Colleges view high schoolers as the final pieces to their puzzles in many cases.   Like most areas of life, change can be good and bad. It's a positive for seniors-to-be in that they have more time to develop and impress coaches at the next level.   Here's a group of guys capable of improving college rosters:    Schlosser was a bright spot for a Senior program that took its lumps in 2024. The junior paced the Rams with 59.0 tackles, 33 of which were of the solo variety. Schlosser illustrates how he produces during his <a href="https://www.hudl.com/video/3/17913503/671ff6723d5600e41bd35d12">11th-grade highlight video</a>. On it, he plays fast and flies to the football. Schlosser diagnoses plays well from his safety position, getting a good jump on the offense's plan. He's a sound tackler and operates with physicality. Schlosser works within the framework of the defense and carries out his assignments. While he's more advanced in stopping the run, there's also coverage skills that make him a complete defensive back.     Defeating Solon and Williamsburg in the same season isn't a feat many programs can claim. Benton pulled it off last season, and Nolan played a key role in a successful season for the Bobcats. He threw for five touchdowns and ran for five more. Nolan picked off two passes, returning one of them for a TD. He's a good athlete with a firm grasp on the game. The running ability and elusiveness Nolan displays on his <a href="https://www.hudl.com/video/3/18049736/675616fd806eb6501664fef0">junior highlight video</a> translates to position versatility. College scouts should picture where he'd fit best in their systems because Nolan has a chance to impact games on the next level, too.     Case Haub filled an important role for the Warriors as an 11th-grader in 2024. His production likely foreshadowed a breakout coming season. Case Haub racked up 326 yards (7.4 YPC) and six touchdowns as a backup running back. He added three receptions for 47 yards, and returned four kicks for 133 yards (33.2 YPR). The numbers highlight Case Haub's big-play ability. He's a threat to break one whenever the ball is in his hands as we see on his <a href="https://www.hudl.com/video/3/17793239/67acd076904de457c2d45ff6">junior highlight video</a>. He's effective carrying the rock up the middle, where he utilizes sharps cuts, downhill running and strong vision. Case Haub looks comfortable catching the ball and sometimes lines up out wide, where he can get into a route or take a handoff on a jet sweep.     After a junior year in which he caught 21 passes for 485 yards (23.1 YPC) and eight touchdowns, Augustine will be at the top of opponents' scouting reports in 2025. He looks up to the task when watching his <a href="https://www.hudl.com/video/3/17635386/67a178ad5a58f9b68adb7bf3">11th-grade highlight video</a>. A versatile performer, Augustine is a wide receiver-tight end hybrid for LeMars. The Bulldogs line him up in the slot, out wide and in-line. Augustine runs crisp routes, shows good speed and reliable hands. He's quick and athletic enough to gash defenses on jets sweeps, too. Size and strength make Augustine challenging to tackle in the open field. He's way under-recruited in relation to his skills right now.     Reed is an intriguing prospect. It takes imagination to project him on the next level when watching his<a href="https://www.hudl.com/video/3/17738998/672052a38c583051b4ac0e00"> junior highlight video</a>. First, he's wearing jersey No. 63 and catching passes, which is unusual. However, we see plenty of oddities when watching eight-player football. One thing is for sure, Reed can play the game. He caught 19 balls for 361 yards (19.1 YPC) and five touchdowns. On defense, he produced 31.0 tackles (17 solo, 7.5 TFL) and 2.0 sacks. His potential on both sides of the ball should be attracting more college programs. Watch the catch he makes in the first clip of his film. It illustrates the combination of size, physicality and athleticism. Just when you dream about his future at tight end, another clip shows him blowing up a play as a D-tackle. Reed should be receiving more love on the recruiting trail.     The Dodgers reached the Class 4A playoffs last season with Egli standing out as one of the their defensive leaders. He led the team in overall tackles (64.5) and solo stops (52), and ranked second in tackles for loss (8.0). For good measure, Egli returned two kicks for 116 yards and a touchdown. When we pop on his <a href="https://www.hudl.com/video/3/18015981/672ad509612a2a6625d78481">junior highlight video</a>, it provides evidence how he produced at such an impactful level. Egli is a versatile defender that lines up around the formation. He comes off the edge with explosion but also can run with receivers. Egli could fit as a safety in some college systems or work at linebacker in others.
