Max Hunt Max Hunt 6'6" | 230 lbs | TE Holy Cross-Covington | 2027 State KY is a player who has been high on my radar for a while now and continued to impress as a junior. He played a key role in the Holy Cross passing game this past season, catching 21 passes for 314 yards and six touchdowns in 12 games. Max is a very reliable target in contested/jump ball situations, using his high catch radius and athleticism to attack passes at their highest point along with his strong hands to bring in catches through contact with ease. He has also proven to be a skilled route runner, using smooth breaks in his routes to create separation from opposing defensive backs. Hunt also threw one touchdown pass as a junior and played a key role on defense, finishing the year with 28 tackles, seven tackles for loss, and 3.5 sacks. Max currently holds offers from Kentucky and Miami (OH), and I wouldn’t be surprised to see more come his way soon.
