Then perhaps a safety. I thought this when I first watched him: He reminds me of Jordan Kovacs from Michigan. Small, not incredibly fast, but smart and a sure tackler.

Looks like a "smart" FB player is right. Special Teams or possibly safety, but not sure he has the speed for that.

Just like all white defensive backs

The best player coming out of AHS since...who?!!

You realize that's not saying much, and is probably the reason he doesn't have an offer.

Jamie Burrow the starting MLB for Nebraska in their last national championship game.(they lost but he was a stud). 96 State runner-up team.

He is bigger now. At least 185. Very strong. He is going out for track we'll find out how fast he is.

Sounds good, but this staff hasn't been chasing guys in Iowa with better measurables, so there must be something here. By that I mean Ebertowski. The kid may be a head case, but at 6-1, 210, and the fastest kid in the state as a junior(and he looks like the fastest on the field as well) you could do something with that. Must be more to his story....

I have a feeling there is more. I mean you would think someone would have offered him whether it be ISU, Iowa, Nebraska or someone.

Did he even get offered bu UNI? The last I heard he didn't. There is something up there.

This kid has a very impressive highlight film. However, with his size and speed, he probably isn't a D-1 scholarship worthy player. He would be an exceptional walk on as the kid seems to go 100% at all times. If he could improve his speed, he could earn a scholarship playing safety. Would be one hell of a special teams player down the road. I hope he walks on.

IMO, he thinks he comes first.

Cruise or Ebertowski?

[ljhlax]

Wow, pretty impressive video. He just explodes to the ball. Looks like a safety at the next level. What's his 40 time?

Yes, Ebertowski is committed to UNI. Supposedly in addition to his D1 FCS offers, he had a D1 FBS offer from Air Force but apparently didn't want to serve in the military.

Impressive defensive highlights... Whats his height and weight? Do you think he's faster than Jamie Burrow?

Currently 6' 195lbs, he ran a 4.6 as a JR, I doubt Jamie Burrow ever ran a 4.6 and was probably a 4.8 out of HS and I'm being generous.
