<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Central Ohio features some of the top prospects in the state and Midwest region as a whole. With so many big-time prospects in Columbus and the surrounding area, talent is bound to shine. Here are four names you haven't heard of yet but likely will by the time summer camp season rolls around.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1922520"],"_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-69d6627658fe9"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1922520' first='Damontae' last='Butler'] is a starting cornerback for Reynoldsburg High School. Butler is a very tough, physical and feisty cover corner who can play press, jam, and has a physical nature about him. Butler displays good timing with his hands to strike, jolt receivers off their route and disrupt the timing with the QB. He can stay in phase without losing speed. Strong prospect who has picked up a couple of offers recently.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1170466"],"_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-69d66276590bd"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1170466' first='Johnathan' last='Quartey'] is a starting wide receiver for Bishop Hartley. Quarter is a very good possession wideout who comes down with the ball in traffic and knows how to score. While he isn't a burner and is more of a linear route runner, he has enough speed to stretch the field vertically and be a threat with the ball in his hands. Quarter has a 6-foot-2, 170-pound frame and holds one Division I offer so far, but expect his stock to rise after college camps.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2167535"],"_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-69d6627659154"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='2167535' first='Bryce' last='Wells'] is a very strong defensive end who can set an edge, wrap up, and hold the point of attack v. The run. Tall, long, 6-foot-4, 240-pound, high-academic prospect who can occupy space as well and allow his teammates to clean up the play. I could see Wells moving inside to the DT position just given his frame and becoming a twitchy interior DL at the college level.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2107330"],"_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-69d66276591e1"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='2107330' first='Jeremiah' last='Ogbeifun'] is a starting offensive lineman for Pickerington Central. He is a very good run blocker who has played both OT and OG; his position at the college level is likely at guard. A 6-foot-6, 285-pound prospect, he has a great frame for the position. He is very good at latching into defenders and driving them off the ball, has good power in his legs. Needs to learn to unlock and roll his hips. In pass pro, he flashes good hand placement and strike timing, and is able to neutralize edge rushers with his frame and size alone. Keep an eye on him to pick up offers during college camps.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><br><br><br><br><br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
