72. Makai Daniels Makai Daniels 5'11" | 210 lbs | LB McKeesport | 2028 State PA

Previously unranked and without a profile, Makai Daniels Makai Daniels 5'11" | 210 lbs | LB McKeesport | 2028 State PA debuts at No. 72 and immediately becomes one of the highest-ranked linebackers in Pennsylvania’s 2028 class. At 5’11, 210 pounds, Daniels currently sits as the No. 4 linebacker in the state. The biggest surprise surrounding this evaluation is the fact that he remains unoffered. Daniels has actively attended events and continued working to increase exposure despite the lack of recruiting traction. In my opinion, this was one of the easiest evaluations completed during the rankings process. The ranking reflects belief in both the player and the long-term projection. It feels more like a matter of when offers arrive rather than if. Debuting this high without recruiting momentum is a major compliment to Daniels and his future.
