So many great linebackers and just not enough slots to list them all: 2018 Super State freshman Logan Booth of Logan View is right there with anyone listed; Auburn has multiple talents; Sam Holt of Holdrege is the leading returning tackler in C1. Dietrich Lecher of Sidney, Jake Chasek of Mitchell are a few out west to watch.
RB will be interesting-Ludvik of Wahoo is a real talent but how will he fare with a rebuilt offensive line in front of him? Really like 1000 yard seniors Rylan Aguallo of Mitchell and Jake Stoner of Fillmore Central.
Wayne is going to be a very good team-state title good. I want to list RB Victor Kneische and OL Mason Frevert but they just miss the cut.
Watch out for Boys Town junior Jay Ballard who is just outside the mix on the DL.
The last WR out is 6-4 junior Garrett Oakley of Columbus Scotus-if he can find someone to throw him the ball, he could really turn into a star in this class.
Columbus Lakeview should be really good with that big strong offensive line and Swiss-Army knife do everything Adam Van Cleave.
Some really good sophomores that could become household names soon-RB Hyatt Collins of Adams Central; RB Landon Ternus of Columbus LV; WR/DB Trace Jackson of Wayne; ATH Xander Provance of Chadron; Cade Kirwan and QB Jackson Hinrichs of Holdrege; RB Logan Sobota of Ashland-Greenwood; LB Ethan Skalsky of Ogallala; LB Eli Boryca of Cozad; OL/DL Jacob Ottis of Battle Creek; and QB Abram Scholting of Pierce.
