Recruiting Report: Five KC Area Athletes Add Offers

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Kansas continues to be a hotbed for college recruiting.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Every time I log on to X, I find more athletes announcing that they have received college offers.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Profiles have been created for each athlete and will be added to the rankings later this summer.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Athletes are encouraged to claim their Prep Redzone profiles by using the following link&nbsp;<a href="https://prepredzone.com/prospect-index/">https://prepredzone.com/prospect-index/</a></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1672710' first='Evan' last='Stull'],</strong> RB/DL, 6'0”, 235, Olathe East, ‘26</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Stull is one of several Kansas athletes to announce recent offers from Benedictine. The first words that went through my head watching Stull's film were literally “Oh My Gosh.” This kid lined up in the backfield reminds me of Craig Heyward, Jerome Bettis, and William Perry. He is a load to tackle. I have no idea what the Ravens see as his future position, but this young man is fast and is a bowling ball. I would not be surprised if Division II and JUCO coaches don't jump in on this young man. I don't think there is any chance he plays for an NAIA program.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1672694' first='Brody' last='Hale'],</strong> DB, 5'11”, 170, Olathe West, '26</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Hale announced that he has received an offer from Independence Community College. Hale is explosive and is a fantastic pass rusher. He moves like he was fired out of a cannon. He finishes his tackles and could play linebacker based on his future growth.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1672705' first='Max' last='Manske'],</strong> OL, 6'8”, 255, St. Thomas Aquinas, ‘26</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Manske is a Mountain of a Man and has announced receiving an offer from MidAmerica Nazarene. I am super impressed with the speed he has for his size. He can play tackle or guard. He has the size to play tackle, but the speed to be a pulling guard. I would not be surprised that with his length and speed combination, if he were to be moved to the defensive side of the ball in college to be an edge rusher.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1672707' first='Pete' last='Izzo'],</strong> OL/DL, 6'0”, 265, Olathe East, ‘26</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Izzo plays center for Olathe East. The term pancake block might have been made just for him. He has received an offer from Bethany College. &nbsp;He has a low center of gravity and gets off the ball well. This would be a great in-state signing for the Swedes, but I expect him to get plenty more offers.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1672711' first='Miguel' last='Torrealba'],</strong> DL, 6'4”, 235, Blue Valley Northwest, ‘26</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The Benedictine coaching staff has also given an offer to Blue Valley Northwest's Torreabla. He has the physicality to play as a defensive tackle and the speed to move to the edge. He also wrestles, which has impacted his balance and his understanding of the importance of leverage in the trenches.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
