This isn't my first time writing about [player_tooltip player_id='558416' first='Basil' last='Walter'], yet I feel as though I should shine light on this young man a bit more often. Camping, working in the weight room, Walter is a current junior that should have the spotlight this coming Fall. Gauging college coaches, however, it seems that many are still in the dark about many Abington prospects, Walter included. Can align anywhere between the c-gaps. Good second-phase winner, needs to work on his repertoire off the snap. Has the raw strength and power to shed after initial engagement. If he can work on his initial hand placement and closing speed, you can bet I'd rank him inside the top 300. He's close. Big fan of his potential.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-64474479c916c"} /--> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/basil90walter/status/1616587208462319617?s=20","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/basil90walter/status/1616587208462319617?s=20 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["769212"],"_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_0_evaluation":"[player_tooltip player_id='769212' first='Korey' last='Wyatt'] not being on the rankings is an oversight, as we got him mixed up with another Wyatt that recently graduated from Cheltenham HS. Korey's going to be back in the mix, and high at that. The year has seen Wyatt pick up two offers from LIU and Temple, while the young man has taken UOVs to Penn State and UConn to name a few. I intended to catch Wyatt and the rest of his Cheltenham teammates late Wednesday night, couldn't get to it. Yet the DB/ATH sets the tone from his position in the secondary. Highly competitive, can align at multiple safety spots, in multiple defensive sets, and can even cover the slot if need be. This young man isn't going to shy away from contact, watch him fill the alley while coming downhill. Expect him to help out on offense this Fall as well.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-64474479c91d0"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["386036"],"_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_0_evaluation":"We liked Sharlandiin Strange for some time now. Ranked as a top 20 player in Pennsylvania, we might still be too low on the young man. A thoroughbred EDGE rusher that has accumulated Power Five offers out of the SEC, BIG10, and ACC conferences. Strange has racked up offers out of Toledo, Pitt, USC, Nebraska, Notre Dame, Colorado, Virginia Tech, Illinois, South Carolina, and Cincinnati since the month of April. Multiple colleges had the opportunity to see him up close last night, we expect more offers to come soon.rnrnUnreal closing speed to the BC or the QB after shedding. Continuous work on his body has him boasting the ideal pass-rushing frame. Bend and flexibility off the edge have his upside through the roof. Tape shows Strange forcing tackles deep into the pocket just to get a hand on him. Love the length the young man displays. One of these Power Five schools will get him to fully unlock his potential, helping him how to better utilize angles and leverage. He'll be a name to watch quickly into his collegiate career.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-64474479c921a"} /--> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/zaqq4x/status/1656386634290479105?s=20","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/zaqq4x/status/1656386634290479105?s=20 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["142783"],"_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_0_evaluation":"Another Cheltenham prospect who needs to get back into the Top 150 after initially ranking as a Top 100 player earlier in his career. He'll get back. Kent State and LIU offered [player_tooltip player_id='142783' first='Zaire' last='Williams'] back in January. Interested in seeing if any FCS schools pull the trigger on this special slot playmaker. Consistent off-season worker who has been working the 7v7 circuit hard, while also visiting and keeping in touch with those interested in him. We may have overreacted to Zaire's limited junior tape, even though he was electric in those short moments.

I ask around if coaches know about [player_tooltip player_id='557858' first='Mekhai' last='Smith'], I usually get no's for answers. The Lower Merion QB/ATH is a name to know if you're recruiting Montgomery County. 6'2, 195, great frame. Three-sport athlete, dabbling in Baseball and Basketball, Smith's QB reps will draw you in, his reps at DB/ATH will keep you intrigued. Reminds me a ton of Episcopal Academy's [player_tooltip player_id='164530' first='Na'Rome' last='Rayborn']. Moldable, coachable, 3.7 GPA.
