Hawk’s 2026 Western Pa Prospects Ready To Blow Up

<p>What's the deal my good folks! I'm here to spotlight some of the 2026 Western Pa prospects on the brink of blowing up. None of these prospects are unknown to this platform, and currently, one of these recruits [player_tooltip player_id='646684' first='Brendan' last='Alexander'], has an offer from Central Michigan. Similar to previous classes, I will continue to showcase both the offered and unoffered talented players in the 26′ class. This is the second group of young athletes in the 2026 class that will be featured, analyzed, and discussed by me, Hawk.</p>   <ul> <li>[player_tooltip player_id='684891' first='JuJu' last='Johnson'] </li> </ul>   <ul> <li>Zykir Moore </li> </ul>   <ul> <li>[player_tooltip player_id='402472' first='TyVaughn' last='Kershaw'] </li> </ul>   <ul> <li>[player_tooltip player_id='388092' first='Cameron' last='Walter'] </li> </ul>   <ul> <li>[player_tooltip player_id='402456' first='Matt' last='Sieg'] </li> </ul>   <ul> <li>[player_tooltip player_id='646684' first='Brendan' last='Alexander'] </li> </ul>   <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/jujujohnson03/status/1658682665443180546?s=46&t=Z9HVsIfxlYpUmBtFJHGC4g </div></figure>    <p></p>   <p><strong>HAWK'S OPINION:</strong></p>   <p>JuJu is a slippery athlete who runs the ball with toughness. He uses his blockers well and knows when to burst through running lanes. His speed is good, and he's always falling forward. It usually takes more than one person to bring him down due to his ability to make people miss. JuJu's elusiveness with the ball and his body control highlights his athleticism. His skillset screams return specialist, but punt returning in particular is made for jitterbugs like Johnson. JuJu's attributes and competitive edge are common traits for a DB as well. He showed vision and agility on a direct snap as he weaved through the defense before scoring against Wilmington.</p>   <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/moorezykir/status/1658178839967588363?s=46&t=Z9HVsIfxlYpUmBtFJHGC4g </div></figure>    <p></p>   <p><strong>HAWK'S OPINION</strong>:</p>   <p>Ziggy is another prospect who played big for his team as a freshman, making second-team all-conference. Zykir has big paws on a pup, at 6'2, 202 lbs, which means he has the frame to add bulk and maintain his effectiveness. He's quick off the ball, despite needing to adjust his stance a little for maximum explosion. Zykir plays with good hand violence that will continue to improve with weight training. He's an edge player who pressures OTs with speed and leverage, bending around the edge. He gives good effort in run action, further showcasing his capacity to redirect in pursuit. He's effective off the edge from a 2- or 3-point stance. I imagine Ziggy will be used in various roles on special teams this year for Head Coach Brian Tarrant.</p>   <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/kershawtyy/status/1597987694482694144?s=46u0026amp;t=Z9HVsIfxlYpUmBtFJHGC4g </div></figure>    <p></p>   <p><strong>HAWK'S OPINION:</strong></p>   <p>TyVaughn is a high-volume, high-production RB who has a knack for playmaking. He patiently uses his blockers to accelerate through holes on long gains. Kershaw runs well outside the tackles, but his compact build is suited for inside runs. He showcases speed and a controlled burst on homerun TDs. He has valuable experience early in his career, being the leader in big moments. Ty exhibits explosion and the ability to cut quickly off of one leg. His stop-and-go playmaking ability was displayed on a long kickoff return TD on his film. Kershaw has been in talks with Penn State, Old Dominion, Bowling Green, and Cal (Pa) without being offered.</p>   <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/pa_todaysports/status/1624981847045275651?s=46&t=Z9HVsIfxlYpUmBtFJHGC4g </div></figure>   <figure class="wp-block-table"><table><tbody><tr><td>Schools Interested:</td><td></td><td></td><td></td></tr><tr><td>West Virginia </td><td>Pitt</td><td>Syracuse</td><td>Michigan</td></tr><tr><td>Michigan State </td><td>Penn State </td><td>Central Michigan </td><td></td></tr></tbody></table></figure>    <p></p>   <p><strong>HAWK'S OPINION:</strong></p>   <p>Cameron is a prospect who demonstrates maturity beyond his years. As a QB in the class of 2026, he possesses Division 1 characteristics and is ready to start receiving offers. He has a strong arm and shows good mobility within the pocket. Despite being a decent athlete overall, he avoids fixating on specific targets and instead maintains awareness of the entire field. When faced with pressure, Cameron keeps his focus downfield, allowing him to make good improv decisions. He also showcases skills in distributing the ball effectively to all of his weapons. </p>   <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/matt_sieg/status/1643624448744931329?s=46&t=Z9HVsIfxlYpUmBtFJHGC4g </div></figure>   <figure class="wp-block-table"><table><tbody><tr><td>Schools Interested: </td><td></td></tr><tr><td>Ohio State </td><td>Penn State </td></tr><tr><td>Pitt</td><td>Syracuse </td></tr></tbody></table></figure>    <p><strong>HAWK'S OPINION:</strong></p>   <p>Matt is a dangerous dual-threat weapon that has to be accounted for. He possesses breakaway game and track speed, clocking in at a 10.92 laser 100-meter dash time. Obviously, he can accelerate, but he also displays short-area quickness, making defenders miss. He is a smart player, which is evident when he's playing QB or the safety position. Matt is very shifty; he's able to hit the corner with speed and produce a long TD. Sieg has a pretty strong throwing arm and is capable of completing passes downfield. At safety, he shows open-field tackling skills and toughness. He's competitive with ball skills and excels at tracking the football on the backend. Matt has the speed and toughness required to be a special teams beast. He's unoffered, but power fives like Ohio State, Syracuse, Penn State, and Pitt have all been in to see the talented '26 prospect.</p>   <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/brendanalex50/status/1658939728526209032?s=46&t=Z9HVsIfxlYpUmBtFJHGC4g </div></figure>   <figure class="wp-block-table"><table><tbody><tr><td>Total: 1</td></tr><tr><td>Central Michigan</td></tr></tbody></table></figure>    <p><br><strong>HAWK'S OPINION:</strong></p>   <p>Brendan is already nice-sized at 6'4, 260 lbs, and he's only going to get stronger and meaner. He's one of the most athletic FBS OL prospects I've seen on film in western PA this spring. Alexander is an assertive down blocker who consistently pancakes DL when he combo blocks. He displays good footspeed pulling and zone blocking. Brendan also showcases his short-area quickness and physicality, easily getting blocks on the LB. He's a good pass protector who's athletic enough to watch the QB's blindside. He's versatile, exhibiting the ability to also play OG at a starting level. It's really promising to see how he violently finishes blocking assignments as a freshman. BA recently picked up his first FBS offer from Central Michigan in the MAC.</p>
