| Has emerged as one of the top LB in the state. Has very good size, is aggressive and plays hard. Has put on a good bit of weight but still has range, so he should stay at LB. Runs well and is not a match-up liability. Very poised and plays through adversity. Will excel at the collegiate level and could be a special-teams standout early--Burke Hayes |
