Dublin Coffman
Preston Scott, LB, 2024 – Preston is outstanding and reminds me of Fred Warner from the 49ers. He is big, athletic, and really physical. He plays MLB and commands the defense. His play reading ability is advanced and he is always around the ball. He is patient between the tackles maintaining his gaps at all times. He gets to lockout quickly and sheds blockers easily. He can run sideline to sideline with proper ball leverage. His pass drops are on time and in the correct areas. He possesses great ball skills and attacks the underneath throws. His tackling is aggressive with good hip drive and wrap. Deserves a good look for scholarship football.

He is really fun to watch on film being one of the best players in Central Ohio. He is extremely athletic with the ball in his hands. He pulls away like a track star running the 100. He has open field wiggle and twitch. He is patient to the hole with outstanding burst once it opens up. He runs behind his pads due to his 6’1 frame. He plays out of the slot where he runs Jet Sweeps with lightning speed. On defense he caps the middle of the field at FS. He has impressive eye discipline reading plays. His trigger is very fast getting downhill quickly or making a play on the ball in the air. He tackles really well with toughness. Jonathan is a Power 5 talent.
Ronald Jackson Ronald Jackson 6'0" | 170 lbs | QB Westerville North | 2025 State OH , QB, 2025 – Ronald is super talented and works with one of the best QB coaches in the Ohio. He comes from great pedigree and is a rising star in Central Ohio. He has great mechanics in his lower body and with his throws. He puts tight spin and velocity on his throws. He fits the ball into tight windows and can make all the throws. He has an impressive fade and seam throw with touch. He reads the full field and appears to be heady in the pocket. He is a deadly runner and makes defenses have to account for his feet. Ronald will be a Power 5 player.
Big Walnut
Carter Dancer, WR, 2025 – Rising star amongst the stars for Big Walnut. Carter is tall at 6’1 and very athletic. He is a two sport rising star for the Eagles. He played a combo of JV/Varsity this season and excelled. He was a special teams dynamo for the Varsity squad. He was always one of the first ones down the field on KO. At WR he is twitchy and fast. He can beat you off the LOS or run by you when you are off. He runs precise routes with good top end snap back. He catches everything including the bad balls with soft hands. He is a good blocker and runs his feet through the whistle. Very good football player with a lot of room to be the best.
