Jacob Sweet
About Jacob
Expert Analysis
Ian Guerin | Prep Redzone Scout
Our favorite part of Sweet’s game is probably why opposing offensive line coaches hate him. Sweet, all 6-foot-3 and 260 pounds of him, can shift from the middle to the edge and back again from one play to the next. He’s got the build of a tackle, but more than enough height, reach and footwork to navigate the edge at Pinewood.
What he showed glimpses of as a freshman and sophomore came into pure view during his junior year. It was then than he set career highs in tackles (68), tackles for loss (20.5), sacks (eight), pass break-ups (eight), fumble recoveries (three) and forced fumbles (two).
There’s not a division of high school ball in the country where that’s not going to play, and Sweet being as dominant as he was in the SCISA Class 3A State Semifinal and Championship game was further proof.
