<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The 2027 class was just hit really hard by transfers in the last two months but the class as a whole is still really solid. There have been quite a few new names added in this update. Here's a look at the biggest movers in this update. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2124550"],"_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-68bf10d56f7f8"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Carothers is ready for a breakout on the court this season. Even though he's known more for his prowess as a quarterback, Dre'mail is a good basketball player too. He moved up from 41st to 30th in this update and will be one of the best players in the third region this season. Carothers should also be mentioned with the best two sport stars in Kentucky. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2149111"],"_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-68bf10d56f864"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Ethan is an intriguing prospect that I'd like to see more of. He climbed up 11 spots from 51st to 40th in this update and could still be underrated. With good size and the ability to score from all over, I think Buell could have some serious potential if he proves he can guard athletic wings out on the perimeter. When I've seen Ethan, he's been sitting in a zone most of the time.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2824404"],"_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-68bf10d56f8af"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Westmoreland goes up 100 spots this update and moves from 175th to 75th. Like Carothers, Larron is a big time football recruit and holds multiple D1 offers. On the court, he's just as dangerous thanks to his elite athleticism. With his size and athleticism, Westmoreland is a difference maker on the court and has been a big reason for J-Town's recent success.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2389580"],"_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-68bf10d56f8f4"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">A player who recently stood out at Kentucky Elite Camp, O'Hara is a big time sleeper that I think has the potential to play at the next level. Moving up from 134th overall to 76th, Kamden is a good athlete who has the ability to make plays on or off the ball. Exceling as a downhill driver, O'Hara is underrated for his overall athleticism as well as his ability to switch and guard multiple defenders.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2427850"],"_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-68bf10d56f937"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">A possible X Factor in for one of the top state title contenders this season, John moves up 17 spots from 99th to 82nd. Brecount has improved considerably every time I've seen him play and does not shy away from physical contact. On a Cov Cath team that lacks a really strong inside presence, the big man could provide exactly that and be a big difference maker this season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->

The 2027 class was just hit really hard by transfers in the last two months but the class as a whole is still really solid. There have been quite a few new names added in this update. Here's a look at the biggest movers in this update.
