PRZVA Showcase Series Preview: Intriguing Players to Watch

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>We are less than 24 hours from our Virginia Spring Showcase and it is looking like perfect weather for kids to compete tomorrow morning. I have broken down players to watch for each position group and as you can see we have a lot talent set to attend. Here is a list of a few intriguing players to keep an eye on:</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["264860"],"_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-69fdf80284c4a"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Currently DJ Butler is the top ranked linebacker in Maryland's 2029 class and ranks 5th overall playing for St. John's College. This is a rising sophomore who already holds power 4 offers, if Butler arrives tomorrow, he will turn heads! He can fly sideline to sideline and his footwork is nearly perfect, beginning to understand more why he has 12 Division 1 offers. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/DakotaButlerJr/status/2052478400384639339?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/DakotaButlerJr/status/2052478400384639339?s=20 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2164987"],"_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-69fdf80284ca1"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Speaking of underclassmen with offers, receiver [player_tooltip player_id='2164987' first='Noah' last='Manning'] received his first back in January from LSU, he too is registered to attend. Manning is 6'3 and will be a nightmare to cover during the 1vs1s. We have a good amount of upperclassmen playing defensive back tomorrow that are going to welcome the matchup. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1593082"],"_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-69fdf80284cc9"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">My guy Andrew Lewis can play multiple positions and he stood out at our North Carolina combine last week. Lewis can play quarterback or tight end at the next level in my opinion, I will be curious to see which position group he runs with tomorrow. He has impressed me on tape and in person before, I expect him to do the same Saturday.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/Andrew_LewisJr/status/2047440066969006433?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/Andrew_LewisJr/status/2047440066969006433?s=20 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2156072"],"_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-69fdf80284ced"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Really like [player_tooltip player_id='2156072' first='Brooks' last='Randolph'] tape he did some good things for Briar Woods as a sophomore last year. Accumulating 12 total touchdowns, Randolph is 6'6 with a cannon, he will plenty of FBS caliber receivers to target. Ranked him in the 2028 class top 200 curious to see how he does during the 1vs1s he is one of my early picks to earn Camp MVP honors.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/brooks_randlph/status/1993409404977504484?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/brooks_randlph/status/1993409404977504484?s=20 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1656711"],"_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-69fdf80284d0e"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Midlothian High School standout Jay Jay Anderson is scheduled to attend, this kid can fly currently ranked 32nd overall in the 2029 class. My colleague Jamil Metts had a great breakdown of him last week, I bet this young man runs the fastest 40 on site tomorrow. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1744254"],"_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-69fdf80284d39"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Intriguing hybrid linebacker/corner for Osbourn is rising senior [player_tooltip player_id='2197993' first='Zaire' last='Joseph']. He has solid size and good strength, he will come up and hit any ball carrier. Osbourn got him by the graduation and transfer bug this past off-season so it will be time for Joseph to step up into a bigger role. He is 5'11 and 190 lbs., he will have plenty of elite competition to go against tomorrow.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2049023"],"_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-69fdf80284d5a"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">I have heard a lot of hype about [player_tooltip player_id='2049023' first='Ethan' last='Hood'], now that is set to attend our showcase and play for St James looking forward to seeing what all the hype is about. Looking at his work during the 7v7s, Hood has a calming presence under center and looks like a veteran throwing the ball. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/ethanhood_2030/status/2023217052064911502?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/ethanhood_2030/status/2023217052064911502?s=20 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
