Nail is coming off a productive Senior season for Ripon where he was one of the more active defenders across the region in 2024, and is a dynamic pass rusher that wins with first step get off, quick use of hands and natural bend around bigger blockers with a high motor when pursuing backside. He is stout against the run, has a quick lockout and inside hands while able to violently get off blocks and control blockers at the POA. He is headed to MJC after a very successful prep career for Ripon and should find his home at either OLB or edge in college.

Nail is another central valley defender that checks into our WL rankings in the latest update, and is coming off a stellar senior season for Ripon where he was very active from both his edge spot and on the interior. Although a bit undersized for the position, he has a strong frame and does a nice job at using his length and power against bigger blockers and wins with leverage and initial knock-back at the POA. Out of his stance, he is a powerful striker that has a good punch and leg drive through contact when resetting the line of scrimmage. Nail also shows he can make plays consistently behind the line and provides some sneaky speed and twitch inside and shows he can play anywhere along the defensive front in college. He is a no brainer D3+ caliber player that should be able to find a home at the next level and is very worthy of entering into our WL rankings this time around.
