Nobody is talking about Petoskey.

Haden is a sensational defender who will have a TON of opportunities to make a big impact on the game vs. DeWitt. The Panthers throw it deep a lot, and they also push the ball into space a lot via reverses and screens.

Against Midland, Haden showed great tackling, play speed, and instincts. His first highlight shows excellent defense on a wheel route, making a big hit and PBU. His next play shows an excellent tipped pass, followed by a sack.

Haden is playing his best football late in his senior season. If Petoskey wants to win against DeWitt, Haden needs to have a big name, which I think he will.

Haden could be the most underrated defensive back prospect in Michigan. Although I haven’t watched Haden closely in person, his film plus Alma’s offer makes me very optimistic. Petoskey doesn’t face the best teams in the state, but Haden is able to cut through the competition to still look like a highly productive DB. As a safety, he’s one of the more reactive guys I’ve watched. Just watch the first minute of his film. Haden forces several turnovers through both great instincts and good closing speed. He reminds me a lot of Troy Temple Troy Temple 6'2" | 165 lbs | ATH Walled Lake Western | 2025 State MI from Walled Lake Western, but admittedly not as athletic. If Haden can build off his 2023 campaign, he will be a prime D3 prospect with the chance of a GLIAC team expressing interest.
