Continue ReadingA second wave of heat hit Alexander Haskell Alexander Haskell 6’4″ | 240 lbs | DL St. Joseph’s Prep | 2026 State PA early this Winter. Haskell received scholarship offers out of Akron, Boston College, Indiana, and Duke through the first couple of months the new year. We like Haskell to be a 20-25 offer guy, I’m expecting this Spring and Summer to open new doors that should lead to that level of recruiting status. A current top ten 2026 prospect in PA, a kid who has a top-five ceiling matched with a Top 20 floor. In a loaded class of 2026, Haskell will likely stand as one of the sure-fire blue-chip prospects of Pennsylvania. If you see Haskell’s name on roster at one of your camps, just do yourself a favor and circle his name immediately. He’s going to impress you ten out of ten times. Likely the best EDGE rushing prospect PA will have to offer a year from now, period.
If you see Jackson Samuels Ford Jackson Samuels Ford 6’5″ | 235 lbs | TE Malvern Prep | 2026 State PA ‘s name on roster, make note of him immediately. If the Malvern Prep, top-ranked 2026 TE attends your camp, be sure to highlight his name, you won’t regret it. 6’5, 230, TE skills strapped to a build that could transition well to the DL/OL. The type of prospect coaches at the FBS-level drool over, a moldable young man who hasn’t reached half of his potential yet. Knowing who is developing him, knowing some of the goals he and his family have placed on himself, Ford is likely to be an automatic offer this time next year. I stress coaches to see his athletic profile and potential and pull the trigger early, particularly this offseason when he begins camping at college circuits.
Highlights
Charles Belser Charles Belser 6’2″ | 215 lbs | LB Imhotep Charter | 2026 State PA is another FBS lock on this list. Already securing offers out of Penn State and Indiana, if you see the Imhotep LB/ATH name come across your roster list, be sure to note that he’s an offerable prospect TODAY. 6’2, 215, a cut-up, lean build, Belser is next in line to get worked and developed by the trusted front-seven coaches stationed at Imhotep Charter. You can bet that Belser is going to take a leap in terms of weight gain and mental this off-season. Another year of development should equal another off-season of next-level opportunities. We saw a wave come through with two Big10 programs pulling the trigger. A good camp circuit run this Spring/Summer and you’ll see the likes of Akron, Temple, and possibly other BIG10 schools come through to offer the LB a scholarship. A top 25 prospect and a top three linebacker among his 2026 peers.
In Ezekiel Bates’ case, it’s not as easy to show up to a camp and have coaches immediately flocking to your drill. He isn’t a 6’5, 230 EDGE rusher or OLB. He isn’t a 6’6 OL with flexible hips. Bates is a back, a damn good one, a top-five back in his class at that. Bates is going to have to impress as a tester, and for my knowledge, the young man is as seasoned and ready to work as anyone in the state. 5’11, 195, great grades while being coaches by a staff with an extensive track record. Kent State pulled the trigger on Bates back in December, they see what we see, a back who is likely to trend upwards in terms of recruiting traction this coming Spring/Summer. If you see Bates on roster, circle his name. A lock for FCS attention, especially if his grades are well off. Carries a G5 grade, I wouldn’t be surprised to see P5s reach out at some point in his career either.
Likely the best unoffered 2026 on my list. 6’4, 200 pounds, a build he carries well, a build that is likely to draw attention throughout collegiate circuits this offseason. Tape to back it up, I’ve been pounding the table for Wiggins behind the scenes, sending his name to coaches throughout the FCS and FBS level. All with good feedback, I’m under the impression coaches want to see him work under a microscope at their camp. Watching him run, test, and compete could be the nail in the coffin that leads to his first opportunity to play collegiate football. I stress patience here, one offer could lead to a snowball from competitors.
Highlights
Elijah Burnely has stepped onto the PA recruiting scene, catching the attention of the Akron staff as the program made it’s way in and around Philly. There’s a lot to like. 6’4, 275, DL tape and experience, yet I’d imagine some programs want to explore his capabilities at OL. Camping could shoot this young mans stock through the roof. Seeing what his limbs look like, seeing how he moves in a testing environment, catching a glimpse at Burnley the competitor. 3.4 GPA, I know some coaches are waiting on substantial tape out of the 2026 top ten DL, yet his sophomore tape, matched with superb performances in front of coaches could be enough to have Burnley hot on the recruiting trail by September 1st. You see Cheltenham’s Burnley on roster, circle his name.
