He is a battering ram of a RB with speed, agility, and twitch. His vision is great making the right reads and cuts. He is tough to tackle and runs behind his pads. He has good quickness to evade tackles in the open field. He is fast and separates. He is garnering some interest and will only continue to get more.
Westerville North
Keylan Thrweatt, HB/WR, 2024 – Very much a hidden gem of the 2024 class. He will make his presence felt since not being able to compete last season. He stands 5’10 and weighs 205 with a ton of athleticism. His vision is very good with great burst in the secondary. As a bigger back he runs behind his pads and delivers blows. He has good twitch and is tough to tackle. I am impressed with his backfield route running. He gets open in the voids and burst up the field. His tape is of his JV season but recently started to impress at preseason 7 on 7’s.
Jonathan Stevens, RB, 2025 – JonJon is a stud and will be one of the best players in Central Ohio. His tape does not lie. He is fast, twitchy, and deadly with the ball in his hands. His jump cuts are outstanding making defenders miss easily. His vision is superb bursting to the second and third levels. Impressive ability to separate in the open field. He blocks well and isn’t afraid to get in the mix with LB’s and DL. His hands are like glue with good catch range. His academics are great and has offers from Duke and Northwestern.

Caden Piening Caden Piening 6'4" | 230 lbs | TE Anderson | 2025 State OH , TE/DE, 2025 – Caden is a 3 star TE prospect from football hotbed Cincinnati. Has D1 offers from Louisville, Boston College, and Purdue. His size is coupled with outstanding athleticism and blocking ability. His coaches align him to execute in many different areas. He has great ability to seal an edge with a reach block or work inside with the tackle on run away. His ability to swipe across the line and get inside kickout position on DE’s is superb. He runs good downfield routes and attacks the ball in the air. He is a matchup nightmare in the redzone. He can flex out and play from the slot. On defense his motor never stops. He has good quickness with his first two steps. He lockouts quickly with eyes in the backfield. Impressive ability to rush the passer. His best moves involve some type of speed rush with bend back the QB. His close on the scrambling QB is exemplary.
Mt Healthy
Jaimier Scott Jaimier Scott 6'1" | 180 lbs | ATH Mount Healthy | 2025 State OH , CB/WR, 2025 – Absolute stud on film. Has interest from some of the biggest schools in the country. He is a fun player to watch due to his outstanding versatility. He is called upon to be the hybrid player on defense based on the scheme that week. His knack for the ball is exemplary making many outstanding turnover plays this past season. He is patient with his reads, has excellent technique, and can make up ground in seconds. He high points the ball well and jumps out of the gym. He tackles with aggression at or behind the LOS. His trigger in the run/pass is like lightning. Looking forward to seeing how many Power 5 offers he will continue to get.
