In my opinion, good offensive line play starts from the ground up. I feel good feet and agility mostly trump strength and power. The first thing I noticed about Allex was his feet. What he does in the first two feet of space separates the Tigers’ big man. His footwork and hips in the left tackle’s pass sets and initial contact in the running game give him an immediate advantage. While I said strength is secondary, guys still have to have a baseline of strength and power, and Allex has that, too. He has the strength to put guys away both in pass pro and blocking for the run.

Continuing the standout tradition of offensive lineman out of Marshall High School as of late is 6’4, 270 lber. Jake Allex Jake Allex 6'4" | 275 lbs | OL Marshall | 2025 State MN . I’m very excited about his future and potential, especially after learning that Allex just started playing football as a freshman. That means there’s a ton of room to improve, grow, and develop, and he’s got one of the higher ceilings in the state while also at a position that MN historically produces very well at. Allex is a noticeably strong kid who can easily finish opponents off a couple of steps of his powerful leg drive, and he also displays a ton of initial pop at the contact point, lateral agility and control as a puller, and a high motor that doesn’t quit until the whistle sounds. I also like how he can drop his hips and break down to corral second level defenders, and he’s also working to finish. The LT is just beginning to scratch the surface, but the size, natural strength, and high-effort playstyle all bode very well for his future. I’ll all but guarantee he moves up the rankings board come next update. Allex is a must-know name in the very talented 2025 OL class out of Minnesota.
