Elite 2031s In Tennessee To Know About Now

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>There is an assortment of talented rising stars in the state of Tennessee in the class of 2031. After spending the offseason watching an abundance of rising eighth graders in action, I've put together a list of some prospects that I believe have what it takes to make an immediate impact at the high school level. Without any further ado, here's my list of some elite 2031s in the Volunteer State to know about now.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1326140"],"_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-6a337b7b6a993"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">In the first place spot on my list is [player_tooltip player_id='1326140' first='Titus' last='Holloway'], an athlete at Oakland Middle School. Holloway is a talented prospect out of the Murfreesboro area that caught my attention this offseason. I like Holloway at receiver, but he's proven he can also be very productive defensively. Holloway's great size and wingspan has helped him to consistently haul in the touchdown pass as well as deflect the pass on the defensive side of the ball.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2111934"],"_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-6a3484643ced0"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Another playmaker to know about now is [player_tooltip player_id='2111934' first='Jaxon' last='McCoy'], a linebacker at Brentwood Academy. McCoy is definitely a name to know as the rising star earned MVP honors at our recent Prep Redzone Next camp in Nashville. On top of a great frame and electric speed off the snap, I like McCoy's strength and execution, standing out multiple times over the course of the offseason. This rising talent out of the Brentwood area is definitely worth watching out for in the future.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2179355"],"_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-6a337b7b6aae5"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">I am additionally impressed with [player_tooltip player_id='2179355' first='LJ' last='Williams'], a wide receiver/defensive back at Pope John Paul II. Williams is an extremely versatile two-way player that I believe will impress college coaches in a few years. On top of excellent speed off the snap and great catching ability, Williams has an outstanding frame. This talented prospect out of the Hendersonville area is certainly worth having on the radar as he continues to grow. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2110014"],"_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-6a337b7b6ac01"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Claiming the number four spot on my list is [player_tooltip player_id='2110014' first='Carter' last='Hogsett'], an athlete at Christiana Middle School. Hogsett is another top tier prospect to know about as I believe he could shape up to be one of the more productive athletes in the state of Tennessee in his class. In addition to superior catching, I like Hogsett's speed and ability to attack the ball in the air. Hogsett also does a good job shutting down passing lanes on the defensive side of the ball.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1590892"],"_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-6a337b7b6ad18"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Another prospect to know about is [player_tooltip player_id='1590892' first='Elijah' last='Lansden'], a linebacker that could prove to be a top tier defensive playmaker in high school. Lansden has been on my radar since the start of this offseason, catching my attention with his excellent size, speed, and execution every rep. This rising talent out of the Middle Tennessee area will definitely be worth watching out for in the near future. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2175919"],"_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-6a337b7b6ae6d"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Another player to know about is [player_tooltip player_id='2175919' first='Jack' last='Norman'], a quarterback at Brentwood Academy. Norman is an exciting signal caller to get familiar with as I caught him in action earlier this offseason. A few things that stand out about Norman is his great size, his powerful arm, and his ability to quickly get the ball into the air. I also like Norman's ability to drop back and launch the deep pass with ease.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1709573"],"_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-6a337b7b6afb3"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">I also really like what I've seen from [player_tooltip player_id='1709573' first='Amarie' last='Walker'], a running back at Friendship Christian School. Walker has excellent size and a great frame for a rising eighth grader. Another facet of Walker's playstyle that impresses is his strong footwork and ability to pick up speed off the snap. This talented playmaker out of the Lebanon area is worth watching out for as he continues to develop.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1695374"],"_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-6a337b7b6b0bc"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Also worth mentioning is Charles "Jojo" Booker, a running back at Oakland Middle School. What makes Booker such an impressive rising talent is his ability to be extremely productive on both sides of the ball. Offensively, I really like how Booker can create seperation in the backfield and consistently haul in the touchdown pass. On the other side, Booker showcases outstanding defensive awareness, proving he can shut down the pass with his ability to read the offense like a book.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
