I will continue to cover both offered and unoffered talent that, in my opinion, are college-bound prospects in the 2025 class. Presently, one of these student-athletes, Alex Tatsch Alex Tatsch 6'3" | 210 lbs | LB Greater Latrobe | 2025 State PA , has received two FBS offers from UConn and Marshall.

Highlights
HAWK’S OPINION:
Tucker is active on the field, playing with high intensity. He shows agility shedding blockers and pursuing the ball carrier. He’s energetic with sound instincts and plays from sideline to sideline. He shows urgency and strength, locking out defenders at the point of attack. He’s a good tackler in space and has the speed to catch specialists if they break free. He’s a good zone dropper that has a strong understanding of how to defend his area. His speed and athleticism are further seen in the way he’s able to play man coverage, whether on the slot or RBs running wheel routes out of the backfield. Lloyd is regular on special teams and seemingly will be in college as well. He’s been in contact with Pitt, WVU, Wake Forest, UMass, and Fordham.
Julius Green
Julius Green
HAWK’S OPINION:
Green is an athlete that I like as a DB on the college level. He’s a reliable tackler who isn’t afraid to come up and hit from the Safety position. He breaks on the ball well and doesn’t step outside of his body frame to do so. His route and play recognition will translate well to playing DB in college. Julius competes for contested passes when he has the opportunity. He runs the alley aggressively and plays with a low pad level. He showcases body control when stopping and going while running the football on offense. Green will be a good special teams player capable of being on multiple units at the next level. So far, a couple of FBS programs have talked to Green without offering him yet.

Hunter Albright
Hunter Albright
HAWK’S OPINION:
Hunter is an XL D1 prospect at 6’6″, 320 pounds, but he’s also light on his feet. He looks comfortable in his stance, displaying flexibility with good bend. He’s a good pass protector who’s skilled at mirroring the pass rusher. You can see Albright’s mobility when he’s pulling on tape. He displays sound O-lineman footwork kick-sliding against seemingly more athletic DEs. He’s physical, often pancaking or driving defenders out of the picture on his film. He shows agility in zone blocking and getting blocks on the second level. Once again, OTs are hard to find, especially the well-coached ones like Hunter. He’s strong with a good punch and impressive short-area quickness for his size. He’s a hard worker who regularly finishes plays assertively, going until the whistle. Power 5 programs such as Georgia, Penn State, Virginia Tech, and Syracuse have been in contact with Albright.
HAWK’S OPINION:
As a sophomore, you can tell he was one of the leaders of the team. Eric shows playmaking ability on both sides of the football. He has the speed to hit a home run at any time when he has the ball. He gashes defenses on inside runs due to his strength and vision. Eric runs with patience, doing a good job at stretching and accelerating on outside rushes. He’s an athlete who’s skilled at putting his foot in the ground and changing direction at full speed. With his sturdy 6’0″, 205-pound frame, he’s a tough RB to bring down. Defensively, he’s a blitzer capable of dislodging people from the ball. He even showed good route recognition and ball skills on a pick-6 INT on tape. Eric is already built for special teams with a lot of time left for improvement. He’s still looking for his first offer, but Pitt has been keeping a close eye on him.

HAWK’S OPINION:
Alex plays with a lot of dawg in him. He flat out lays the wood when he hits people. He’s a relentless blitzer who pass rushes with good speed and aggression. He looks very similar to Cole Sullivan Cole Sullivan 6'3" | 210 lbs | LB Pittsburgh Central Catholic | 2024 State PA in the 2024 class. He displays athletic ability in run pursuit. He doesn’t allow run plays to stretch outside of him at OLB. His strength and physicality are too great for average WRs to stock block. He’s a great open-field tackler with a top-notch motor. He’s good at blitzing off the edge or from LB depth. He’s shown speed and body control running the football on offense. Alex also exhibits ball skills, receiving passes with soft hands at the WR and RB positions. Obviously, Tatsch will be great for special teams in college. Alex has 2 FBS offers from UConn and Marshall.
