for a long time. I very rarely see a linebacker who is as smart and reactive as Charles.
Especially against an elite run game, Charles is going to be key. Throughout his career, Charles has shut down several great running backs. Plus, Charles consistently faces amazing teams in the Catholic League.
Against Groves, Charles needs to be as physical and reactive as ever. He’s facing off against two D1-offered running backs, plus one of the best offensive lines in Michigan. In fact, I think the Groves O-line is the best in all of D2. This game may be key in Charles’ recruiting, and of course the biggest game of his career.

Charles and St. Mary’s are about to face off against an extraordinary run game. Carlson has what I think is the best 3-down RB in Michigan, and Charles will play a gigantic role in keeping Carlson one-dimensional.
I’ve always been incredibly impressed with Charles’ ability to react. Immediately after the ball is snapped, Charles is oftentimes able to diagnose the play within a split second and fire downhill toward a TFL. On top of that, Charles has the speed needed to go sideline-to-sideline.
One of the best linebackers in Michigan. Can’t wait to see what Charles is able to do against a super run-heavy offense.

It’s so incredibly difficult to stand out as a Linebacker. Charles has not only stood out, but he’s been able to earn offers from Michigan State, Rutgers, and others. Playing off-ball, Charles showcases incredible IQ, effort, and physicality. As for IQ, there are several plays where Charles knows what will happen before the snap. Most linebackers need to read and react, but Charles oftentimes skips the “read” portion and immediately attacks. In addition, Charles explodes out of his stance and does a great job at finishing his tackles. Any linebackers reading this- immediately watch Charles’s tape. This is exactly how you’re supposed to play as an off-ball linebacker, and I can’t wait to see what Charles is able to accomplish this season and in college!
