is a real bruiser with the ball in his hands. Taking on a big role for Casteel’s offense, he’s really finding his stride here in the last few weeks. After posting back-to-back weeks with 135+ rushing yards, Linyear got into the endzone four times last week in a win over Mesa. The strong and powerful back can wear out a defense throughout a drive, consistently delivering the big hits himself. Linyear’s also a surprisingly reliable receiver for a bigger back. Despite his size, Linyear is also a surprisingly reliable receiver, with soft hands that make him a threat in space. He’s a player coaches should take a long look at if they’re looking to add physicality to their program.

is a thrilling new addition to this Casteel team. The New York transfer comes in at 6’0 210lbs, with a gritty build and nifty athleticism. At Niskayuna High School last season, he had 170 carries for 1239 rushing yards and 21 TDs. He has remarkable vision when running through the gaps, able to maneuver and then burst with excellent speed and explosiveness in the open field. He is a tough man to bring down, making defenders miss with ease with a great jump cut and a solid stiff arm to pass over tacklers. With Linyear coming into a different environment, he will be an interesting player to keep your eyes on to see how he can adjust to a brand new team.

Linyear, one of my favorite prospects in New York and, I think, one of the top 2025 RB prospects not many people know about, has also picked up some offers from Academies and UPenn. Now at Casteel HS in Arizona, Linyear is one of the top backs in the area.

out of Niskayuna was one of my favorite prospects out of section II in the 25 class and the RB prospect will make a big-time move to Arizona where he will now play for Casteel High School. Not many were as productive as Linyear at 6′ 210lbs he ran for over 1200 yards and 21TDs. Linyear moves to Arizona with some offers already and now will likely be an intriguing target for Mountain West conference.
