[player_tooltip player_id='2148198' first='Josiah' last='Bolme'] was a first team all region defensive linemen this past fall for the Bruins. He had 113 tackles along the dline where Coach Crush seems to move him all over the field. He is too strong for most guards/center to handle 1 on 1, and he has a wrestling background too. That makes sense why his hands are so active and how he explodes off the snap, Bolme will debut high later this month. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/mdoc376/status/1995668823718904052?s=20","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/mdoc376/status/1995668823718904052?s=20 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1881028"],"_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-69b0313e81220"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Osai played a lot for John Champe as a sophomore at defensive back where he picked off 3 passes in 2025. Really good footwork and hip movement, he tends to bait the quarterback into making a poor decision. He was second team all district and is trending to a top 150 ranking. Elikem possess skills that will transition well at the next level, expect an all-metro type of year from him next. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2137003"],"_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-69b0313e81297"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='2137002' first='Anthony' last='Spears'] played well for Alexandria City last year and he has been making the rounds with DMV Attack in the off-season 7v7 circuit. He has good size and you can tell by his tape he is a student of the game. Very smart/instinctive football player that will be making his rankings debut in a couple of weeks.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/AnthonySpears57/status/1994868243786535046?s=20","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/AnthonySpears57/status/1994868243786535046?s=20 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2143224"],"_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-69b0313e81305"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">He looks like Lake Braddock signal caller for the next two season and he has been one of the best quarterbacks we have seen live this off-season. [player_tooltip player_id='2143224' first='Nathan' last='Tar'] is 6'2 and 190 lbs. before his junior campaign has even begun. At the Duel in the DMV he had the attention of my co-workers Pat Weider and Jamil Mets very impressed. Pat did a nice cut up of some of his throws from the duel, this should have Bruins fans excited for another playoff run. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/footballcoach79/status/2028583099374633140?s=20","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/footballcoach79/status/2028583099374633140?s=20 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1014894"],"_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-69b0313e813b3"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">We have had Gainesville back [player_tooltip player_id='1014894' first='Sylar' last='Pena'] on our radar for a while but him being ranked 194th overall does not seem right. He is expected to have a major role in the Cardinals offense next fall as they look to rebound from last season's set back. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/PenaSylar36987/status/2028547437657469282?s=20","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/PenaSylar36987/status/2028547437657469282?s=20 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
