His ability to make defenders miss is next-level good. It is unwise for most running backs to reverse the field to run the ball, but Hill is the exception. His ability to do that is special. That, along with his speed, makes him incredible. He was once committed to West Virginia, but he has since decommitted. He has a good chance with other programs and is still interested in picking a good college. He did pick up an offer from Cincinnati. I expect him to be one of the most sought-after running backs in the 2027 class.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:html --> <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr"><a href="https://x.com/hashtag/agtg?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#agtg</a> Beyond blessed to receive an offer from The University of Cincinnati <a href="https://x.com/CoachDawkins1?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@CoachDawkins1</a> <a href="https://x.com/GoBearcatsFB?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@GoBearcatsFB</a> <a href="https://t.co/XeSuSrjX4e">pic.twitter.com/XeSuSrjX4e</a></p>&mdash; 4⭐️𝐑𝐁 “𝐌𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐨” (@ArmandHill_2) <a href="https://x.com/ArmandHill_2/status/2026731431435682089?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">February 25, 2026</a></blockquote> <!-- /wp:html --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1180703"],"_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-6a7d141c218b4"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1180703' first='Ben' last='Grabowski'] is a great player in the 2027 class. To me, he is ranked too low by Prep Redzone. He is a stud as a running back. The kid can do it all. Physical running back? Yes. Elite speed? Yes. Ability to make defenders miss? Yes. Grabowski epitomizes what a running back should be. He is an elite player. He even catches the ball well. Then you add in his ability as a linebacker, and you've got an even better player. He flies downhill to make plays. Grabowski is an elite player in the 2027 class.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:html --> <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">2025 season highlights ⁦<a href="https://x.com/ptwarriorfb?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@ptwarriorfb</a>⁩ <a href="https://t.co/BVRQIlsG1l">https://t.co/BVRQIlsG1l</a></p>&mdash; [player_tooltip player_id='1180703' first='Ben' last='Grabowski'] (@grabowski_ben8) <a href="https://x.com/grabowski_ben8/status/1988316457650766227?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">November 11, 2025</a></blockquote> <!-- /wp:html --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1624012"],"_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-6a7d141c2194a"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1624012' first='Charles' last='Hart'] is an elite running back.

Then you add in a wicked jump cut, and you've got a running back who is hard to tackle. Finally, he has elite speed, and once he gets into the open field, he is off to the end zone. The Youngstown commit is a highly skilled running back. He has the same skill set as a running back, and he does the same thing as an outside linebacker. He does a good job flying downhill to make plays. Hart is an elite prospect who is already committed to college, but has unfinished business. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:html --> <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Junior year Regular Szn Film!! <br>6'0 210 RB/LB/DE<br>🎥: <a href="https://t.co/GZAVK14Wv4">https://t.co/GZAVK14Wv4</a><br><br>86 Carries 533 Yards <br>7 TDs <br>10 Receptions 68 Yards <br>25 Tackles 4 TFL 1 FF 1 Sack <br>9 games played <a href="https://x.com/pitt75panther?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@pitt75panther</a> <a href="https://x.com/Cline8Kyle?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@Cline8Kyle</a> <a href="https://x.com/KingKarim36?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@KingKarim36</a> <a href="https://x.com/ajs909?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@ajs909</a> <a href="https://x.com/Coach_TJYoung?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@Coach_TJYoung</a> <a href="https://x.com/jyoungy_10?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@jyoungy_10</a> <a href="https://x.com/PlumAthletics?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@PlumAthletics</a>… <a href="https://t.co/Ib6AjGHHWd">pic.twitter.com/Ib6AjGHHWd</a></p>&mdash; Charles “CJ” Hart (@cj1hart) <a href="https://x.com/cj1hart/status/1985403357293658251?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">November 3, 2025</a></blockquote> <!-- /wp:html --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1623936"],"_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-6a7d141c219c7"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Eli Salvani is an elite playmaker who can score anytime he touches the ball. An example of his playmaking ability is when he returned a kickoff for a touchdown. His ability to hit top speed and make moves in the open field is excellent. He excels at running past defenders. Once he gets into the open field, he has elite speed and moves to make defenders miss. He constantly shows that elite speed to run by defenders. He also shows a physical running style. Then on defense, he is an outstanding outside linebacker. Salvini is a true playmaker in the 2027 class.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:html --> <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">FULL SEASON HIGHLIGHTS ‼️‼️<br>12-1 semi finalists <br>938yds<br>9.3YPC‼️<br>18 Rushing tds‼️<br>1 KOR td<br>Over 1000 all purpose yards‼️<a href="https://x.com/CoachDuzzPittFB?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@CoachDuzzPittFB</a> <a href="https://x.com/WPIAL_Insider?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@WPIAL_Insider</a> <a href="https://x.com/wpialsportsnews?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@wpialsportsnews</a> <a href="https://x.com/AdamCalt?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@AdamCalt</a> <a href="https://x.com/Rivals?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@Rivals</a> <a href="https://x.com/FortCherryFB?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@FortCherryFB</a> <a href="https://x.com/PA_TodaySports?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@PA_TodaySports</a> <a href="https://x.com/CoachCBW?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@CoachCBW</a> <a href="https://x.com/coachjsieg?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@coachjsieg</a> <a href="https://x.com/Coach?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@coach</a><a href="https://t.co/DdxAlk7NLI">https://t.co/DdxAlk7NLI</a></p>&mdash; [player_tooltip player_id='1623936' first='Eli' last='Salvini'] (@elisalvini67) <a href="https://x.com/elisalvini67/status/1991956600329064656?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">November 21, 2025</a></blockquote> <!-- /wp:html --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1650107"],"_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-6a7d141c21a3c"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1650107' first='Prentice' last='Organ'] is one smooth-running back.
