Expert Analysis

Knyair was a player who had an outstanding game DeMatha and was possibly the defensive MVP of the whole weekend in my mind. He transfer in to the Dematha after playing at Calvert Hall last year where I saw him multiple times. One of the first things I noticed about Knyair compared to last year as he has added some inches to his frame. He has also started to fill out really well and now is long body nice frame kid who looks the part of a P4 DB.

One the game, Knyair had 2 INTs with one being returned all the way for a TD. His first interception Knyair baited the SJP QB as he had over the top coverage on Jett Harrison and used his ability to cover lots of ground to get over to the sideline & go up and get the ball. By making that great play he saved what would have been a TD for SJP if he had not been there. His 2nd interception was off a pass affected by the rush but he was in the right spot and took it to the house for a TD. Kynair plays fast & physical. Comes down hill, runs the alley and will lay a blow on the ball carrier. He can play either Safety spot, over the top or down in the box offering positional versatility.

Currently holding three offers from Pittsburgh, Syracuse, and Toledo. I expect him to be a double digit P4 offer prospect by this time next year. Knyair looks on pace to be a top player in his class and do not be surprised if he is a rankings riser in the next PRZ MD 2027 rankings.

Knyair Crumb Knyair Crumb 6'2" | 200 lbs | DB DeMatha | 2027 State MD : Physical Defensive Back Making the Jump to the WCAC Spotlight

Knyair Crumb Knyair Crumb 6'2" | 200 lbs | DB DeMatha | 2027 State MD is making a major move this fall, transferring from the powerhouse MIAA to the WCAC, one of the nation’s premier high school football conferences, known for producing top-tier Division I talent year after year. And Crumb fits right in.

A downhill, high-impact defensive back, Crumb thrives in the open field with his textbook tackling and physicality. He doesn’t just make stops; he delivers statement hits. Whether in coverage or run support, he closes with urgency and plays with a relentless motor. One standout moment on film shows Crumb sprinting from the opposite side of the field to prevent a touchdown, highlighting not just his athleticism, but his work ethic and will to compete.

Already holding offers from Syracuse, Pitt, and most recently Toledo, Crumb’s recruiting stock continues to rise. As he steps into the WCAC spotlight, expect his name to gain even more traction among college programs looking for physical, high-IQ defenders who can make an impact.
