Expert Analysis

Caleb Holfoth

Prep Redzone Lead Scout

Another Canadian prospect sporting the Blue and White of The McCallie School is a big defensive line prospect who holds an offer from Chattanooga. Pholo is quick off the ball and shows good lateral movement shooting gaps and holding the edge against outside zone runs. He is a little bit of a tweener size-wise, but with his athleticism, I think he translates as a big, strong, side defensive-end prospect who has the movement skills to build a strong pass rush off of.

Chris Smith

Prep Redzone Lead Scout

A new prospect to the state of Tennessee for the Fall football season, Pholo is an active, physical and violent competitor that fits the 3-tech well but has the body to take on more weight and play nose guard as well. Pholo will likely stay away from tackle in the long term due to his athleticism, explosion off the snap and quick feet towards the ball. Pholo also works well versus the run as he shows on the film the ability to shed blocks and get to the ball quickly. His addition to the Blue Tornado defensive line this season should pay off in a big way as his play and presence should help others around him. Recruiting has yet to pick up for Pholo but I believe that will change after his summer camp season and his debut with McCallie this Fall.
