Expert Analysis
Alex Pallone | Prep Redzone Scout
- Rare combination of size, speed, and strength
- Looks like a well-trained D1 college freshman instead of a high school sophomore
- Extremely competitive
- Bowls through opposing defenses. Usually needs several defenders to bring him down.
- Excellent upside as a running back or linebacker. Interested to see what position he ends up playing in college.
- A major part of Portage Central’s improbable 2025 run.

Noe climbs from #9 to #5 after a truly special sophomore season. The 6’4″ RB totaled 1,803 rushing yards and 21 touchdowns on 211 carries. He was the lifeblood of the Portage Central offense and was a massive part of why Portage Central dominated its way to the state semifinals. Without playing any defense, Noe was still able to prove himself as a hard-nosed, physical football player. Potentially playing both ways in 2026, Noe should have an even better Junior year.
That said, I’m betting on Noe to continue his fast-track development.

Still expecting Camden to develop into a Power 4 linebacker, though he’s been an all-star at running back this season. Heck, I could see him flip-flopping to a RB-first prospect.
Noe is a major reason why Portage Central is undefeated and a State Championship contender. Just watch his first highlight. Running up the gut, Camden displays excellent contact balance and good speed. Think Isaiah Pacheco. Camden runs angrily, and most high school defenders are going to get tired of trying to bring him down.
Linebacker, running back, whatever- this is Camden’s breakout season, and he’s quickly emerging as one of the best high school football players in Michigan.

We expect Camden to eventually grow into a Division 1 prospect at linebacker. So far this season, he’s proved that he can be an elite running back as well.
Portage Central blew out Forest Hills Central last week. A big part of that was due to

in the run game. Super simple evaluation here- Camden consistently bulldozed his way through the defense. Watch his week 2 highlights and you’ll see several instances of defenders, sometimes multiple at once, bouncing right off of Camden. Super efficient north-south running that is extremely hard to stop.
Absolutely looking like Camden is a breakout player this year. We saw it a little at the Wayne State mega camp, and we’re seeing it in full force now.

Verified 6’3″ 200 and excellent athletic traits make for an extremely high-upside prospect. I’m very bullish on Camden, and it seems a few colleges feel the same. Camden currently holds offers from Minnesota, Western Michigan, Miami (OH), Toledo, and Central Michigan.
Cam’s current tape is all at running back. There, he showcased good downhill running. Nothing too flashy, just productive north-south running with solid breakaway speed.
I feel that Noe’s real upside is at linebacker. He’s already got a great frame, great (verified) testing numbers, and good camp performances. He checks a ton of boxes!

‘s stock is rising at a crazy rate. A lot of the MAC has done their homework on Camden and he has shown out this offseason. Just in the last couple of weeks, teams like Miami (OH), Minnesota, Central Michigan and more have extended offers.
He’s an interesting prospect who has already started to fill out physically and has showed a ton of potential. He is far beyond a lot of others in his class in terms of size and strength, but his football IQ is far beyond his years as well. Camden will continue to be a hot prospect and will likely develop into a P4 guy.
