This June, he has turned heads at the multiple camps he has attended with his knowledge of the game, cover skills, and lateral speed. Sean has done a great job as a linebacker covering offensive skill position players in one on ones. He has great anticipation for when players are about to make their breaks on short routes and double moves. This skill in combination with his performance during the spring season has helped him stand out.   [player_tooltip player_id="20926" first="Malyk" last="Jones"]: Homewood Flossmoor HS- 5’10” 220 lb This June, Malyk has performed well. Somehow, he has been an under-the-radar player, although he has two years taking starting snaps on varsity. The experience has shown against a variety of talent. Malyk has competed at camps that have taken place mostly in the Midwest but recently went down south to show out at Alabama A&M. A strong motor, quick change of direction, and thirst to further improve his game has helped the HF Viking stand out.   Brady Tosterud: Elk Grove HS- 6’5” 210 lb Brady is a prospect that plays the majority of his snaps at LB and TE but has stood out in June due to how athletic and versatile at LB that he can be. Being 6’5” and having the ability to run and tackle, coaches could not help but notice him. At the North Central football camp, you could see that Brady’s measurables put him in a place where he could play anywhere in the front 7 or line up at TE on the offensive side of the ball if need be. He has stood out in June and will be on the watch for his performance this fall.   [player_tooltip player_id="20924" first="Adrian" last="Palos"]- Harlem HS- 22 6’2 220 lb [player_tooltip player_id="20924" first="Adrian" last="Palos"] is an ILB who made the best of the Illinois spring season. He’s a hard hitter who can fill the gaps and looks to take on whoever he needs to to make a play. Being put together at 220 pounds, he has shown this summer how well he can move. At the camps Adrian attended, he showed fluid hip movement laterally and when moving downhill. The Harlem backer has started to pick up some offers, and you can expect him to pick up some more.   [player_tooltip player_id="20923" first="Tayo" last="Idowu"]- Richards HS- 22 6’2” 220 lb Illinois has an OLB in 6A that can serve as a solid 3-3 stack backer and a great pass rusher. After coming off of a spring season in which he made the 6A All-State team for Illinois Prep RedZone, he has been a grinder this summer. He does well tracking the ball in the air and on the ground. When running after players, his motor is on a high. Tayo has picked up his first offer from Northern Michigan University in June! With how much fun he has playing the game, the sky is the limit for him.
