2025 Linebacker Follow Up

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>There are some linebackers in this class who are ready to rock out on the field. The process for them has been worth it. We have seen some guys commit. We expect to see more 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 guy that we have been mentioning since last season. We knew that it would not be long before he saw his stock rise. This is a dude that has been known to be a pest for teams. He is a true run stopper that knows how to step up and fill holes. We also know that Henderson has the ability to step up and be a big factor in coverage as well. This is a guy that has a lot of talent. He is a versatile linebacker. Henderson has committed to Southern Miss.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1351207' first='Jaylon' last='Moore']</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Moore is another linebacker from Oak Grove that we like a lot. He is committed to Southern Miss. He decided to stay home just like Henderson. Moore is another guy that is a field general out there. You will see him coming up to make some very solid tackles from his linebacker position. This is a guy who is 212 pounds. He has been a stud in this defense for a very long time. You will not see him shying away from making a big play.</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 is a guy that has been getting better for a long time. He ran a 4.57 at the Under Armour Combine in Nashville. This is a guy that knows how to cover as well as step up and make big hits. Ruffin has good hips as well. Some schools have been taking a look at him for the safety position. He is one of those guys that can help his team out a lot in plenty of different places on defense. He also does not mind making a few big hits.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>TayQuon McKinney</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>McKinney was recently named a Max Preps All-American. This is a kid that has a big future in front of him. He is going to be out there getting ready to do some big things again this season. You do not want to see him coming from the edge getting ready to sack your quarterback. McKinney is a quick guy that has good speed. We think that he has a good chance to be able to be a dog or rover safety on the next level.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
