<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Beechcroft</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Rosean Burns</strong>, RB, 2024 - Rosean is an outstanding athlete on both sides of the ball. He is a multi-sport star and was just named 1st Team All Central Ohio in basketball. His football skills are off the charts. He is very twitchy, fast and athletic. He makes people miss whenever he has the ball. He hits the edge at RB and accelerates quickly. He aligns at WR and can blow past man coverage. He rocks ball carriers at FS when triggering downhill. He covers all the routes and stays deeper than the deepest. Impressive player with lots of upside.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>HUDL: <a href="https://www.hudl.com/profile/14985090/Rosean-Burns">https://www.hudl.com/profile/14985090/Rosean-Burns</a></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Lakota West</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='412378' first='Taebron' last='Bennie-Powell']</strong>, Hybrid/TE, 2024 - Taebron is a stud and has offers from Duke, Western Michigan, West Virginia, Illinois, and Cincinnati. He can flat out ball on both sides of the LOS. He is the prototypical hybrid player on Defense. He aligns on the edge and out over number 2. He is really athletic, fast, and twitchy. He reads plays correctly and applies his athleticism to make tackles for loss. He is a great cover DB and can run with TE's, RB's, and especially slot receivers. When he blitzes on passing downs, gets to the QB with a vengeance. He is a finisher and can be counted on to make the big play. At TE he does a lot of things really well including blocking, fades, digs, and overs. He catches out from his body and has the hip turn to gain serious YAC. Impressive player with a lot of upside for a Power 5 institution.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>HUDL: <a href="https://www.hudl.com/profile/12551713/Taebron-BenniePowell">https://www.hudl.com/profile/12551713/Taebron-BenniePowell</a></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Pickerington Central</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1272672' first='Carson' last='Goulet']</strong>, K, 2025 - Carson is only a Sophomore but will be an outstanding K for the next two years. He has great FG technique. He takes two steps and bangs the ball with good height. He hit some long FG's this past season from multiple hashes. His kickoffs average around 3.4 hang time with 55 yards in length. Had some big touchbacks this past season. Does not have punting highlights but has the leg for it. Keep an eye on him.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>HUDL: <a href="https://www.hudl.com/profile/16665009/Carson-Goulet">https://www.hudl.com/profile/16665009/Carson-Goulet</a></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Kings </strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1582411' first='Kato' last='Meissner']</strong>, TE/DE, 2025 - How Kato doesn't have any offers is beyond me. He is big at 6'3/230, carries a 3.9 GPA, and is athletic as all get out. At DE has the ability to play out of a 3 point and standing up. Reads plays correctly and takes on blocks with proper technique. He locks out quickly and escapes blocks easily. He is a nightmare in the pass rush. On critical downs he stands up and uses his speed rush to blow by tackles. He is a great tackler with aggression. At TE is utilized in a myriad of alignments. He catches the seam, dig, and crosser well. Deadly in the screen game with the ability to score. Runs behind his pads and lays a hurting on the defense. Impressive player with a lot of upside.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>HUDL: <a href="https://www.hudl.com/video/3/15369028/6388011315f5a50530fdd1f1">https://www.hudl.com/video/3/15369028/6388011315f5a50530fdd1f1</a></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>St. Charles (Columbus)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Colin Greenhalge</strong>, DB, 2024 - Colin is a baller with a 3.8 GPA from a prestigious academic institution. He had 80 tackles this past season with 7 PBU's. He aligns at SS and plays deep in addition to down over 2. He reads plays correctly and uses proper backpedal technique. He can run with receivers deep in addition to closing quickly on the short routes. He is intelligent and runs complex coverages to perfection. He triggers quickly and makes plays at the LOS. I am impressed with his hustle all across the field. No matter where he starts is always around the ball. Colin is a can't miss prospect.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>HUDL: <a href="https://www.hudl.com/profile/14954694/Colin-Greenhalge">https://www.hudl.com/profile/14954694/Colin-Greenhalge</a></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
