About Dawson
Expert Analysis
Rob Howe | Prep Redzone Scout
Maki’s toughness helps him play a lot bigger and more effectively than his physical stature might otherwise indicate. Watching him operate during an Oct. 10, 2025 game at Clear Creek Amana, Maki looked like a guy more prepared and playing at a faster tempo than most of the others on the field. Maki does well in diagnosing what he sees before the ball is snapped and is fast to it once the play is underway. He’s a sound tackler and sticks his nose in when supporting the run. Maki shows fluid hip movements in coverage and has a good feel for using his hands to his advantage. There are plenty of colleges out there that would benefit from his presence on defense and special teams.
