Junior Will Gutz Will Gutz 5'11" | 175 lbs | RB Bennington | 2027 State NE had an explosive breakout year in his first season as the feature back for Bennington. Gutz carried the ball 264 times for 1,308 yards and 11 rushing touchdowns, averaging five yards per carry. Gutz’s sophomore tape was very fun to watch as he runs with a great blend of balance, vision, and breakaway speed. Defending Gutz seems like a tiresome chore with his willingness to chip away at defenses with tough, physical runs between the tackles, while also having the speed to break away in the open field once he’s gassed his opponents out. Will demonstrated incredible contact balance, utilizing his strong lower body to keep him upright as he battled through multiple tackle attempts. He also does a good job seeing the field and being patient with his blocks, flashing a natural feel for where his blockers will go and anticipation for opening running lanes. Surprisingly shifty on his feet— Gutz showed the quick twitch and agility to juke, spin, and cut back even in tight quarters. If one thing has proven true over the past few seasons, it’s that you NEED to watch out for those Bennington running backs.
