Expert Analysis
Scott Burgess | Prep Redzone Scout
Wallace is an absolutely MASSIVE offensive tackle at 6’7″ 280 pounds. Making the move to Glenbard West for his junior year after previously being at Mt. Carmel. Moves well considering how big he is. Blows up guys on the second level. Very good pass blocker that anchors and mirrors well. Technically sound. Alot of upside and potential.

. It’s going to be hard to knock this kid out of the Top 20, and he’s got a great chance to continue climbing, as it’s hard to bet against elite size, top-tier competition – both in-program and competition-wise – a basketball background, and physicality. Wallace earned a summer camp invite from the Wisconsin Badgers from his freshman tape and offseason hype, and the RT is a crushing run blocker with consistent hand placement, a great first step off the snap, and noticeable leg drive post-contact. The 6’7 right tackle shows some quickness and start/stop ability when he works and climbs to the second level, with success I should add, and I really like the balance for a kid so big and so young. Can’t say forsure yet, but Wallace looks like a good athlete, and if that holds true, he’ll have no problem earning FBS and P4 offers. I’m interested to see when he’ll break into the varsity lineup of one of the top teams in Illinois.

. This kid thrives in getting a massive push off the line and then burying kids into the ground. He quickly gets on his opponent, making first contact with his elite length. The leg drive quickly wins the strength battle and then the aggression takes over as he finishes violently. Josiah is at his best as a run blocker, and I can’t wait to see his technique and body control develop over the next three years. He has a bright future.
