This is my final preview where I give my evaluation of some of the players who will be participating. These evaluations will be brief, but I hope will give an idea of what kind of traits I’ll be looking for when we get a chance to see them workout.
2026 LB Raymir Coney (Fairfield) 6’2 190- Coney is an explosive athlete. He’s creative and how he uses his athleticism to avoid blockers and pursue. He uses his hands and sheds well.
2025 LB Easton Hill (Hamilton Township) 6’0 210- Hill plays with strong instincts in both run and pass defense. He gets downhill quickly. He has the hands to the interception when it’s there and the speed to take it back.
2025 ATH Nathan Dismuke (Mansfield Senior) 5’10 170- Nathan lines up at both wide receiver and safety for the Tygers. He’s a playmaker on both sides of the ball. He has strong short space quickness that translates at both positions. On defense he is instinctive and has good ball skills. He’s also not afraid to deliver a blow.
2026 LB Reid Baker (Anderson) 6’0 190- Baker is an explosive and versatile linebacker. In the run game he gets downhill quick and tunnels well. In the pass game he can run with TE’s and RB’s.
2026 LB Nolan Ogburn Nolan Ogburn 6'2" | 210 lbs | ATH Archbishop Alter | 2026 OH (Alter) 6’2 210- Ogburn plays on the line of scrimmage. He has a strong burst off of the snap. He can crash the backfield and he can set the edge.
2026 LB Dezmond Porter (Harvest Prep) 6’0 220- Porter has a well put together frame for a sophomore. He runs sideline to sideline and plays a physical brand of football.
