The Lincoln 6’5″ 285 pound offensive lineman had 42 pancake blocks through the first 9 weeks of the season. Showcased the ability to play either guard spot and be effective in doing so. Like the frame and ability to seal off defenders in the run game. Solid pulling in the run opening up holes for his backs.

The 6’5, 290 lber. out of Lincoln Community was right on the cusp of the recently refurbished 2026 PRzIL rankings and is more than likely to make the cut when we do a micro-update sometime after we finish the rankings coverage from the 2024 class in a couple of weeks. As a defensive tackle last fall, the freshman showed off the strength to overpower 1-on-1 and double teams with similar ease and into the backfield where he can get ahold of RBs for TFLs. He can make tackles through contact and does a good job of keeping his hands active when working off blocks. Also shows good leg drive as an offensive lineman. Poole is looking to make the jump to varsity this coming season and PRzIL is looking forward to seeing how the offseason has treated him!
