Continue ReadingCANADA– Last night we made sure to focus on at least one prospect from every major Canadian hotbed province and today, we do the same by featuring six more prospects in the 2024 and 2025 classes that have made some splashes in their mid-season tapes and game tape we saw.
Kohen Bohnet Kohen Bohnet 6'5" | 185 lbs | QB George McDougall | 2025 State CAD , QB, George McDougall, AB (2025) Twitter
Kohen is a quarterback prospect that has intriguing upside with his instinctive mobility that can get out of the backfield and use his legs for first downs. He consistently has to work outside of the pocket with his throws but shows off elusiveness to still make solid touch throws out of the backfield. At 6’4 175 pounds, he shows off catchy throwing angles that although usually off balance while under pressure, he still can make plays with his vision within his throws. The change of direction agility this kid has certainly shows off as one that with some development could play at the next-level.
Adil Akbar Adil Akbar DB North Shore | 2027 CAD , DB, North Shore, QC (2025) Twitter
Adil is a prospect that showed off intensive ball-tracking ability on tape a couple weeks ago for the North Shore Mustangs. He also shows off fundamental vision when climbing up a level to assist in stopping the run, as this 6’1 160 pound defensive back shows off agile feet even as a 2025 prospect with versatility development that will continue to grow. This kid’s footwork shows off ambiguous change of direction with a growing trigger with his release that has a handful of years to get even swifter than he already is. With his length, I expect Adil to become a stockriser in this upcoming 2026 class.
Raimond Rasoulzadehyazdi, OL/DL, Carson Graham, BC (2024) Twitter

If you are a college program looking for a British Columbia prospect that finishes in the trenches, you are going to want to look at 6”1 280 pound offensive guard Raimond Rasoulzadehyazdi out of Carson Graham. This young man gets some outstanding leverage and in my eyes plays mightily bigger than those measurables with how much control he shows off with his hands and pad-level. He is a mauler getting his blocker into the second level and does that on a consistent basis on his mid-season tape. He also shows off solid footwork with agility that works well at the point of attack. Raymond is a prospect without an offer yet which makes me thoroughly surprised.
River Wynands, LB, Oak Park, MB (2024) Twitter
River is a linebacker prospect that pops out especially with the strong motor he plays with all over the field for Grant Park. River shows off a determined linebacker that can play from sideline to sideline as you will constantly see him pop out from the inside to the edges of the field to provide extra help running down the ball carrier. Even on special teams, River shows off a prospect that works his tail off as a linebacker prospect that can develop his instincts with the rest of the season to attack quicker within the first level.
Spencer Remple, ATH, Campbell Collegiate, SK (2024) Twitter
Spencer is an undersized athlete that plays with a whole lot of instinct no matter which side of the football he lines up on. He shows off an enlightening ball-tracking ability at the safety position especially on longer routes with his great vision he shows off at 5’10 160 pounds. He is also a weapon in Campbell’s return game as a prospect that plays with well-balanced vision and patience that is a playmaker with his agility and burst. His best fit positionally certainly shows off at free safety at the next-level as he showed off persistence as a defensive back prospect that does well on a island as an open field tackler.
Garin Roles, ATH/WR, London Catholic Central, ON (2024) Twitter
Garin shows off what you look for in a prospect that is a swiss-army knife on all three levels of the football field. Last week against Parkland, Garin showed off some elusiveness in the open field with his 6’0 190 pound frame utilizing his vision to get into the end zone. Defensively, Garin is a solid ball-tracker that without a doubt will be a defensive back that has the football IQ with his positioning to know exactly where to be, in which he showed off with his interception on tape of a DB prospect that showed off plenty of instincts. This kid is another prospect with a excellent work ethic as he will be the one in the secondary to chase down a ball carrier downfield with his long strides of athleticism. A 2024 prospect that should attract some next-level attention with all the skillsets he can offer.
