Tyrell Averhart Tyrell Averhart 6’2″ | 255 lbs | DL Hewitt Trussville | 2024 State AL is a super talented member of Hewitt Trussville’s defensive front and has steadily gotten better each year. Averhart plays at DT, and can explode off the line of scrimmage to equally impact the run and pass in big ways. Averhart has a ton of power, burst, strong hands, and can wrap up and tackle extremely well. All of this shows up on the stat sheet too- last fall Averhart posted up 85 total tackles (22.5 of those for loss), 6 sacks, 19 hurries, and even an interception! Heading into his senior year, Averhart is most definitely a guy to watch- he recently picked up offers from Alabama State and UT Martin and is sure to be adding more!
Michael Igbinoghene Michael Igbinoghene 5’11” | 170 lbs | DB Hewitt Trussville | 2025 State AL is a super talented DB prospect that made a ton of huge plays in the secondary last fall for Hewitt Trussville. Brother of former Auburn Tiger and current Miami Dolphin, Noah Igbinoghene, Michael plays with a lot of the same skills. Igbinoghene is lighting fast, his speed and ability to cover WRs and track the ball is really next to none- he’s always going to find a way to make plays on the ball. In addition to that, he doesn’t shy away from contact and can get around the field to make tackles effeciently. Igbinoghene has a really great skill set already, and were going to have to keep track of him heading into this fall! He currently lists offers from Florida State, Arkansas, Marshall.
Jackson Cooper Jackson Cooper 6’3″ | 310 lbs | DL Tuscaloosa Academy | 2025 State AL is a super talented member of Tuscaloosa Academy’s defensive front and has a huge year ahead of him this fall. Last year was somewhat of a breakout season for Cooper, he had a big year with 58 total tackles (25.5 for loss) and 6 sacks. Cooper is a big dude, and plays with that physicality really well- he imposes his will on offensive linemen with his size, power, strength, and quickness all four quarters of the game. It doesn’t matter if he’s playing the interior or on the edge, Cooper will find a way to either create pressure or stop the run! Recently, Cooper has picked up offers from North Alabama and Samford!
