The 6-foot-1, 190-pound prospect is ranked as one of the top safeties in Ohio, but he is also a strong prospect on offense as a receiver, where he can get open and get plenty of yards after contact. On defense, he is a thumper who can deliver heavy hits and takes great pursuit angles. He recorded 1,338 receiving yards and 28 touchdowns on offense last season, both school records, and had 67 tackles and three interceptions. The Wildcats have to be happy about landing his services.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1526768"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-69e3b086c5abb"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">I'm really impressed with [player_tooltip player_id='1526768' first='Collin' last='Boff'], who gave his verbal pledge to Bowling Green. The 6-foot-3, 225-pound quarterback has a very musuclar frame, built almost like a linebacker. What's remarkable however is that he is a quarterback with legitimate dual-threat ability and a very strong arm. Boff can hit receivers in stride, is very mobile to elude rushers, and can pull the trigger on the move. Boff had 2,734 yards, 26 touchdowns and a 63 percent completion percentage last season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1185731"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-69e3b086c5b0d"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">St. Ed's is always a program stacked with talent, and Paulouzzi is one of their top prospects. Syracuse is getting an explosive edge rusher, an off-ball linebacker in a 3-4 who knows how to rush the passer, be very disruptive, dip hi shoulder, turn the corner and wreck havoc on opposing quarterbacks. I love Paulozzi's ability to shed blocks, and he has a very high motor.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1628988"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-69e3b086c5b55"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">It's hard not to like [player_tooltip player_id='1628988' first='Mason' last='Cerovac'], who is taking the country roads to his new home of West Virginia. The Mountaineers are getting a hard-hitting linebacker with great closing speed and a nose for the ball. Cerovac takes great angles to the ball and his motor is undeniable.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1622979"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-69e3b086c5b9e"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">We've been high on [player_tooltip player_id='1622979' first='Reilly' last='Newman'] for a long time, and it's so easy to see why. The 6-foot-6, 290 pounder has a frame college coaches covet on the defensive line. While he aligns mostly as an edge, he could easily add some bulk and become a run-plugging interior defensive tackle with twitchy and power. Very instinctive defensive lineman who flows to the ball. The Iowa Hawkeyes are getting a huge addition to their defense.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
