About Gavyn

How would you briefly describe your gameplay style?

Growing up I loved watching defensive players who attacked the football. I've tried to model my game after Troy Polamalu and Brian Dawkins. I try to bring the same intesity to the game as they did and I want to revolutionize the Defenisive Lineman position by showing that we are not just run stuffers but we can pursue the ball carrier just like a linebacker or the secondary.

Can you provide a brief description of your mentality or personality?

I am a very relaxed person, many people call me an introvert. When I am not focusing on academics or the football field, I enjoy finding a quiet place to fish, finding a moutin top to go four-wheeling on and enjoy being in nature.

Are you involved in any clubs, organizations, or have you received any non-sport awards?

I was named to the High School Football America (HSFA) 2024 Academic All-American team.

Gavyn Combs Gavyn Combs Gavyn Combs 6'5" | 270 lbs | DL/OL Betsy Layne | 2027 State KY had a breakout season as a sophomore. He lines up at defensive tackle/end where he is very impressive against the run. Combs explodes out of his stance and uses his speed to blow by opposing offensive tackles to get to the ball carrier with a sense of urgency. Once he gets to the ball carrier, he is a very reliable tackler in the open field, finishing last season with 84 tackles and eight tackles for loss in 12 games. He also finished his sophomore year with two sacks. Combs has received a strong amount of college interest and I expect his recruitment to continue to heat up heading into his junior year.
