Speed to burn

Pats Deep Dive Recruiting Class of 27 WR Ashaun Tubbs- @AshaunTubb374 6-1/180 Gautier, MS He is a high-motor, physical, and versatile prospect who transitioned more fully to offense while maintaining athletic flexibility. Evaluators describe him as tough, willing to block, and capable of stretching the field vertically. He participates in school leadership/club activities (Hope Squad for positivity and Ruin Crew advisory group) and demonstrates leadership by organizing offseason workouts for teammates. Vertical/Deep Threat: Long strides and reported 4.5 forty speed allow him to take the top off defenses. Evaluators specifically praise his ability to stretch the field. Ball Skills & Catch Radius: Wide catch radius, long arms, excellent deep-ball tracking, and over-the-shoulder technique. Comfortable snatching the ball in traffic or on the run. Physicality & Blocking: Tough, willing perimeter blocker who helps in the run game and on the edge. Physical after the catch. Versatility (ATH): Prior defensive experience (FS/ATH); can contribute on special teams or in multiple roles early in college. Character & Leadership: Determined, hungry, and focused. Organizes team workouts. Playmaking Upside: Multiple games with 30+ YPC averages show home-run hitting ability that can change games instantly.

🚨Navy Midshipmen Commit🚨 Class of 27 LB Drew Clancy- @clancy0110 6-3/225 Kennet Swuare, PA He is a physical, high-motor riser in the Northeast 2027 class with legitimate Division I tools, highlighted by his rare size/speed/strength combination and production as a key defensive leader for a competitive program. Prep Redzone evaluators have praised him as a player who “walks, talks, and acts like a Division One football player,” with multiple FBS offers and growing Power 4 interest. •  Instincts & Diagnostics: Veteran-like feel for the game, quick processor who reads keys, attacks downhill, and “teleports” to the ball carrier. Excellent at sniffing out plays and minimizing false steps. •  Run Defense & Pursuit: Great sideline-to-sideline range and closing speed for his size. Fires uphill, sheds blocks, and delivers violent tackles. One of the better run stoppers in his region; high-motor finisher who pursues with urgency. •  Pass Rush/Blitzing: Disruptive blitzer who jumps the snap, uses length/leverage, and creates pressure between guards or around the edge. •  Coverage & Versatility: Smooth in zone drops, patient in coverage, and capable of matching in space or knocking down passes. Improving every-down ability (coaches working on 3-down traits). Can align inside or outside. •  Physicality & Leadership: Plays “fast, loud, and energetic.” Authoritative tone-setter who leads by example and communicates assignments. Strong character and work ethic.

🚨East Carolina Pirates Commit🚨 Class of 27 RB Ira Dale Jr- @iradale4_ 5-11/200 Lehigh Acres, FL A balanced, north-south runner with good contact balance and two-way versatility. •  Burst & Acceleration: Immediate explosion through holes; the 4.51 speed creates instant separation once he hits the second level. High YPC reflects decisive cutting and re-acceleration. •  Power & Toughness: Thick, compact frame allows him to run through arm tackles and finish runs violently. Low pad level and leg drive make him difficult to bring down in short-yardage or goal-line situations. •  Vision & Elusiveness: Patient runner who sets up blocks well; good lateral quickness to make defenders miss in tight spaces. Strong film-study habits (self-described strength) help him anticipate defenses. •  Receiving & Versatility: Capable out of the backfield; reliable hands and route-running add a dimension in the passing game. •  Defensive Impact: Productive at MLB with solid tackling in space and run support. Two-way production proves football IQ, durability, and competitiveness. •  Intangibles: High-character kid with a strong work ethic (spring highlights emphasize pads work and strength gains). Coaches praise his leadership potential and humility. Info from my Tulane Green Wave Preview: Pats Deep Dive Recruiting @beinthekneaux

