Looking through the roster and the soon to be senior Class of 2024, you can expect both of those to continue this fall. We love looking into these programs that have talent for every level of college football, and Muskego is one of those programs. Let’s check out the top names to know!
Ashton Krause
Ashton Krause
Ashton is an exciting prospect who will debut well in the rankings during our next update. The 6’2″ 195 lbs RB has a bright future that includes the talent to be a prospect at multiple positions. As a junior, Krause dominated as an RB. His vision and long speed created big play after big play. His natural instincts allowed him to see plays as they were developing. That gave him the chance to always keep himself in the proper position to make big plays. Watching him on tape, you also get a feel that he could have a future on the defensive side of the ball. Those instincts, field vision, and range could shine at the LB or safety positions. Ashton’s versatility should have the next level very excited. Definitely a high level prospect to know and follow over the next year.
One of the top uncommitted 2024 TEs in Wisconsin is the 6’4″ 215 lbs athlete out of Muskego. Krause is a true mismatch nightmare for defenses. He can line up out wide or inline. His release and acceleration allow him to eat up cushion and get off the line quickly. It instantly puts pressure on the LB or DB trying to cover him. From there, the long striding TE has the speed to outrun defenders deep as well as the body control and footwork to run clean routes to open up separation for his QB. Aiden also does a good job of attacking the ball in the air, especially when in traffic. Teams looking to bolster the receiving threat at their TE position need to have Aiden on their radars.
The 5’10” 170 lbs RB is going to be a key piece to the Muskego running game this fall. As a junior he put up over 500 yards on the ground, and his impact should climb from there. Max is at his best when he gets the ball out in space. Muskego did that in 2022 by utilizing him on sweeps as well as kick and punt return. In those scenarios Schneider is able to use his vision to see how the defense and blocks are developing in front of him. From there, Max sets up his blocks and accelerates through gaps before defenders can close on him. I’m excited to see the big plays he creates this fall. There is definitely breakout potential here.

The 6’1″ 190 lbs LB is undersized, but it is hard to overlook the talent. Jack is gifted with light, quick feet. Feet that allow him to quickly maneuver and change direction in tight quarters. That is key when playing between the tackles. He can get through teh trash and close on the ball carrier quickly to end plays before they can develop or get to the line of scrimmage. Jack also has the speed to run sideline to sideline. His acceleration is next level as well. in a step or two he can be flying downhill at full speed. Jack is for sure a next level talent. He will be an exciting chess piece for a DC at the next level.

I have began to find more and more long snappers as of late. The 5’11” 200 lbs long snapper out of Muskego is the latest find. This fall I want to see the development of the velocity in his snaps, but Jack is a consistent and accurate snapper. In both the punt game and extra point unit, Jack delivers a nice spiral. If he can continue to get his velocity up, especially in the punt game, Jack can work his way into a next level prospect.
