The Florida native made an instant impact in Bellevue’s run heavy offense. At 5’11” 200 lbs. he’s got a strong well-built frame that excels running between the tackles. He’s quick to get downhill with a physical and aggressive running style. He presses the LOS flashing great contact balance and leg drive to break tackles in the box and extend to the second level. Carries the ball with leverage and like his ability to lower the shoulder to run through contact. Doesn’t run outside often but has the speed to turn the corner and run away from defenders once he finds space. Ran for over 1,100 yards with 18 touchdowns while also being voted to the PRZ All NW Underclassmen team. No offers yet but is one of the top 2026 RB’s in the state and should see a bump in his recruiting as the cycle progresses.
Highlights
At 6’0” 175 lbs. Keller is a plus athlete with a good combination of power and speed that allows him to move the chains both between the tackles and to the perimeter. Flashes good top end and breakaway speed in the open field. He’s a long strider that accelerates to top speed quickly. Like his field vision and ability to read blocks, he’s patient to allow the play to develop and then hits the hole hard. Shows he can catch the ball out of the backfield or lined up in the slot. Possesses a well-rounded skillset that can transition to multiple positions at the college level. Good potential and upside as he develops.
Highlights
The 6’1” 165 lb. QB out of Moses Lake had a breakout sophomore season that saw him throw for 3,250 yards with 48 touchdowns while completing almost 70% of his passes landing him numerous post season accolades and putting him amongst the top 2026 QBs in the state. He’s a natural passer that can be accurate to all three levels of the field. Like his ability to mix up velocities, can zip one into a tight window at the short and intermediate levels or throw with touch to stretch the field vertically. At his size he’s got a strong arm that possesses an accelerated over the top release with good extension that allows him to get the ball out quickly. Does a good job manipulating pressure and moving the pocket to buy time and extend the play while he finds an open receiver. The dual sport athlete (football/basketball) has tons of upside.
Highlights
Sophomore season got cut short by injury but showed out when he was healthy and landed first team all league. 6’1” 180 lbs. with good length and natural ball skills. Does a good job creating separation flashing great spatial awareness to find and exploit the soft spot in coverage. Explosive after the catch, he’s got good speed and elusiveness in the open field and runs hard to be a tough tackle for secondary defenders. Auburn is creative in how they get him the ball, in addition to being a route runner they will flip it out to him on screens or run him on fly sweeps to get him into space. Has a strong foundational skillset to build on and will be a big time weapon for Auburn over the next two seasons when he’s healthy.
