Expert Analysis
Nate Wahl | Prep Redzone Scout
Wessington Springs Pop. 771
Nathan saw starting reps on both side of the ball for the Warbirds in the 2025 season, but the consistency he brings at the linebacker position is what caught my attention at our Dakotas Showcase and on his junior tape. The 5’11 190 pounder plays with a great motor that ranges well as a run-stuffer within the inside and exterior of the inside box. You also get a middle linebacker that has great short-area vison that can fly downhill to the football quickly on a persistent basis. He shows off a linebacker that shows off sudden movement to the point of attack. The Warbirds had a few signees in this 2026 class that went on to play college football and it appears to me they will have another one for sure in this 2027 class.
