<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>When it comes to college recruiting, height is absolutely something that they look at.

Many of Cameron's highlights showcase great improvisation from outside the pocket. Sometimes, he'll tuck and run, which is widely effective because of Cameron's speed. Most of the time, Cameron is still looking to throw the football. I like how Cameron's eyes remain downfield, and he has a handful of solid throws on the run. I can't wait to see what this season holds for Cameron- super fun player to watch! </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["547391"],"_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-686429a14c130"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Likely the most talked about undersized player.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>De'Mari has been taking significant Varsity snaps since his freshman season. As a matter of fact, he's been excelling on Varsity since his freshman season. He's extremely hard to tackle, and not only because of his size. De'Mari also sports excellent contact balance and agility- able to consistently gain good yardage even against the best run defenses. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Already having won one State Championship, De'Mari is looking for his second ring in three high school seasons! </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1551629"],"_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-686429a14c17b"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">I'll keep on pounding the table for Zeke. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>It's so incredibly difficult to stand out as a receiver. I beleive Zeke has the highlight tape to brreak the mold, even if he is undersized. What I'm most impressed with is Zeke's hard running in the open field. He does his job to get open, then does everything in his power to earn as many extra yards as possible. Laying a shoulder down, sidestepping a defender, whatever he can do, he will do. I'm hoping for an even better Junior season, and I'm hoping for college attention next Spring. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1667539"],"_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-686429a14c1c0"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Malik is an extremely impressive defensive end from Groves. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>I am afraid he's an inch or two too short for a lot of schools, but he still has the skill to one day play phenomenal college ball. Malik's getoff and bend are eye-popping. There were a few instances this offseason where Malik made D1-offered offensive linemen look silly. Simply too fast for some highly-touted dudes. I can't wait to see what Malik can do this season! Hoping for awesome pass rush highlights, plus physical &amp; smart run stops. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1525577"],"_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-686429a14c206"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">A spectacular return specialist. What a way to stand out! </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>I say it a lot, and it's true; height matters a whole lot for most D2/D1 colleges. It's true that Jeremiah would need to prove himself a bit more at WR or DB because of his height, but as a return specialist, I'd be shocked if height was a big factor. Jeremiah sports plus speed, vision, and elusiveness. He's a rare game-changer in the return game, and someome I imagine most teams aren't going to want to kick to.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>His offensive tape showcases a similar skill set. At slot and RB, Jeremiah sports great explosiveness, speed, and far above average vision. I love how decisive Jeremiah is. Absolutely could be a great college prospect. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->

When it comes to college recruiting, height is absolutely something that they look at. The reality is that taller players in most sports earn the benefit of the doubt way more than shorter players. Well, here I've got five prospects who look to defy the odds. Although they're undersized, they can play!