🚨Jax State Gamecocks Commit🚨 Class of 27 QB Jamarkius Smith- @RealJMark3 6-3/170 Notasulga, AL Smith is a long, lean, athletic quarterback with a prototypical frame for the position and natural explosiveness. He’s a fluid mover with quick-twitch burst to escape pressure and extend plays with his legs. Baseball background gives him elite arm speed, whippy mechanics, and natural throwing ability (T92–93 mph fastball as a RHP). Measurables include a reported 4.45 40-yard dash and 36” vertical (Hudl). He has room to add functional strength and mass, which will help him hold up against college defensive fronts and improve pocket presence. Coaches and scouts praise his poise, leadership, and competitive fire, he stepped into a starting role early and delivered state-title production as a sophomore. • Arm Talent & Deep Ball: Naturally gifted passer with a strong, accurate arm. Excels at dropping throws into the bucket on deep outs and go routes with good placement (especially outside shoulder). Smooth, effortless motion that maintains velocity on the move or off-platform. • Athleticism & Play Extension: Fluid athlete who can escape the pocket, buy time, and create with his legs. Dangerous dual-threat when plays break down, turns negative situations into positive yards. • Poise & Vision: Plays with confidence and pocket presence. Good downfield vision, layers balls over LBs, and attacks vertically while trusting his receivers. Decisive and sees the field well in structure. • Leadership & Production: Led a state-title run as a sophomore. High-motor, high-character kid who elevates teammates. Multi-sport athleticism (baseball arm/athleticism) translates directly to football explosiveness. • Measurable Upside: Size + speed combo is rare, prototypical build with room to grow into a P4 starter profile.

🚨Kansas State Wildcats Commit🚨 Class of 27 WR Ashton Stark- @unleASHed2027 5-10/170 Lutcher, LA WR Stark lines up primarily outside but shows slot versatility and the ability to take jet sweeps/hand-offs. Key traits visible on highlights: •  Explosive get-off and acceleration: quick release off the line, immediate top-end speed. •  YAC threat: shiftiness in space, elusive after the catch, and the ability to turn short throws into big gains. •  Ball skills: strong hands, high-points the ball, and tracks it well deep. •  Route running: developing; shows smooth breaks and the ability to create separation with speed rather than pure technique at this stage. •  Big-play ability: multiple explosive plays per game; threat to score every time he touches the ball. He has the tools to develop into a dynamic slot receiver or field-stretcher who forces defenses to account for his speed on every snap. DB Stark contributes significantly on the back end (CB and safety). •  Instincts and ball production: 4 INTs as a junior, including game-changing picks and returns. •  Physicality: willing tackler who plays with toughness despite size. •  Coverage skills: mirrors receivers well, quick feet in press or off-man, and excellent range when playing safety. •  Versatility: can flip sides and contribute in multiple defensive packages. His defensive tape reinforces his athletic profile, he reads keys quickly, has excellent closing speed, and makes plays on the ball.

🚨Tulane Green Wave Commit🚨 Class of 27 RB Aymaud Sykes- @aymaud_S1 6-0/180 Dry Prong, LA Running Style & Vision Patient, decisive downhill runner who attacks gaps with burst and vision. Excels in gap/zone schemes, presses the line, finds cutbacks, and turns small holes into chunk gains. Long speed creates home-run potential on every carry.  Explosiveness & Elusiveness Elite acceleration and top-end speed (4.29 40 + track pedigree). Makes defenders miss in space with sharp cuts, sudden burst, and stride length. Once past the second level, he separates quickly.  Contact Balance & Power Violent finisher with pad level and leg churn. Breaks arm tackles, drives through contact, and falls forward consistently.

Reliable hands and route-running in the passing game; mismatch weapon on swings, screens, and wheels. Defensive experience adds special teams/ATH value. Football IQ & Intangibles High-character leader who embraced featured role and elevated his game. Mature processor with strong work ethic.

Coach Hall is going to win. And he is going to shape the lives of these young men in the process. I was lucky to have a coach who believed in that critical mission too and am forever grateful for @CoachMackBrown. Game changer for so many of us.

Was at @GreenWaveFB practice and heard @Coach_Hall7 address the team about making a difference - on the field and in life - and how 1 person can make a difference in the lives of many. Reminded me of how blessed I have been by incredible people in my life. Brotherhood. Family.
