He is certainly one of the top talents in NC and is a player who changes the outcome of a game because he is that much of a playmaker. Harris is one to know now and keep a close eye on because he is going to be a very special player in the 2030 class in the state of North Carolina. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1715376"],"_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-6876bb497fdbf"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">A go getter, a playmaker, a game changer, a complete baller on the gridiron is none other than [player_tooltip player_id='1715376' first='Jarrion' last='Orr']. Orr is such a difference maker, and he is an athlete who can honestly be placed anywhere on the gridiron because he can make big plays at any moment in time. He's a stud and is a name on the rise in North Carolina in the 2030 class.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1707874"],"_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-6876bb497fe0e"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1707874' first='Cam' last='Burgess'] is a future star wide-out who's only going to make a major difference at any level he plays. He is a guy who can really high point the football and he create YAC, yards after catch. He is a complete wide out and is a guy who is going to be a star this season. Burgess is the real deal.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1715381"],"_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-6876bb497fe59"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Amare "Nitro" Johnson is the kind of player who has the correct nickname to fit them. Nitro is complete force on the gridiron and can get away with the ball in a hurry. He is a star and as he continues to develop, he will be an even bigger star as the years come along. He is a name to see now. In May this young man clocked in a 5.09 in the 40 for the 7th grade groups. He's a special talent who's super exciting.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1612272"],"_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-6876bb497fea2"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Connelly is a player I really like because of the impact he has on the game. He has the ability to make plays consistently and he has the game IQ to make plays happen at the right moments. He is a tremendous player who's one to watch as the seasons arrive. He's developing into a star and he already is in his class.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->

There is so much talent in the state of the North Carolina and its talent that refuses to go unnoticed based off of the ultra-talented players on display. These kids in the 2030-2034 classes are spectacular and those classes are some of the deepest in the Country.
