Central Texas Skill Players: Offensive Juniors Dominating

<p>As we head into district play, from Waco to San Antonio and everywhere in between, the Central Texas region has brough the heat on offense thus far. Some of the most exciting performances from these offensive units have come from Class of 2027 skill players. With stellar size and speed combos, here are five of the top junior offensive playmakers through Week 4.</p>    <p class="text-gray-700">A big physical back with explosive speed and power, Whisenton is one of the best offensive players in the state. He totes the rock with twitchiness and physicality. Lathan showcases a strong hop cut through the line of scrimmage and combines his 4.5 speed with excellent lower body contact balance to break off long runs. Through just 4 games, Whisenton has already amassed over 600 total yards and 9 touchdowns. If the Panthers want to stay hot coming out of their undefeated start, they will continue to lean on their star tailback down the stretch. Lathan has received offers from powerhouse programs such as Texas, Oregon, and Oklahoma.</p>   <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/LathanWhisento/status/1970169820844110182 </div></figure>     <p class="text-gray-700">One of the most dominant route runners in the entire country so far this season, Moore makes plays at all three levels of the field. He possesses an incredible combination of size, speed, and athleticism. Tre is a QB's dream in the redzone, flashing the ability to high point, adjust, and reel in contested targets. He also boasts stellar all-around speed and the loose hips and polished footwork necessary to constantly make defenders miss. Moore is a matchup nightmare for all Wolves' opponents, and he will be crucial in their path to a state title. He holds a long list of offers from schools such as Michigan, Alabama, and Texas A&M.</p>   <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/Tremoore_1/status/1969768406619423186 </div></figure>     <p class="text-gray-700">An electric two-way player who is almost never off the field, "JJ" is an explosive threat in the Hippos' offense. Fields flashes a great release at the line of scrimmage along with the speed to get to the edge after catching passes over the middle of the field. The dynamic burner also provides immense value in the return game, already housing one this season. In addition to that score, JJ has already totaled over 450 receiving yards, 5 TDs, and a pcik-6 defensively. Expect Fields to be one of the biggest risers on recruiting boards down the stretch, as he adds to offers from schools such as Oklahoma, Texas A&M, and Baylor.</p>   <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/CoachEReinhart/status/1969936725221798230 </div></figure>     <p class="text-gray-700">One of the best Week 4 performances nationwide, Mosley has been magnificent in the deep-passing and return games thus far this season. Alvin boasts a long frame that he uses to extend and high-point deep balls. His body control to reel in contested passes from a plethora of angles has flashed this season. Mosley also showcases great elusiveness and lateral change of direction, accelerating out of his slashing cuts to constantly make defenders miss. After a 307-yard Week 4 performance, Alvin stands at 543 total yards and 9 touchdowns through just three contests. The dynamic pass-catcher has earned offers from schools such as Texas, Florida State, and Syracuse.</p>   <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/AlvinMosley_3/status/1969458147350732923 </div></figure>     <p class="text-gray-700">Another dog that absolutely demolished the opposing defense this week stands in Grady, who resembles high school Derrick Henry out of the backfield. While it may seem premature to add Cam to this list after only one game, his production from that one contest is more than most running backs' from the entire season. In his first game back, Grady totaled 21 carries for an absurd 300 yards and 5 TDs. Even after missing a few games, the Wildcats' workhorse back may break records this season, utilizing his lower body strength, great vision and patience, and powerful cuts. Expect his lone offer of UTSA to be added to in immense fashion this season.</p>
