Expert Analysis
Prep Redzone Staff | Prep Redzone Scout
As a sophomore inside linebacker for the Class AAAA state runners-up, Neal firmly established himself as one of the top contributors to perhaps the best defense in this part of the state, and if his 2022 performance is any indication, Redhound fans will have plenty to cheer about over this young competitor’s remaining two seasons. Collecting 37 solo tackles, 24 assists and a fumble recovery in 14 games, he demonstrates very disciplined eyes/reads, as well as the physical demeanor to quickly play downhill and meet blockers and/or ball carriers at the line of scrimmage. And while meeting/stopping ball carriers in the tackle box clearly seems his forte, his speed and relentless motor make him equally effective versus perimeter runs and a consistent factor that must be accounted for when executing screens and/or intermediate passing routes.
