2025 Linebacker Follow Up Part 2

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>This class has some great talent. There are some guys in this bunch that we need to talk about today. There are some players with great skills that we think are going to see their stock rising soon. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='920466' first='Malachi' last='Henderson']</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Henderson is a dog that knows how to fill holes. We also think that Henderson is a guy that is going to do great in coverage. We are expecting to see him make a lot of big plays later this year during the season. Henderson is a guy that has great athleticism. He is one of the best players on the Oak Grove team. Henderson should start to see some offers rolling in his way this year. He is a guy to know.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='762056' first='Zach' last='Ruffin']</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Ruffin has seen himself pick up a couple of offers in the past weeks. Ruffin was recently clocked at a 4.57 in the 40-yard dash at the Under Armour Combine. Ruffin has been getting looks at the linebacker and defensive back positions. We know that he does not mind coming up to make tackles. That is one reason why schools are looking at him for linebacker. Plus, he has a wide wingspan. He has the body to hold another 30 pounds easily.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>TayQuon McKinney</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>McKinney is a linebacker that has made a big name for himself at Louisville. Last season, McKinney had 23 sacks. McKinney is a 5-foot-10, 180-pound guy that we are keeping a close eye on his weight. We think that he also has the potential to be safety or a nickel back. This young man has a lot of talent and needs to be talked about a lot more. He is one of the guys from this class that college coaches need to be keeping up with.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1127558' first='JaCari' last='Owens']</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Owens recently picked up an offer to Mississippi Valley State University. This guy is a baller that loves to make contact with people. He loves to come up and make big hits. Coaches are excited to keep an eye on him. He has received some power five interests from Ole Miss. They are going to be keeping a close eye on his growth. Owens is a guy that knows how to get out in space and cover as well.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
