Laying the wood and hitting hard can absolutely be genetic, and we have a legacy of Pine Island Schiltz’s to prove this hypothesis. 2027 ‘backer Cody Schiltz Cody Schiltz 6'2" | 215 lbs | LB/TE Pine Island | 2027 State MN , the younger brother of NDSU RS freshman DE Blake Schiltz, has shown significant development and improvement in his body and game the past couple season. Schiltz has added some serious good weight in the offseason, and despite seeing significant physical growth, Schiltz has moved from the DL to an off-ball, ILB role with the Panthers as a now-upperclassman, and boy, does this switch look great. The younger Schiltz is also powered by some serious track numbers, namely a 52’02 shot put and 179’03 discuss last outdoor season, showing some serious D1 ability and upside depending on the speed, in-person COD, and general camp evaluations. Talk about a potential stock riser!

Schiltz pinballs climbing and pulling guards off him with physicality and ease, and he’s a frightening fullback with impressive burst for his size. When he’s coming downhill at full speed safeties and smaller opponents are noticeably worried about squaring him up, and he also showed the top-end sped to finish runs for six once he gets into space. Schiltz crumples RBs at the contact point and can knock the ball loose off pure contact alone, and he absolutely flattened some first and second level defenders as a fullback. Bone-shattering hits that seem to erase blocking assignments and sending them collapsing to the grass with ridiculous brutality. Additionally, ball carriers don’t have a chance of gaining extra yardage post-contact, and he consistently wins at the gain line. Plus, the Panthers‘ 2027 displays good hands out of the backfield or from a HB spot that adds to his utility offensively, as well as good overall range for his size. Can’t wait to see where the Summer Camp SZN takes him!
