Continue ReadingSo the original plan was to run a 10-part series on top uncommitted Class of 2025 prospects. It would highlight 50 seniors-to-be as they navigate May and June, two incredibly important months for recruits who play host to college coaches at their high schools, take campus visits and work out at summer camps for scouts. The idea was to get them as much exposure as possible during this period.
Turns out, there are more than 50 out there. How many? We’ll find out when we run out of names we find that should be noticed.
You can check out the first 10 parts of the series HERE. It’s the 10th installment with links to all of the others. Part XI is HERE.
Here’s a look at five more student-athletes:
Khalil Hussien Khalil Hussien 6'4" | 250 lbs | OL Des Moines North | 2025 State IA , DL/OL, Des Moines North
Hussien’s most likely position on the next level is defensive line. That said, colleges liking him on the other side of the ball wouldn’t be surprising. He’s a big, strong, athletic student-athlete with a bright future on the football field.
When viewing Hussien’s junior highlight video, we witness a force up front. The 6-foot-4, 240-pound senior-to-be is coming off a junior season that saw him pile up 7.0 tackles for loss and 5.0 sacks with a punt block.
Hussien succeeds with good discipline on the defensive line. He understands his assignments and carries them out. He makes plays on the edge but also delivers when lining up inside. The versatility to stand up or put his hand in the dirt opens up possibilities on the next level. Again, that could be on the O-Line.
D-II Lincoln University of Missouri reportedly offered Hussien a scholarship as has NAIA Peru State. He attended a junior day at Northern Iowa in March, and has been invited to summer camps at South Dakota State, North Dakota, South Dakota and Southwest Minnesota State.
Aiden Stensrud Aiden Stensrud ATH Lake Mills | 2025 State IA , DE, Lake Mills
Sioux Falls has offered Stensrud (6-4, 230) a scholarship. He visited Iowa for a spring practice in March, the Hawkeyes came by his high school last week, and he’s been invited to camp with the program next month. He also stopped at Northern Iowa for an April visit, and North Dakota was at Lake Mills this month and has invited him to its camp, as has South Dakota State.
You can see why all these schools are interested in Stensrud when popping on his junior highlight video. It’s a solid frame with athleticism that allowed him to average more than 15 points and nine rebounds a game in basketball this past winter. He also throws the discus and shot put for the track team.
On the gridiron, Stensrud stands out on both sides of the ball. He’s chases down quarterbacks and running backs with that aforementioned athleticism. He understands the importance of setting an edge and funneling the play inside. He’s intriguing as a tight end, too.
Stensrud has the look of a small-town Iowa kid that shows out at summer camps and picks up opportunities. He comes from a long line of success stories in this sport.
Jack Krull Jack Krull 6'3" | 215 lbs | DL Central Lyon/George-Little Rock | 2025 State IA , DE, Central Lyon/George-Little Rock
Krull (6-3, 215) is sometimes overshadowed being in program annually producing college talent. Colleges should get on board now before more attention comes his way with graduation losses for the Lions.
NAIA’s Northwestern College reportedly has a scholarship offer out to Krull. The Raiders, South Dakota State, South Dakota, Augustana University and others have invited him to summer camps.
Krull shows us on his junior highlight video what scouts at the next level like about his game. He covers a lot of ground, sideline to sideline as a defensive end. He’s explodes off the of the edge and does a nice job of keeping the play in front of him. He can shed multiple blocks with physicality and violent hands.
On the bench press, Krull reports pushing 255 pounds and getting eight reps on 185. He lists his squat at 395, 415 on his deadlift and a clean of 270. In football, he’s coming off a season that saw him accumulate 16.0 tackles for loss and 11.0 sacks.

knows how to tote the rock. The Jaguar senior-to-be is looking to build on an 11th-grade season that saw him average 6.6 yards per carry and score eight touchdowns on the ground. He’s also a threat as a receiver as evidenced by his 31 catches for 354 yards and four scores in ’23.

‘s game. The 5-11, 185-pounder ran on Centennial’s state champion 4×200-meter relay team last week in Des Moines. He checks in at 22.72 seconds at that distance and 11.21 in the 100. He reports running the 40-yard dash in 4.5 and a vertical jump of 33 inches.
That quickness shines through when viewing his junior highlight video. While sharing backfield work with Northern Illinois-bound Elijah Porter last fall, Jackson shines as a runner that hits the hole hard and gets to top speed quickly. He’s patient in allowing blocks to set up and usually sees the best route to run.
Jackson visited junior day at the University of Iowa in February after camping with the Hawkeyes last summer. He attended an Iowa State game last fall and was invited to junior days at Northern Iowa and North Dakota State.

, ATH, PCM
Robbins (5-10, 180) is an interesting prospect who could end up playing on either side of the ball at the next level. He’s also a student-athlete that’s going to add value on special teams. He reports running the 40-yard dash in 4.6 seconds, bench pressing 225 pounds and deadlifting 405.
At last year’s state track meet, Robbins was part of a champion shuttle hurdle relay team. He also was a member of the squad that won an indoor title in that event back in March.
Robbins plays the game hard, as we see during his junior highlight video. He shows a really good feel for running ball and does a wonderful job weaving his way through traffic. Robbins sees the field well, patiently waiting for a hole to open or creating one himself. He cuts sharply, shaking defenders with lateral quickness. He’s a reliable receiver, too, and might be considered as a defensive back in college with his skills.
Northern Iowa played host to Robbins for a junior day visit in April, and he attended a game at North Dakota State last season. He’s been invited to camps at Montana, Sioux Falls and elsewhere next month.
