Will Black, hailing from London, Ontario, is the premier offensive line prospect in North America for the 2025 class and stands as the most distinguished Canadian prospect in recent history. At 6-foot-7 and 290 pounds, he is one of the nation’s most technically proficient tackles. With a lean, athletic build and considerable arm length, Black has the ideal physique and physical prowess for an elite high school offensive tackle prospect. His agility is equally impressive; he consistently clocked sub-5.1 second laser-verified 40-yard dashes during the camp circuit prior to his junior year, a remarkable achievement for someone of his stature and age. These robust physical qualities are likely to make him a standout in both zone and gap run schemes at the college level. His ability to move is evident on film, where he effortlessly navigates space, skillfully advancing to the second level in the run game and performing well as a pulling lineman in gap scheme runs and screens. Black’s superior physical traits ensure his excellence in various run schemes. As one of the most exceptional talents to come from Canada, Black received offers from every major NCAA Power 4 college program before committing to Notre Dame.

Will has excellent feet that don’t stop and a motor to match. He gets hands on defenders quickly and then drives them out of the play… or to the ground. He plays with a low pad level in the run game, and has great timing with quick hands in pass protection. Will has a quick first step and brings the power right behind it. He is fast enough to get to the second level and also gets to the edge quickly when pulling. Will has an impressive jump set, has precise hand placement and hand strength. Will serves frustration and turf to defenders play after play; and at 6’7″ 290 pounds, he will doing at the next level soon enough. Certainly one of the best in New England
His measurables align with Division I Power 5 Schools

Another juggernaut out of Choate Rosemary Hall, formerly out of London, Ontario, is yet another massive linemen prospect that will be suiting up in the NEPSAC this coming Fall. A lean and clean 6’7, 285 pounds, Will Black Will Black 6'7" | 290 lbs | OL Choate Rosemary Hall | 2025 State New E ‘s OSFL highlight tape is littered with dominant run-blocking reps. In all honesty, I won’t pretend to know what kind of competition Black was facing up North, yet the blessing of those at Choate Rosemary Hall leads me to believe that he’ll fit right in sooner rather than later. Black is a bit raw in advanced aspects of lineman play, he’s a kid I would love to watch in a camp setting to understand just how flexible and athletic he really is. That being said, there’s a lot to like in a 6’7 tackle prospect who can develop under the CRH umbrella.
