketball athlete who is receiving equal buzz on the hardwood. He is an obvious mismatch threat, but did most of his damage after the catch as a freshman. He falls forward at contact and is tough to bring down. Steele has booming potential as he becomes more confident and aware of how good he can be. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
