2028 Indiana Rankings: Fast Risers

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>We added a good number of prospects to our rankings in Indiana this month for the Class of 2028. 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":["2127818"],"_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-6990960f35481"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">We are well-aware that [player_tooltip player_id='2127818' first='Antonio' last='Niles'] does not have any film yet, but it is only a matter of time before the 6-foot-6, 260-pound rising junior blows up in the spring. During an in-person visit to Warren Central yesterday, we met Niles and could clearly see he has potential: he is a very lean 260 pounds and has plenty of room to grow. Training with top prospect [player_tooltip player_id='1706244' first='Sean' last='Fox'] daily, Coach Whitaker is excited about his potential and thinks his recruiting will get a huge shot in the arm after the team's spring workouts/college day comes around in April/May.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2116166"],"_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-6990960f354f1"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='2116166' first='Archer' last='Rust'] is a starting quarterback for John Glenn in Walkerton. Rust is not rusty: he has a quick release, strong arm, and throws with good velocity in the short/intermediate game. Ball comes off his hand hot. He can roll out and throw on the move effectively. 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":["2119943"],"_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-6990960f35542"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='2119943' first='Carson' last='Clark'] is a starting receiver for Carmel High School. The 5-foot-8, 144-pound slot receiver is very dynamic in space with the ball in his hands. Clark is slippery after the catch, making defenders miss in space and displaying good top-end juice. With his abilities after the catch, he is a constant threat to score in Carmel's high-powered offense that put up plenty of points last fall.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1851270"],"_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-6990960f35589"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1851270' first='Daniel' last='Laning'] - not to be confused with the Oregon head coach - is a safety for Westfield High School. Laning has great ball skills, he can pick off passes with ease and does a great job of playing center-field from his perch at safety. The 5-foot-9, 165-pound defensive back can be a ballhawk. He can whip his head around, break up passes and time the ball well with his hands. Keep an eye on him during college camps.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
