Has visited ND multiple times and seems to be prioritizing the Midwest including visits to pOSU early on in his recruitment. I thought he might eventually get an offer, but am a bit surprised ND offered this early. Kid was a monster on the football field as a Freshman.

Indiana Football Coaches All-State for Class 4A (Juniors and Below)

Headed to State Finals in the Shot Put

Vertical of 34.2"

Was benching 275 and squatting 455 in the fall.

Not very many 2029 offers out there that aren’t to QBs. Very much not many that there only other P4 offer is Louisville. Must have tore it up

Shoutout the NHC (now NE8). Pretty cool to see another top end recruit out of NEI alongside the defensive end from Wayne.

This profile is full circle for me. My wife was his kindergarten teacher. Great kid. Great motor. He’s some sort of amalgamation of Jack Kiser and Drayk Bowen.
You in Kendallville?

This is where I grew up and went to HS.

I’m in Columbia City, but my wife graduated from and started her teaching career at DeKalb, which is where Austin and his siblings attended until the end of middle school. Great family.

Didnt he break his leg last year?
Don't think so.

He got more carries at RB than originally anticipated as a Jr. RB broke his ankle.

Total Tackles - 99 TFL - 13 Sacks - 3 Hurries - 8 FF - 3
119 Carries - 967 Yards TDs - 11
2 Catches - 52 Yards TD - 1

I caught one game of his and he was noticeably stronger and more physical than everyone on the field.

I don’t think he broke his leg, but he did have an injury toward the end of the season. It really derailed EN’s run in the playoffs. They lost 32-0 to a very good Dwenger team.

Amazing to think that there’s a kid thats only going to be a sophomore at East Noble getting big offers like this. Kid will put up video game numbers by the time he’s a senior
