Marques Easley
Marques Easley
The obvious cream of the crop for the entire state of Illinois. Marques is big, strong, long, athletic and nasty to boot. What he lacks in polish he more than makes up for in tenacity and finish. You can tell by watching his film that he is very well coached at the HS level and will only get better as he progresses. I could see him as more of a Right Tackle at the next level but he definitely will make his bones on the outside. He holds over 20 offers from all over the nation with recent visits taken to Cincinnati, Michigan State, Wisconsin and Northwestern. His Twitter handle is @marqueseasley10
Patrick is an interesting prospect as he is a bit undersized. While he has great film playing Defensive Line, I can see him putting on some weight and helping out any Offensive Line coach out there too. What he may lack in size he more than makes up for in athletic ability and finish on the field. Look for him to gather a lot of interest this off-season heading into his senior campaign.

Jeremiah Young
Jeremiah Young
Absolutely massive prospect from Champaign, IL that destroys opponents on film. Will obviously be curious how he translates to the next level and higher competition but he plays the part well. Currently plays Right Tackle but I could see him kicking inside to guard in college and still being just as dangerous. He is also obviously well coached but the polish he will get moving forward will only help him in the long run. He has made several visits already to the MAC and is awaiting his first offer.

Josh is another great prospect who handles the middle of the line for Lincoln Way East. He is the epitome of trench dawg and finishes every play at the echo of the whistle. Will definitely end up staying in the middle for whatever school he attends, whether staying at center or sliding over to one of the guard spots. As an added bonus is absolutely deadly from 3-point range on the basketball court. Josh has made several midwest visits and is awaiting his first offer. His Twitter handle is @JanowskiJosh
