A previously unknown prospect to me, I couldn’t leave Kingston Stadium on Friday night without remembering sophomore linebacker, Gabe Blanshan Gabe Blanshan 6'3" | 210 lbs | LB/TE Urbandale | 2028 IA .

A big body with long arms already looking the part of a high-level linebacker in just his second year of high school ball, Blanshan led Urbandale in tackles in Cedar Rapids, posting 10.5, including eight solo. His ability to read and react, plus his frame make him a play waiting to happen. Whether it’s reading the QB’s eyes, jumping up and swatting down a pass at the line, recognizing a screen and dipping around would-be blockers for a tackle or patiently waiting for a play to develop before taking off after ball-carriers, Blanshan is a tackling machine.

With 42.5 tackles through four games this season, he may not be on college radars just yet, but if he keeps up this level of production, he will be soon enough.
