Continue ReadingOn a weekly basis, I look into our film room to take a quick view of updated highlight films we received recently. During my last visit, these recruits posted their highlight link in my Twitter thread. Upon review, I break down a “bit” of what I saw from newly named recruits who were not known to me prior to watching the film and are worthy of knowing. This preview includes recruits in all classes.
Elijah Darity Elijah Darity 5’9″ | 185 lbs | RB Loomis Chaffee | 2025 State New E HIs speed and quickness stand out. He is a solid blocker from the backfield. He can plant and break opposite direction instantly. Has high level athleticism seen in his skills. A young player who can become even more dynamic as he develops. High Ceiling….
Highlights
Davian McDonald Davian McDonald 6’2″ | 185 lbs | QB Williston Northampton | 2025 State New E . Impressive athlete. His ability to make tight window accurate throws caught my attention. When flushed out the pocket he doesn’t pannick. Pocket awareness is excellent. I loved the ball placement in his throws when throwing to his targets. Can make plays with his feet. Has good balance and footwork.
Daniel Keefe Daniel Keefe 6’5″ | 250 lbs | OL West Roxbury Catholic Memorial | 2024 State New E Gives relentless effort in each rep. Has good burst from pre-snap stance. He uses leverage to move defenders. Plays until the whistle blown. Keeps his feet moving while drive blocking defenders backwards. He can bend at the knees and gets both feet in the ground at presnap. Large frame that can move.
Highlights
Nathan Tenney Nathan Tenney 6’2″ | 270 lbs | OL South Windsor | 2025 State New E He is a solid gap controller. Love his quickness from a defensive stance. He is disruptive and aggressive. He uses good hand technique when getting off blocks. He is a grinder in the trenches and will fight each rep to make a play. The one characteristic that I love in his skill set is his effort. He simulates being nasty, chasing the ball sideline to sideline, and never giving up. He may not be as fast as the next guy, but he has that effort and can make plays.
Highlights
Walter Mayo Walter Mayo 6’3″ | 185 lbs | ATH Dennis-Yarmouth Regional | 2025 State New E Hidden in the deep landscape of Cape Cod Massachusetts is where you will find “Mayo”. He is a nicely framed receiver who can run precise routs. He has solid hands and can pluck the ball out of the air when targeted. Has good body control and balance. He knows how to get seperation. Will fight for the ball at the highest point. Has good YAC. His Coach has confirmed his season stats to be 29 catches for 558 yards, 3 TD, and 0 drops as a sophomore this year.
