Recruiting Roundup: Rising Seniors On the Rise

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Spring recruiting is in full swing, with several prospects in the Buckeye State seeing their recruiting blow up, or some landing their first offers. Here are four Ohio prospects who have been on a roll over the past two weeks.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1547084"],"_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-69f0aceeee925"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Westerville North (Ohio) Class of 2027 defensive end Damion King picked up an offer from Appalachian State, his 14^th overall offer but the first one he has had in quite awhile. King, a 6-foot-4, 240-pound edge prospect, has huge upside given his frame to flourish in a college program. Moreover, he is taking care of business in the classroom, holding a 3.6 GPA and will be an early enrollee. His junior year, where he recorded 72.5 tackles and 11.5 sacks, really put him on the map.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1967881"],"_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-69f0aceeee9a0"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">King's teammate at Westerville North, Class of 2027 defensive back De'Von Dallas, has plenty of upside. The 6-foot-1, 190 pound safety is excellent in coverage, but where he really pops is his abilities against the run. Dallas is quick to read-and-react to the ball, very explosive, and flashes great closing speed. Youngstown State and Bowling Green are some of his recent offers.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1622887"],"_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-69f0aceeee9ef"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">The fruits of Hilliard Darby High School Class of 2027 defensive end Logan Krooner are starting to pay off. The 6-foot-3, 240-pound defensive end recorded 11.5 sacks, 64 total tackles and three forced fumbles and 32 quarterback pressures last season and college coaches have taken notice. He has earned offers from Central Michigan, Army, Ohio, Fordham, Bowling Green and Colgate over the past month.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1309261"],"_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-69f0aceeeea3a"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">I'm really, really surprised Power 4 teams haven't taken a liking to Glenville Class of 2027 defensive back Khyier Robinson, who is a big-time ballhawk. Robinson has a top-tier Division I frame and arm length at 6-foot-4, 195 pounds; he moves like a man who weighs 160. Smooth-hipped, loose, and with great ball skills, he snatches INTs out of the air, can high-point the ball and has great use-of-hands in coverage. His most-recent offer comes from Youngstown State, but expect Power 4 teams to eventually jump for his services very soon.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
