<p class="text-gray-700">Tough tailback who finishes forward on contact.t. Undersized but has time to grow. Also a linebacker on defense who can flow to the ball and hit. Picked up an offer from Kent State. See how he grows and develops over the next few years.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Two-way prospect. Solid running back on offense; defensively at linebacker where he is a good tackler. Takes very good angles to ballcarriers and wraps up. Flows to the ball well. Recorded 80 tackles and five sacks and two forced fumbles last season on defense; had 1,200 yards rushing and 126 receiving yards on offense.</p>

<!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} -->
<p class="text-gray-700">Needs to work on balance, but is a solid interior guard who can move and run. Physical blocker; almost hits like a linebacker. Good inside hand placement and strike timing, good first step, strong leg drive and runs feet on contact. Can drive defenders off the ball. Good blocker in space, can hit a moving target effectively at the second level.</p>

<!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} -->
<p class="text-gray-700">A bit big for a defensive end - he's built more like an offensive tackle - but he makes it work. Very good upper body strength and bulk. Stout as a run defender, can hold the point and be hard to move just due to his size and mass. High academic prospect who earned offers from Wheeling and Indianapolis.</p>
