ESN PLAYER EVALUATION/NOTES
2018 1st Team All-District 5A-4. Gavin had a great junior season and has is a great prospect in the 2020 recruiting class. He has a Power 5 frame at 6’6 260-pounds. He is an excellent run blocker that bends really well for how tall he is. He attacks underneath the defender’s shoulder pads and has the power and strength to extend his long arms, and then will redirect them to create a big hole for his RB, or just pancake them into the ground. He excels in short yardage situations and goal line. He wins the 1-on-1 battles in the run game. As a pass blocker, he uses his long reach to his advantage against fast edge rushers. If someone slants down or crosses his face, he can move laterally and has the power to strike them and wash them out of the play. We are super impressed with his strength and flexibility for his size. Check out his basketball dunks on twitter. You will see what a stud he is. Power 5 recruit.
