He has tremendous versatility as a prospect, playing at quarterback during his freshman season. He is likely a wide receiver or cornerback at the next level. The 6-foot-2, 190-pound prospect has the size and frame to earn early offers from Miami-Ohio and Bowling Green; he is a future big-time prospect who we'll be keeping an eye on.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2212610"],"_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-6a0dc5688c146"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Alijah Levengood is a bit of a do-it-all prospect for Tuscarawas Valley: he plays quarterback, outside linebacker, wide receiver and has played snaps as a safety. While he flashes good route running skills and get yards after contact, I think his college fit is on defense, where his closing speed, instincts and ball flow are all positive qualities. The Class of 2029 recruit flashes being a great downhill hitter with outstanding closing speed. Picked up his first offer from Akron.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2181907"],"_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-6a0dc5688c1e2"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Braylon Gamble can be a ballhawk safety with outstanding ball skills. The 6-foot-2, 200-pound, Class of 2027 prospect is very instinctive, quick to read and react, drops in coverage and makes plays on the ball. He was named all-county first team and all district second team. HIs efforts are finally starting to be recognized, having earned offers from Tennessee-Martin, Boston College (his first Power 4), Bowling Green, and Toledo in recent weeks.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2212613"],"_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-6a0dc5688c281"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Ma'kahi Maddox is a starting defensive tackle for Finn Academy, and the 6-foot-4, 294-pound defensive lineman has good first-step quickness and looks very athletic. We have limited tape on him because he is still growing and finding his role as a player, but he shined at his team' college day, earning offers from Eastern Michigan, Youngstown State, Kent State and West Liberty.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
