Funny story about Luke Wafle Luke Wafle 6'6" | 245 lbs | DL The Hun School | 2026 State NJ . One day I was speaking with Prep Network’s Editor in Chief and he mentioned that someone reached out to say “how do you not have Luke Wafle Luke Wafle 6'6" | 245 lbs | DL The Hun School | 2026 State NJ ranked?” I explained that we are aware of him and he was idling in the watch list awaiting our next rankings update.
Well, the wait is over. Wafle totally shot up the rankings to claim the #2 spot in the state. There is much to like on film about Wafle that makes him a national recruit. First, he possesses a tremendous get off walks opponents backwards due to the tremendous power he is able to generate. His power-generating get off has no impact, however, on his ability to make quick movements. Impressively, you see Wafle’s body begin to have the out-and-up arch to it, meaning that his hips are engaged coming out of his stance. The deadly combination of hand fighting and closing speed makes him a very difficult to limit when pass rushing. When Wafle does not get to the quarterback for a sack, he is extremely disruptive, impacting and rushing throws in a negative way. Similarly, Wafle takes excellent angles of pursuit and does not seem to blow contain. As a tackler, we see him totally drive his body through the man as well. As a run stopper, Wafle is fast enough to beat kickout blockers to the point of attack, getting around them, and blows up plays. Lastly, we see him work to refit hands and win leverage that way. There are truly very few holes in Wafle’s game and he has a very good shot to start as a true freshman at a big-time program.
