He brings some of the most fluid get off hands as a run stuffer the state of South Dakota has to offer. He also has gotten smoother in his junior season with his pursuit angles after getting off blocks as Rocky has tapped into his upside from a year ago. He is grades out as one of a couple trench monsters from the Kernels that grade out as a D1 grade out of this 2027 class as the prospects sitting around Rocky have just gotten their D1 offers recently too, which is something to pay attention to.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><a href="https://x.com/rockyclark123">TWITTER</a></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1617836"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":["override_image"],"_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":2047560,"_player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":"field_62f141137ead9","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-6914fdd70ce33"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">I have heard for a few college coaches that Trey is one offensive linemen they are fired up to recruit out of this 2027 class. The 6'3 now 270 pounder from Tea Area wins a lot of reps with his position angle, strength, and strong pad-level that has really gotten more consistent in his junior season. Another area that has grown from a year ago is his consistency in pass-protection and how well his hands have grown in thier alignment. He looks to me like a offensive linemen on the rise baed off the tape I have grasped from this season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><a href="https://x.com/KrellTrey">TWITTER</a></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1625451"],"_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-6914fdd70ce82"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">If you like a offensive guard that can pull-block and respond with authority at the point of attack on the second level, meet [player_tooltip player_id='1625451' first='Evan' last='Haak'] of Alcester-Hudson. He excelled on both sides of the trenches for the Cubs and really progressed as a pass-rusher with his moves off the edge. The balance you see with those blue-collar hands you see on both sides of the ball show off all the physicality you want to see at the 9-man level. He is a small school prospect on the rise on our 2027 South Dakota board for sure.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><a href="https://x.com/Evan_Haak24">TWITTER</a></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1275173"],"_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-6914fdd70cecc"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">It's should be pretty evident by the end of his junior season, that Mack is one of my favorite small-school running backs not just in South Dakota but the entire Dakotas. The 5'10 210 pounder from Mobridge-Pollock, has the athleticism and durability you want to have in your backfield and is one of those running backs that will wear the defense down the more carries he gets for the Tigers. I have seen it at muliple camps last summer, that Mack does the small details the right way and with efficency. He's one of the best skill position prospects in this 2027 class from North Central South Dakota.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><a href="https://x.com/Mack_Saxon">TWITTER</a></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1320849"],"_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-6914fdd70cf11"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Charlie is going to be one of our callups from the watchlist onto the rankings certainly due to his junior tape he put for Dell Rapids. What pops out from the first look, is his agile first step which shows off the good instincts college coaches are looking for at the next-level. He also has grown in his junior season with higher violence with his punch as that first play on tape says it all, as Charlie gets his man downhill with great penetration at the point of attack. Speaking of downhll, you will want to watch his second play on tape as he barrels into the second level as a pull-blocker that you don't want to meet when he is on the move. Charlie surely grades out as a Saturday prospect in my eyes.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
