About Blake
Expert Analysis
Nate Wahl | Prep Redzone Scout
Blake showed off a ton of athletic ability from the limited amount of reps I got to watch him at the Northern State prospect camp. He showed off a 9’1 broad jump and, in Indy reps, showed a plethora of athleticism coming out of his stance. He also showed a good explosion, and I wish I had watched more reps of his skill set. His tape shows a go-getter’s ability to provide a cushion on the next field level to assure the second contact. Blake is a three-level prospect with sound footwork in open space and sideline-to-sideline finished speed that can flip the field with his solid strides in the return game. He may be only 160 pounds, but I love Blake’s durability on first contact from the running back spot, as he doesn’t just show shifty feet; he shows instinctive vision identifying the contact early, which speaks volumes of his football IQ. He has a few offers at the NAIA and one D2 offer, and I think he’s due for more at that level when we look ahead into the fall season.
