Leading the #2 ranked AA Chatfield Gophers squad is their big, experienced, athletic, and physical 2025 North Dakota Fighting Hawks commit Ethan Cole Ethan Cole 6'3" | 240 lbs | DL Chatfield | 2025 State MN . A kid who has been on our radar for years now, and is also a PrepRedzoneMN Showcase Top Performer and standout, Cole is in the midst of a monster senior season and is looking to cap off his prep career with some hardware. Cole earned and committed to North Dakota after an awesome in-person camp performance, one of the most exciting ways a commitment can occur, and it was a long time coming given how dominant Cole has been over the course of his high school career. Cole’s senior tape is no different, as he’s a dominant and overwhelming combination of size, speed, and strength from his DE spot who is a complete game-wrecker and the most athletic player on the field. Whether as a standup EDGE or hand-in-the-dirt DE lining up outside of the tackle, Cole owns a good get-off and first step, closes quickly for a big guy, and comes off the edge with some noticeable and impressive play speed. He displays lead in his hands and good pop at initial contact, as well as effective hand usage, and can run the hoop and win at the top of the arc. He can shock & shed and get off blocks, attack blockers with his outside shoulder free and proper leverage, and is a wrecking ball of an iOL or OT that can send defenders backward and even off their feet at the snap. Cole’s lateral agility helps him pull off harder blocks such as reaches and seals around the LOS and I love his effort, play speed, and balance at 6’3, 240 lbs. He has an awesome rep near the end of his midseason tape showing off finding work and lead blocking for his RB in space and far downfield and the body control, quickness, and physicality make him dominant against second and third-level defenders. North Dakota got a STUD! No ifs, ands, or buts about it.
