<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The running back class is deep in the class of 2027, but most of them still have not made their official decisions at the next level. Below are some quick hitting notes on a number of dynamic backs. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1412577' first='TyAnthony' last='Lewis'] | Davison | </strong>Lewis is a phenomenal talent in the open field. Whether it be a dump off or swing pass, or letting him take sweeps or off tackle handoffs, this dude burns teams with outstanding speed and burst. He currently holds a few offers, but still largely under-recruited for what he can do for an offense.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1525577' first='Jeremiah' last='Coleman'] | Grand Blanc | </strong>A fellow SVL RB that saw him post over 1,400 all-purpose yards and 19 touchdowns. Absolutely dynamic back with great vision, good contact balance and the ability to turn on the jets once he gets into the open field. Incredibly exciting<a href="http://www.hudl.com/v/2T4dtV"> 2025 film </a>with the potential to do even more damage this fall. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1159014' first='Wyatt' last='VanAssen'] | Hudsonville |</strong> Underrated West Michigan RB that is versatile enough to deal damage both on the ground and through the air. Can line up anywhere in the backfield and be a matchup nightmare. Outstanding speed, great balance and super tough. No reason he doesn't have more offers. Whoever ends top with Wyatt on Saturdays will be getting an absolute steal. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1615802' first='Jeremiah' last='Whitley'] | Birmingham Groves |</strong> Everyone that has been around Jeremiah speaks incredibly high of him. From what I have seen, he has a powerful build that runs angry, gets behind his pads and absorbs contact well. He has continued to improve, and is just scratching the surface of how great he can be. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='547391' first='De'Mari' last='Hendrix'] | Cass Tech |</strong> De'Mari is built with a low center of gravity, does a great job of keeping his legs churning and is incredibly difficult to bring down. He has been extremely productive for the last few seasons at Cass Tech, and there's no reason he can't be an outstanding contributor at the next level. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1561018' first='James' last='Bambard IV'] | Lake Orion |</strong> James is being undervalued, largely due to an injury from last season. Make no mistake, at 6'1 200lbs, this dude is a bruising RB with great power, good vision and clear patience. Came out and balled at our PRZ event in the winter, and flashed plenty of upside. Potential late bloomer with plenty of upside. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
