Today we are taking a look at the class of 2024’s offensive prospects that stood out from this thread of athletes. We will include recruits who are new names to us that are separating themselves from the pack and some familiar faces too.
Garrett is a quick and twitchy back who can make defenders miss in the hole as well as in open field. His agility and footwork allow him to stick his foot in the ground and change direction in a split second. Garrett has been making noise since his sophomore year at Elanore Roosevelt where he split carries with upperclassmen. Since then, Garrett has been consistently improving, transferring into the MIAA and still producing big plays and showcasing his skills. Garrett has improved each year, last season he made all conference. The best is yet to come for Aidan and Pallotti, they have some young weapons coming back for 2024 with Garrett leading the pack.
Highlights
Newman’s versatility immediately jumps off of the screen. For the Knights he plays receiver, takes handoffs from running back, plays return man on special teams and some defensive back. At the next level Newman will make a good slot receiver with the combination of his experience out of the backfield and receiving skills, he has the potential to develop into a big play threat at either receiver or carrying the ball. City is also returning a lot of talent; this offense is expected to light it up again next season.
Dorsey is a new name out of D.C. in the IAC Conference. Nelson is a back with good size already at 5’10 205lbs and runs with strength to break arm tackles and fall forward for a few extra yards after contact. Nelson has more in his arsenal than just tough running, he possesses the breakaway speed and some elusiveness to break off big chunk plays, and long touchdown runs. Out of the backfield he turns middle screens into 20+ yard gains. So far Nelson has been getting interests from Duke, Yale, Brown, and Princeton.
Highlights
Greaver has a mean streak that causes problems for opposing defensive tackles and linebackers. Cam is aggressive and athletic, a back-alley brawl type of center. He showcases a variety of techniques to take his opponent out of the play, snatch and trap, bull rush, and chop are a few of his most commonly used. Greaver had plenty pancakes on his film and if he gets the best of his man, he might just keep him pinned while watching the rest of the play, expected from a nasty center.
Highlights
Crockett is a big play threat and very versatile athlete. He plays receiver, return man, and defensive back. He accelerates quickly after the catch and has good ball carrying vision in the open field. Defensively he attacks the ball, swipes to force fumbles and displays his ball skills when the ball is in the air. Look for Crockett to play a bigger role in the St. Mary’s offense with the loss of a dynamic QB.
