Rupp is one of the top returning defensive lineman in the state of Idaho this upcoming season. He has the rare ability to convert speed to power. A player with an advanced tool bag at such a young age, Rupp is able to really set up offensive lineman with a variety of moves and counters. He has tremendous quickness for a player of his size and does an excellent job slanting so fast that lineman sometimes cant even get a hand on him. He sets the edge and plays with a very high motor and is name to keep an eye on as he goes into his junior year.

Highlights
Powers is a stout defender in the middle of the defense with his ability to really plug up gaps and dominant double teams. A player with a really good frame that is built solid and is hard to move at the point of attack. He shows the ability to split double teams and does a really good job with his push up the middle. As he begins to add moves to his bull rush he will be a hard defensive tackle to stop in the middle on friday nights.

Newman is a long athlete with some plus attributes that really translate well to the defensive line. He has a long frame that allows him to really create separation at the point of attack. He has good speed that allows him to bend the edge and effect the passer on almost every play. He also shows very good instincts and plays with a tremendous motor. A player to watch this upcoming season for sure and a player well will be keeping a very close eye on.
