Cornist, a recent Tulane commit, is a beast at the RB position. When looking at Cornist’s senior season it is clear the time and resilience Cornist resembles and is just a small part of his talent. Strategy is a crucial to Cornist’s game play. When looking at the film it is evident that he is hard on defenses as he continues to plow through defensive backs. In addition, Cornist has no fear when coming through opposing defensive lines and then elevates the play to go the distance. 60+ yard drives ran by Cornist alone, often running into the end zone, his power behind his running and athleticism is incredible. I cannot wait to see the off-season progress and then Cornist at the collegiate level in the fall.

Bell, a 2x D1 state champion for Ohio, is one to watch as he preps accordingly this off-season. As a recent commit to Division 2 College, The University of Findlay, Bell seems nothing short of ready to take his journey to the next level. Based on his fall senior season highlights Bell sat at over 1,000 rushing yds, 28 touchdowns, on average 7yds per rush, and many other accomplishments. As Bell runs his ability to analyze his opponents is impeccable. He has great agility to dodge and change direction both laterally, while still maintaining forward drive for yardage. Bell’s accomplishments have led me to be excited with where he takes his off-season, whether that be perfecting his speed, pushing his drive even further, or whatever it may be. Watch out as Bell takes himself to the next level.

Davis, YSU commit is a powerhouse when put to the test on the field. Sitting at 6’1 215 Davis’ size as well as outstanding accuracy and speed have led him to success. While being committed since coming out of his junior year season at Alliance high school, made his senior season this past fall nothing but a movie. Davis, was extremely difficult for defenses as he could maneuver tight windows either coming from the back field or slot position. In addition to his maneuverability it is incredible with his size to hold such a strong consistent speed as well as be no match for DB’s against him. I’m excited watching through the lens of progression in this off-season and to see where Davis goes for the next 4.

Robinson, a February signing day prospect planning to succeed at Dusquene University, is very impressive on the field. Looking at his senior season Robinson was a conference MVP as well as in both his junior and senior year offensive player of the year. These accomplishments, while amazing, only show a fraction of the grit and drive Robinson demonstrates when in this position. Having multiple key plays 80+ yards often ending up with a TD Robinson is no match when it comes to efficiency on the field. He plays with a plan and that often doesn’t matter if 4 defenders are trying to get in his way or its open field. I’m excited as Robinson takes on this D1 leap and grows in this off-season leading to this next chapter.

Sanchez, a huge asset to Holy Name high schools offensive lineup. Coming in at 5’11 235 Sanchez’s abilities are wide and vast. A hugely versatile athlete Sanchez plows throw defenses when at the RB position and is a tough match when needed for blocking to make plays happen. He is a true play maker and allows for large amounts of yardage and forward progress to be made. In addition to his versatility his speed and awareness helps him make these huge decisions on the field. While the offers should be coming in and noticing Sanchez’s abilities, I am excited to see where he wants to go moving forward and in this off-season time to improve even more.
