<p>The Running Back position was the third position to sell out out with registrations for the upcoming Prep Redzone Next Middle School Combine on April 5th. Ball carriers from three different states (New Jersey, New York and Massachusetts) are signed up for the event. Including a pair of 2029 Running Backs (currently in eighth-grade) who already hold offers from Syracuse University. Below is a brief snap shot of the group.</p>

<li>Last saw him play live in September 2024, and after watching his season film, my thoughts remain the same that he's a bit of a throwback player. Tough Running Back/Linebacker combination. I look forward to seeing if/how he has increased his speed and agility.</li>

<li>Like fellow 2030 prospect [player_tooltip player_id='1196450' first='Carmelo' last='Foendoe'], Bredy was also an AYF Jersey Shore Conference All-Star selection. Bredy has the ATH/LB distinction because the kid is built like a Thoroughbred and he can play a number of positions. Absolutely physically impressive.</li>

<li>I don't typically say things like this, but I was <strong><em>very</em></strong> impressed by the film of Murillo, who is only in sixth grade. He checks all the boxes for me in the limited clips I've seen in terms of speed, explosion and body. I am lreally ooking forward to seeing the only 2031 RB signed up.</li>

The Running Back position was the third position to sell out out with registrations for the upcoming Prep Redzone Next Middle School Combine on April 5th. Ball carriers from three different states (New Jersey, New York and Massachusetts) are signed up for the event. Including a pair of 2029 Running Backs (currently in eighth-grade) who already hold offers from Syracuse University. Below is a brief snap shot of the group.
