He neutralizes the pass rush moves, or stands tall against powerful bull rushes. He has good athletic ability due to good acceleration, speed, and very good foot quickness. This helps in spaces or screen games, or going from the 1st to 2nd level. Very good pull blocker too. Lee is dominant and just received an offer from Colorado Mesa University. I believe he is a D1 talent.

Lee is a tone setter in the trenches. Physical at the point of attack and technically sound, Lee consistently dominates defenders with his strength and motor. In the run game, he’s capable of clearing lanes and finishing blocks. In pass protection, he stays low and uses his base to hold his ground. Lee’s versatility, being able to play center or guard, adds to his recruiting value. He holds offers from Incarnate Word and South Dakota School of Mines, but his power and agility suggest he will be garnering more attention soon. Coaches looking for a tough, high IQ interior lineman should be paying attention to this standout.
