Alabama’s Middle School Home Grown

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>One of the best things to have in your state is pure home-grown talent that is born, raised and thrives. In the state of Alabama, there are a lot of home-grown talents that know exactly how to play the game from an early age all th way up. Let's take a look at some of what we are speaking about!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1688512"],"_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-69ab1c6e5f38d"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">When you look at one of the most important positions on the gridiron, it's defensive line. Games are often won and lost in the trenches, and this is where future stud player [player_tooltip player_id='1688512' first='Brantley' last='Fiore'] comes in. He is currently developing but is developing into a really nice player. He has been a strong player on defense in his middle school years, and I expect him to be a really, really good player for years ahead.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1688526"],"_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-69ab1c6e5f400"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1688526' first='Eli' last='Hamm'] is an ultra-talented running back in the 2030 class out Elkmont in Alabama. Hamm has great vision and natural running style to be able and make important runs. He has the speed, the agility and can give some physicality to you. He is a running back that can break a game wide open on any carry he gets. He is a go-to type of player and someone you obviously want to get the ball to as much as you possibly can. He is one to really watch for. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1685961"],"_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-69ab1c6e5f451"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1685961' first='Landon' last='Donnor'] is one of the best of the best at the edge position.
