<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>We added more than 90 prospects to our rankings in Ohio last month for the Class of 2029. In our next article and multi-part series, we break down four new additions and will continue to do so throughout the month of February. These four early risers have a chance to become high-impact players in the fall and beyond.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2058602"],"_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-697a3a2515485"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='2058602' first='Saul' last='Orton'] is a running back for Canal Winchester. Orton has immense potential with his size, sped and frame. Strong, tough and checking in at a bulky 183 pounds, Orton can bounce off tacklers and stay on his feet. He is primarily an in-space runner who can run off tackle, break through contact and maintain balance. Needs to develop some more speed. Keep an eye on his development.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1908673"],"_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-697a3a2515500"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1908673' first='Mitchell' last='Huber'] has the makings of developing into a legitimate prospect. He is a lean, 6-foot-4, 205 pounds, so the time and room to grow and develop is certainly there. Huber is a good run blocker with a quick first step, he does a great job of firing forward to the second level and driving his feet on contact. At OT, he can seal off the corner and create lanes on off-tackle runs. Strong prospect with a high ceiling.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2048660"],"_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-697a3a251556c"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">It's early, but Jake LaBahn earned a spot in our rankings thanks to his quick release, velocity over the middle of the field and accuracy in the intermediate game. LaBahn can make tough completions with defenders in his face, take a hit and get the ball out quickly thanks to his release and throwing mechanics. Needs to grow and develop on the deep ball, but the upside is there.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1979956"],"_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-697a3a25155c0"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1979956' first='Jalen' last='Spraggins'] is a defensive lineman for Westerville Central. The 6-foot-0, 261-pound prospect has the chacne to be a solid run-plugging defensive tackle at the next level. He can eat space, has good first-step quickness and flashes twitch for his size. Spraggins, if left unblocked, can deliver heavy hits to running backs.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->

We added more than 90 prospects to our rankings in Ohio last month for the Class of 2029. In our next article and multi-part series, we break down four new additions and will continue to do so throughout the month of February. These four early risers have a chance to become high-impact players in the fall and beyond.
