About Edmund
Expert Analysis
Tyler Stevens | Prep Redzone Scout
Edmund is one of the best running backs in the state, regardless of class. The 2029 superstar has been rewarded with several D1 offers and high-end P4 visits. His combination of speed, athleticism, and vision is brutal for defenders to deal with. The Tigers will look to lean on him for the next few seasons.

Pickerington Central running back Edmund McAllister will be making a very strong case for being Ohio’s top prospect. The twitchy tailback has a ton of raw speed, burst and explosiveness. He has elite top-end juice and can be gone if he finds an opening against defenses. Quick, decisive and possessing excellent vision, McAllister holds six offers.

McAllister III had a huge breakout freshman season rushing for over 1,000 yards and helping the Tigers to a regional runner-up in D1 Region 3. The explosive freshman can do it between the tackles, and he can do it on the boundary. Whiles he’s explosive and can make guys miss, but he doesn’t dance. He can be violent and get the tough yards too. Edmund already holds a P5 offer from Louisville and has several G5 offers to go with it.

Edmund was receiving a lot of hype heading into the 2025 season. The hype was real with Edmund, as he eclipsed 1,100 rushing yards in his freshman season with the Tigers. Edmund is a one-cut style running back with serious homerun potential. He hits his hole quickly and can fight through contact both high and low. Edmund still has a lot of running to do in high school, but his talents have been on display from an early age.

Explosive back that carries the pigskin with a purpose. I like how he finishes runs and makes himself available in the passing game. Above average ball skills and looks comfortable running double move routes. Edmund shows off strong legs pulling through tackles and finding creases to dart through, which typically finds his way to the first down marker or end zone.

McAllister was the top Class of 2029 running back at the PRZ Midwest Middle School Showcase. The 5’5, 146 lbs speedster from Ohio impressed throughout the camp. He posted a 5.07 40 yard dash, a 4.70 short shuttle, and an 8’8 broad jump. McAllister was incredibly quick in short area, possessing the ability to juke out defenders after securing the catch in 1-on-1’s. McAllister has a bright future ahead of him over the next several year.
