About Gavin
Expert Analysis
Oliver West | Prep Redzone Scout
Bloomington Jefferson has some long, athletic pieces returning in 2026, and PRZMN really has our eye on 6’4, 180 lb. OLB prospect Gavin Vanoverbeke. With a great frame and a ton of room to fill in + two-way versatility and production at the MN 5A Metro level, Vanoverbeke opens his tape with an eye-catching, one-handed INT against Minneapolis Washburn where he slips into the flats and right under a deeper out route, noticeably getting the crowd on their feet. The two-way contributor shows visible awareness as a route runner, finding and knowing where the sticks are and breaking down and dropping his hips well for a taller wideout, and he has a couple of ruthless reps showcasing his physicality as a blocker to boot. Vanoverbeke attacks blockers with physicality and can make plays behind the LOS from his EDGE, standup OLB spot, and is a solid 1v1 tackler who reads/reacts quickly and can diagnose plays as they develop. DIIIs, NAIAs, JUCOs, get to this high-ceiling 2027 on your boards ASAP, and Gavin, hope to see you at April 18th’s PRZMN Spring Exposure Series’ Showcase!
