Brody is another athlete who is equally talented on the court as he is on the field. The senior is still looking for his next level home, and holds an offer for basketball. This season, Brody is averaging 16.9 PPG, 3.9 rebounds per game, and 3.7 assists per game. DeForest sits at 11-6 overall in basketball, and third palce in the Badger East.

On the field, Hartig was the go-to receiver for DeForest. He finished with 63 receptions, 844 yards, and 8 TDs. Brody is a bigger receiver, and uses his size to create separation, and gain yards after the catch. You see it a lot with the basketball/receiver combo. They have an innate ability to use their bodies to create separation. Brody is one of the top uncommitted seniors in the state. Especially at the WR position.

Stats: 7 Receptions, 84 Yards, 1 TD, 1 INTrnThe 6’2″ 190 lbs athlete had a nose for open field Friday night. He was able to get himself open repeatedly. Both within the timing of the play, and when the play broke down. It seemed like every catch was made with a couple yards of separation. Brody also made some nice concentration catches. One where he had to twist and reach back for the ball, and his interception came on a play where he did a nice job of high pointing the ball through contact. Hartig has received some D2 interest recently. He was on the Upper Iowa campus a couple weeks ago. A senior to watch.

Brody showed sufficient potential when I watched his footwork in action at the Winona State prospect camp when we got into drills. He showed a competitive first step and solid speed that he brought to the table in those live reps. Brody shows high productivity from the slot back position, especially in the red zone for the Norskies. As an All-Conference Honorable Mention last year on the gridiron and the hardwood,  Brody shows smooth balance with his route-running ability on multi-levels of the field. You can also depend on this young man to bring in those higher contested catches, as he shows several of those on his junior tape. No offers yet, but I think this fall will show off even more upside from Brody when it comes to the next level, as I think he has the tools to play on Saturdays.
