He displays a quick release due to good acceleration and foot quickness to eat up space quickly. He's a RAC threat due to his ability to change direction, make defenders miss, and get upfield. Prevo is a natural playmaker with very good body control, ball skills, and athletic ability. He displays good mental processing and awareness to leverage corners at the top of the route. He can create separation off his breaks due to his good COD, balance, and burst. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Note - Multi-Position Athlete</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/prevo_pre","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/prevo_pre </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1241685"],"_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-68671ebcf0a04"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1241685' first='Champ' last='Davis'], as I've mentioned before, has a playstyle similar to Deebo Samuel. This is due to his ability to dominate at both running back and wide receiver. He displays a quick release against Man Coverage due to good foot quickness coupled with acceleration and balance, allowing him to eat up space quickly. Following that release, he can quickly create separation over the top, showcasing a remarkable stop-and-go capability that causes defenders to commit. His ability to separate on breaks is due to good change of direction, body control, balance, and burst, providing the quarterback with a window. He has good and strong hands due to good hand-eye coordination, ball tracking, and body control, enabling him to catch the ball from his frame and secure catches in the contest. Davis can adjust mid-route to snag passes behind or too high, high-pointing the football.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Note – 4.3 GPA</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/iamchampdavis/status/1933661935779635329","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/iamchampdavis/status/1933661935779635329 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["401197"],"_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-68671ebcf0a55"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='401197' first='Ke'Ovion' last='Brown'] is a prospect to add to the recruiting board. He can create separation off breaks due to good change of direction, body control, balance, and burst. He has strong hands, good hand-eye coordination, effective ball tracking, and body control. This enables him to catch passes securely from his frame. He can make catches even in contested situations. He also drags his foot along the sideline. He is a Future red-zone threat at the next level. He can adjust mid-route to catch passes thrown behind him or too high, often high-pointing the football. His skills translate well into efficient route running and making yards after the catch. Highly underrated. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Note – 3.7 GPA</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/keovion5/status/1916298443867267464","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/keovion5/status/1916298443867267464 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1155131"],"_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-68671ebcf0ab3"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1155131' first='TJ' last='Hodges'] has transferred to Bryant this off-season. He can exploit openings with a good burst of speed that helps him separate from defenders at the first level. Hodges also demonstrates good foot quickness, agility, and change of direction. This enables him to navigate through gaps effectively and make decisive cuts in the backfield or evade defenders in space. He maintains good contact balance and can withstand contact, using active feet and leg drive to power through tackles. Hodges's remarkable breakaway speed enables him to outrun defenders in the open field. Add him to your recruiting board. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Note – Multi-Sport Athlete</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/TerryHodgesJr1/status/1905019991100920035","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/TerryHodgesJr1/status/1905019991100920035 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1336821"],"_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-68671ebcf0b15"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1336821' first='Jackson' last='Ward'] is a physical running back with good post-snap vision.

Ward possesses a solid multi-cut ability and good burst through the tackles, allowing him to break away from first-level defenders. He showcases good leg drive, contact balance, and lower body power to break tackles and gain additional yardage. He's a prospect to watch throughout 2025.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Note – 3.4 GPA</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/JacksonWard2026/status/1932558810071052637","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/JacksonWard2026/status/1932558810071052637 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
