He does a great job of identifying the rushing lanes quickly. Brown is a patient running back who allows the lanes to develop before exploding through the hole. Over the weekend, Brown placed his commitment with Central Missouri.

Rawls is a nightmare for opposing defenders to attempt to cover in the passing game. He does a great job of using his size and athleticism to haul in the pass. Rawls earned scholarship offers from Arkansas State, Georgia State, and Austin Peay over the weekend. He is a prospect to watch out for over the offseason.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1586103' first='Eli' last='Thornton']-Defensive Line-Valley View-6'3” 310-Pounds-2027</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The number of talented players the Blazers continue to produce on the defensive side of the ball is impressive. Thornton has a rare mix of power and quickness which causes plenty of problems for opposing offensive linemen. Thornton has no problem shedding blocks and clogging up rushing lanes. Over the past few weeks, Thornton has had recruiting visits with Vanderbilt and Kentucky. I expect a big season from the Valley View defensive lineman.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1173104' first='Carter' last='Wallace']-Running Back-Valley View-6'0” 204-Pounds-2027</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1173104' first='Carter' last='Wallace'] is a versatile running back for the Blazers. He is a nightmare to bring down in the open field. Wallace has no problem making opposing defenders miss tackles. He is a patient runner who allows blockers to open up rushing lanes. Meanwhile, he is a weapon in the passing game and will make big plays in the passing game. Wallace earned a scholarship from the Missouri Tigers over the weekend.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1516821' first='Mario' last='Brownlee']-Linebacker-Arkadelphia-6'0” 205-Pounds-2027</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The Arkadelphia linebacker has had no problem impressing us at several Prep Redzone Arkansas camps. He has taken those performances and kept the momentum rolling on the gridiron. Brownlee has already earned an offer from the Arkansas Razorbacks. Last weekend, he had the opportunity to take a visit to Fayetteville to check out the new coaching staff. He is a player to watch out for during the offseason. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
