He followed it up with a busy first two weeks of April, earning opportunities from Alabama on March 31 and Missouri on April 8.

The 6-foot-4, 220-pound recruit has picked up offers from Baylor, Texas, Texas A&amp;M, Texas Christian and Iowa. The staff is excited about his potential, and for good reason, and it is rare to see a Hoosier State prospect pick up so many offers after just one freshman season. He is, arguably, the top prospect the Class of 2029 for Indiana, although the next recruit on this list is going to give him a run for his money.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1881519"],"_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-69df8e56b58f9"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">East Noble linebacker [player_tooltip player_id='1881519' first='Austin' last='Phillips'] added an offer from Louisville following a conversation with Cardinals linebackers coach Adam Mueller. Phillips is an outstanding, hard-hitting linebacker with huge upside and potential. At 6-foot-2, 210 pounds, Phillips can fly to the ball. During his freshman season, he recorded 99 tackles, 13 tackles for loss, three sacks and eight QB hurries with 1,000+ yards of total offense.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1893441"],"_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-69df8e56b597b"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Missouri is the latest offer for top Carmel Class of 2028 safety [player_tooltip player_id='1893441' first='Drake' last='Coellner']. The Tigers offered on April 7, seeing his hard-hitting athleticism, instincts, twitch and speed all qualities that are too hard to ignore. Coellner has also taken visits to Clemson and Mississippi this month. He is one of the state's top 2028 prospects, and there's nothing stopping him from reaching No. 1.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
