Expert Analysis

Prep Redzone Lead Scout

The Blue Tornadoes have come out for the 2023 season with a bang, especially their defense that is shutting down opponents and allowing their offense plenty of snaps. A big reason for the undefeated start and stellar play on the defensive side of the ball has been Marie-Dogui. This 6’2 235 pound edge rusher has been near unblockable, using his upper body strength, powerful hands and bend to cause havoc in the opposition’s backfield. He is strong versus the run as he sets the edge well but has a burst and power about himself that I like for rushing the passer. Marie-Dogui is currently committed to Colgate and they are getting a steal but part of the reason why this native Canadian isn’t highly thought of is because of his size. Let me tell you that this guy can play and I think his best football is ahead of him.

This native Canadian and Chattanooga based defender is one of the more underrated defensive prospects from the entire #TN2024 class and it may be due to his 6 ‘2 size but Marie-Dogui is a well built young man that brings a variety of strong traits to the football field. The first thing that stands out about the McCallie defender is his physicality and ability to stop the run. Marie-Dogui does a good job of using his strong hands to push back blockers then string out the running back to either make a play on the ball or allow his teammates to come clean things up. He does show pass rush upside on film as Marie-Dogui has good athleticism along with a solid bend that tells you he can develop further here on the collegiate gridiron. I can easily see this Blue Tornado defensive prospect pick up recruiting steam this summer as college coaches work with him in person and see the potential he brings down the road.
