, who totaled 41 tackles, 10 TFLs, and 2 sacks in 2025, and he’s undoubtedly one of the more versatile and dynamic defensive players in Minnesota and a beast in a camp setting, in large part thanks to his green athletic and testing numbers at 230+ pounds.
Pruett owns maybe the best get-off in the state. His timing, leverage, and explosiveness are all slapping you in the face when watching Pruett fly off the ball at the snap, and his motor and overall effort embody the hair-on-fire mentality you can’t coach with high school prospects. The twitched-up block defeater can do serious damage as a hand-in-the-dirt DE or from a standup EDGE position, and his acceleration and ability to go 0-60 from a start/stop position do not go unnoticed in his junior highlights. Pruett can easily shed blocks and not get tied up around the LOS, and he’s a particular mismatch from the NG spot, where he’s an especially productive blitzer who can beat iOL and OTs with either speed or power, or both. Pruett forces the pigskin loose thanks to the velocity and force he comes into collisions with, and he knocks ball carriers backward on force of contact alone. The 230-pounder is a hammer at the contact point who sends helpless QBs bouncing off his pads like he ran into a middle schooler on accident, and he’s strong enough to knock the ball loose when he gets an arm on the ball in a tackle. Pruett can go speed to power, bull-rushed a LT straight into his own QB for a beast of a sack in his junior highlights, is a strong 1v1 tackler in space, and can pursue and hawk down ball carriers out to the edge and the sideline from his DE spot. This is going to be one popular Princeton Tiger this upcoming Summer Camp SZN!
