<p class="text-gray-700">Buckhout is one of the top passers across the state this year and has had a breakout senior season and should draw plenty of D3+ interest/offers through his senior season leading up to signing day. A very athletic pocket passer, he has a strong arm downfield, shows good velocity over the top and can throw a tight spiral into tight windows and gets the ball out quick. He also shows he can drop it in over the top with proper touch and flashes the ability to throw on the run and make off-platform throws across his body. Overall, a very athletic pocket passer with a strong arm and high IQ, he is looking to be a late steal for a college program. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">The Sandpoint standout is a very physical receiver with good downfield speed, strong hands and is tough to deal with in man coverage. He shows on film he is a high IQ route runner that can find the soft spots and create downfield seperation with a good catch radius and highpoint abilities when making contested catches. He also flashes the ideal overall speed for his size, gets in and out of his breaks quickly and is a physical runner with the ball in his hands that can bounce off smaller tacklers and gain yardage after the catch. Yarbrough impacts the game in all three phases and had a big showing in week 7, going for 2 pick 6's , 100+ yards receiving and another score and also handled kicking duties on the night as well. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Van Tassell is currently leading the state in receiving heading into week 8 and has been on a tear since the start of the year. He is a physical and explosive player that can create seperation downfield and has strong hands in traffic while able to get off press coverage and settle in zone before knifing upfield. He shows good body control when making contested catches and tracks well over the top. After the catch, he shows a nice initial burst and short area twitch to make tacklers miss in space and is a natural ball carrier that should see plenty of college interest at the D3+ level come his way this off-season in a quick turn-around before national signing day. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Mikita is one of the better linebackers in the 2027 class across Idaho and is a true blend of both a cover guy and run stopper on the perimeter. He excells at tackling and taking the proper angles in the open field, brings a nice thump at contact when knifing behind the line and brings a good punch at the POA. He is a very high IQ player that can come up and set the edge, get off blocks in space and provide a pass rush off the edge if need with quick hands against bigger tackles and natural bend/first step get-off. In coverage he is fluid in transition and breaks quickly to the bal while able to jump routes and bait quarterbacks into poor throws over the middle or outside the hashes. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Mangum is one of the top dual-threat passers across the state and is another prospect that is having a breakout season so far. He has elite open field speed, a strong initial burst and and can make plays in tight windows with wiggle and short area twitch to make defenders miss. Through the air, he buys time with his legs and keeps his eyes downfield while able to evade pressure and deliver the ball under pressure. Heading into his senior year next fall he will be one of the top returning signal callers and will also be a no-brainer to enter into our rankings in the next update. </p>
