Here are four Class of 2027 and 2028 names to know:</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2241876"],"_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-6a4b9ae39e2da"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Johnathan Rolling Jr. is a solid cover corner for Decatur Central who can cover and carry deep routes. Rolling possesses good ball skills with ability to whip his head around, play the ball, displays good recovery speed if beaten initially and has good timing with his hands to break up passes. Rolling holds offers from Depauw, Gannon, and Franklin College.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2241881"],"_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-6a4b9ae39e38e"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Vincent “Vinny” Harris is a very good defensive back for Lawrence North. Harris displays good closing speed and physicality. I believe he is a safety at the next level, where his skills against the run and ability to get downhill would be a big asset for any defense. Franklin College is his first offer, which he picked up on June 5. Two-sport athlete with potential to develop into a good prospect heading into his senior year. Very good special team coverage man on kickoffs and punts where he could make an immediate impact.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2241883"],"_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-6a4b9ae39e413"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">When we visited Plainfield last fall, [player_tooltip player_id='2241883' first='Devin' last='D'Amato'] was mentioned as a key name to watch this season by head coach Tyler Bless. D'Amato, based on limited tape, is a good run blocker and solid receiver. At 6-foot-2, 215 pounds he also possesses a good frame to be a linebacker. Franklin College is his first offer. With a 3.7 GPA, the Class of 2027 recruit is a high-academic prospect.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2178264"],"_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-6a4b9ae39e485"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Batesville High School Class of 2028 offensive lineman [player_tooltip player_id='2178264' first='Camden' last='Kaiser'] has the goods. At 6-foot-6, 290 pounds, he has prototypical size for the position. Tends to pop up out of his stance instead of playing low, but has a mean streak, great finisher and drives defenders off the ball. Picked up his first offer from Miami-Ohio and will be a name to watch this season. Could develop into a national recruit.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
