Supreme '18 Tracker: Jaelen Gill is Lights Out in Return From Injury While Josh Proctor Continues to Show Playmaking Ability

TURNED OUT THE LIGHTS

Ohio State five-star running back commit Jaelen Gill felt he had a lot to prove in Friday night's game against Dublin Scioto. After all, the Irish held him without a touchdown in last year's 24-15 loss, the only full game in which he played as he fractured his fibula one week later.

This time around, though, the 6-foot-1, 182-pound Gill rushed for 138 yard and three scores and caught a 32-yard touchdown pass right before the half to lead the Wildcats to a 50-14 victory. In fact, the only thing that slowed his offensive production was an electrical problem that forced officials to delay the second half for nearly two hours because the stadium lights would not turn on it.

Coaches debated finishing the game on Saturday morning, but they flickered back to life around 9:30 p.m. Gill, who scored on runs of 8, 41 and 6 yards, added his third of the evening shortly after the intermission to put Scioto away for good.

MALIK HOOKER-ESQUE

Ohio State four-star safety commit Josh Proctor went viral one week ago when he took a screen pass 60-yards and delivered a devastating stiff arm to a would-be tackler on the way into the end zone. On Friday night, though, he showed he's just as lethal on the defensive side of the ball, too.

With Owasso, Oklahoma, leading Jenks, 27-10, and the latter on the doorstep of cutting into the lead, the 6-foot-2 Proctor stepped in front of a pass and returned it 100-yards for the score.

The 14-point swing turned what could have been a close game at the half into a 48-10 rout.

“I saw him just try to chuck it up there, so I thought I'd stick an arm out,” Proctor said after the game. “I didn't think I was going to run it back. That was a long way. I ended up throwing up on the sideline.”

SO CLOSE

With just over a minute remaining in Saturday afternoon's game on ESPNU, Ohio State five-star quarterback commit Emory Jones drove Heard County, Georgia, to the red zone and fired a perfectly-placed 15-yard pass to a wide open receiver for the go-ahead score. It was dropped, though, and the Braves' subsequent field-goal attempt on fourth down sailed wide to give Saraland, Alabama, a 17-14 win.

The 6-foot-3, 195-pound Jones completed six of 11 passes for 99 yards and a touchdown and rushed for 52 more, but his final pass — incomplete to no fault of his own — will surely sting moving forward. To make matters worse, all five of his incompletions a week ago were dropped, too.

Jones also made some big hits on defense from he safety position, doing a little bit of everything for Heard County in his final season at the prep level.

New to this year's prep tracker is the inclusion of every commit's schedule. We'll keep track of their team's records and compile their stats for a better scope of how their respective seasons are unfolding, as opposed to a simple week-by-week recap.
