Nathan Nunn
Nathan Nunn
In a small sample size of seven games in his junior year, Nathan Nunn impressed with his ability to get after the ball quickly and instinctively from the edge position. Nunn showed good form staying low off the snap and using a dangerously quick first step to get around offensive tackles and cause havoc in the backfield. Combining his speed and form, Nunn is technician at tackling keeping his base wide and attacking to prevent running backs and quarterbacks from eluding him in close space. Standing at 6’2 and 260 lbs, Nunn is above average at using leverage against tackles in the pass rush and can use his strength to get past when needed. With more time, Nunn has the tools to be a playmaker this fall.

Israel Petite
Israel Petite
Israel Petite is an instinctive safety with superior reaction time to make throwing over the top a challenge against him. Reading and analyzing plays in real time, Petite plays his zone to shut down passing lanes and aid his teammates. Against the run, Petite reacts to draws and launches himself towards plays to keep big gains from happening. In open space, he uses his speed to attack ball carriers before they get a chance to make the first move and stop plays before they can fully develop. Petite is a true athlete and is a difference maker in the kick return game with his speed moving upfield. As a wide receiver, Petite has nice hands making him an asset on both offense and defense. Pettie has been busy this offseason with camps and has been the guest of several MAC schools.
Ben Midea Ben Midea 6’3″ | 290 lbs | OL Medina Buckeye | 2024 State OH was meant to play on the offensive line. His strength and aggression in the trenches make Midea reliable in the passing and running game. As a left tackle, Midea takes care of his assignment with consistency and often looks for another defender to remove from the play. Media is a student in the weightroom where he excels with impressive numbers to make him a better football player. Midea has above average body control of his large 6’4, 290 lbs frame to swing his hips out and open holes. Once he engages a defender, Midea drives hard with his steady feet and loves nothing more than a few pancakes on a Friday night. There’s no doubt Midea is a college athlete in the making and is starting to make colleges notice.

Ian Erb
Ian Erb
Ian Erb is often the best athlete strapped up when he steps on to the field. A gamer at the running back position with a nose for the end zone, Erb’s coaches are wise to get him involved in the offensive and defensive game plan as much as possible. As a running back, Erb is a big play waiting to happen with multiple long scores thanks to his one-cut style, ability to bounce off defenders and top end speed to get away from them. As a linebacker, Erb uses his speed to disrupt plays and get in the backfield quickly. Erb is a sound tackler with his wingspan to bring in ball carriers trying to elude him. He shows great instinct to disrupt against the RPO. Erb is a player college coaches should have on their radar for his motor and playmaking ability on both sides of the football.
