<p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='2172402' first='Kaden' last='Blackman'] is a breakout candaidte for El Dorado this fall. He's quick off the snap, enabling the ability to shoot inside gaps and create pressure in the backfield. His early penetration is key to the end. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='2172403' first='Khamajh' last='Poole'] brings experience at both wide receiver and linebacker for Osceola. He's a reliable target near the boundary within the short to intermediate levels of the field. At linebacker, he can fill gaps and become physical at the POA. He earned an offer from Arkansas Baptist. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='2172413' first='Ethan' last='Mitchell'] is going to break out in a major way in 2026. Off the snap, he engages the body with good hand placement and timing to create leverage and drive the guards back with good lower body strength to create pressure. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='2172420' first='Cooper' last='Goodall'] earned 2025 All-Conference last season for Atkins. He's a physical, downhill gap runner with good contact balance. He doesn't shy away from contact and will be a strong asset in short-yardage situations. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1345288' first='Demonte' last='Lawrence'] is a prospect to add to the recruiting board. I expect him to take a major leap this fall. Lawrence displays solid upfield burst off the snap, engaging the tackle's body with solid UOH to shed and make a play in the backfield. Overall, he plays through the rep. </p>
