Expert Analysis
Rob Howe | Prep Redzone Scout
Gates caught my eye last season with his defensive performance against rival Regina when I scouted that game. When I returned for the next installment of the great series in Week 2 of 2025, he looked like a prospect in both sides of the ball. In addition, he flashed potential as a return man. On offense, Gates rushed for 96 yards on 14 carries against a stingy defense. He’s a patient and tough runner with some giddy-up. Gates led the Bears with 9.5 total tackles and seven stops for loss. The physicality that aids him with the ball in his hands certainly shines through on defense. Gates is a good athlete with speed and versatility. Colleges would be wise to monitor his progress.
