Good feel for putting touch and different zip on passes when they are needed.  Hits his back foot and lets it fly with velo or on a rope downfield on go routes.  Footwork is consistent and works well in play action passing.  Good ball placement putting it where his receiver can make the play and do damage after.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1683690"],"_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-69a32da439528"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">This 6'3" 205 pound quarterback is also a top 20 hooper in the state.  Well built QB that has a strong build and pocket presence.  Pushes the ball downfield with his arm strength finding his weapons on vertical routes.  Shows off his athleticism being able to throw on the run effectively moving out of the pocket while keeping his accuracy.  Zip on passes threading the needle over the middle in traffic.  When he hits his back foot and lets it fly it is a thing of beauty! Touch on the deep ball dropping it in the bucket.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["427474"],"_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-69a32da4395aa"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Wilson goes 6'3" and 185 pounds.  He was primarily the backup for the Flyers this season recording 527 yards through the air on 70% completion percentage while recording 11 touchdowns.  Lanky frame with good athleticism who is a major threat with his legs running with long strides.  Accuracy going over the middle ripping it in tight spaces with velocity and sound mechanics.  Works well off play action.  Throws well on the run.  Good accuracy and touch on the deep balls.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["971616"],"_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-69a32da439623"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Persich is a dual sport athlete at 6'4" 220 pounds that is among the best players in central Illinois. Strong runner that throws well on the move.  Powerful runner that wins on both designed rushes and when plays break down. Runs over defenders. As a passer he is accurate both in and out of the pocket.  Pushes it downfield with touch and accuracy.  One of the best in the state throwing outside of the pocket and making magic happen when something isn't there.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["992492"],"_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-69a32da43969c"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Vita is a 6'3" signal caller that this past year threw for 1,906 yards and 15 touchdowns on 67% completion rate.  Also ran for 520 yards and 8 touchdowns.  Vita is a pocket passer with a strong frame and powerful arm.  Fits the ball in tight areas with accuracy and velo. Sound footwork who stands in the pocket under pressure and delivers it well.  Capable runner on designed plays and works well with ball fakes on play action and keeping for runs.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["971614"],"_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-69a32da43970b"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Carter is a 6'6" quarterback that as a sophomore had 1,943 passing yards, 17 touchdowns, on 69% completion percentage.  Also ran for 163 yards and 2 rushing scores. Long and lanky frame with a big arm!  Leans back and lets it rip downfield. Steps up in the pocket when rushers are around him. Good athlete that runs with long strides.  At his best on the deep ball throwing it over different levels of the defense.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
