Expert Analysis
Hayden Lindquist | Prep Redzone Scout
A built OLB who is looking to finally get starting time in 2025, Young’s film from last season was a promising showcase of the now junior’s talent. He was primarily a special-teams player last season, seeing some occasional rotation minutes. He’s powerful when he can build up a head full of steam, and I admire his pursuit abilities. I hope to see Young’s physicality translate to stellar tape during his fall campaign.

Grant Young Grant Young 6'0" | 188 lbs | LB St Thomas | 2027 MN solidified his spot as one of the best junior LBs to watch in Minnesota heading into 2025 with his performance on Sunday. Young did a great job at maintaining a low stance and slight arch while running, and he did a solid job at pinning the inside hip of the RB during the 1-on-1 drills. Young also proved to be difficult to contain, as he flashed plenty of power against the RB blocks, winning on the inside shoulder with strength and solid rip moves that allowed him to win most of his reps on Sunday. Young is developing at a steady rate, and that could parlay into him finding much more playing time next season on the varsity lineup for St. Thomas Academy’s defense.
