Ohio Week Two Sleepers

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Week two has come and passed, leaving us with some memorable matchups. Before we dive into week three, I wanted to look at some of the top sleepers through week two. These young men have battled early this season and have played their tails off for their respective programs. As a whole, it's not a highly recruited group, with currently only one prospect with an FBS offer ([player_tooltip player_id='380259' first='Joe' last='Ginnetti'] an Air Force commit). However, this group most certainly has a bright future this season and beyond &amp; should gain recruiting traction as the season moves on. With that being said, here's who you need to know!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:separator {"className":"is-style-wide"} --> <hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity is-style-wide"/> <!-- /wp:separator --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><em>LB: [player_tooltip player_id='92623' first='Colton' last='Powers'], 5'11" 205, Marysville, SR</em></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><li>Burst and instincts are off the charts.</li><li>Delivers punishing blows when shedding blocks at the point of attack.</li><li>Shows terrific closing speed once he diagnoses a run.</li><li>Has shown he's a consistent tackler in space. </li><li>Is a bruising fullback on the offensive side of the football.</li></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:separator {"className":"is-style-wide"} --> <hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity is-style-wide"/> <!-- /wp:separator --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><em>RB: [player_tooltip player_id='92628' first='Dawaun' last='Green'], 6'2" 220, Pickerington North, SR</em></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><li>Has a bulky lower half that plays well into his violent running style.</li><li>Arm tackles don't stand a chance against this guy.</li><li>Keeps his feet moving once initial contact is made.</li><li>Is a dominant force when he sniffs the goal line. </li><li>Turns into a cutback machine if the defense overpursues. </li></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:separator {"className":"is-style-wide"} --> <hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity is-style-wide"/> <!-- /wp:separator --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><em>DB: Carter Bugara, 5'10" 160, Alliance, SR</em></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><li>Fantastic anticipation jumping route concepts.</li><li>Has the speed to work off man out of the slot.</li><li>Is a forceful tackler when coming down and running the alley.</li><li>Shows impressive ball skills for a defensive back. </li></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:separator {"className":"is-style-wide"} --> <hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity is-style-wide"/> <!-- /wp:separator --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><em>DE: [player_tooltip player_id='410367' first='Kevin' last='Porter'], 6'2" 220, Olentangy, JR</em></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><li>Wrong arm creates serious issues for pullers.</li><li>Is quite slippery when engaged on the line.</li><li>Gets his second step in the ground quickly, providing serious issues for tackles in pass protection.</li><li>Production has been through the roof early this season.</li></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:separator {"className":"is-style-wide"} --> <hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity is-style-wide"/> <!-- /wp:separator --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><em>DB: Cayden Christopher, 5'11" 185, Pickerington North, SR</em></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><li>A freaky athlete that is committed to Ohio State for lacrosse. </li><li>Plays downhill and takes great angles to the tackle.</li><li>His range is just ridiculous on tape. </li><li>Has the speed to chase down opposing ball carriers from behind.</li><li>Always around the football, looking to make a play.</li></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:separator {"className":"is-style-wide"} --> <hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity is-style-wide"/> <!-- /wp:separator --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><em>LB: [player_tooltip player_id='380259' first='Joe' last='Ginnetti'], 6'2" 225, Archbishop Moeller, SR</em></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><li>Effortless change of direction at the second level.</li><li>Tackle attempts turn into ferocious collisions.</li><li>Has an extremely high motor that stays tuned for four quarters.</li><li>Is a throwback, hard-nosed, blue-collar, inside linebacker prospect.</li></ul> <!-- /wp:list -->
