Jon "Duck" Gray is one of our most ardent website supporters. His main sport is basketball, but he has become a legend on the football trail, too. How cool is it that his nickname is a good fit with Tom "Puck" McKenna and Ed "Huck" Palmer? You may contact Duck at jdtrilogy@aol.com

I-A and I-AA’s

Diquan Gilbert 6’1 205 RB/LB Communications Tech Sr.

This kid is a player and he has lots of talent and toughness. Good size and speed, he also has a knack for making tough plays. I-A and IAA schools should be requesting tapes.

Ben Coulibaly 6’0 190 RB Boys Latin High Sr.

This is one talented running back who makes plays and seems to be extremely consistent. Coulibaly is a tireless worker for his team.

Antron Smith 5’10 175 RB/LB Delaware Valley Jr.

A true hard-worker all over the football field, Smith is a sure tackler and solid when it comes to defense. A player whose skills merit lots of attention, Smith continues to impress.

Eric Lark 6’4 200 QB Boys Latin High Sr.

A strong-armed passer who appears to be an energetic player for his team, Lark has a high-upside.

Brandon Chatmon 6’2 219 LB Imhotep Charter Sr.

This player provides game-long energy and he uses that energy to provide game-long troubles for the opposite team. A consistent and sure tackler who has a knack for getting near the ball-carrier.

Shabazz Rivers 5’11 170 ATH Delaware Valley High Sr.

A very consistent player on both sides of the ball, Rivers, makes an impact whether carrying the ball or defending against it. Rivers is quality multipurpose-player on offense and makes plenty of contribution on defense; one player who plays an effective role for his squad.

Chris Rone 6’2 221 TE-DE Germantown High School Sr.

A tough defender who has a nice “first step” when going for the ball-carrier. Also appears to be a more than solid blocker.

Aaron James 6’2 215 TE-DE Murrell Dobbins Tech Sr.

One of those kids who catches your attention with the word – “potential”, and he makes plays on defense and is active chasing players.

Solomon Fitchett 6’4 180 WR-DB Delaware Valley High Jr.

Has a high upside and is an improving player. Makes plays on both sides of the ball and makes catches on offense. One to keep an eye on.

SEPT. 12
EARLY PROSPECT LOOK

There is an immense amount of talent in the city and I’ve been able to see some very good players and interesting collegiate prospects during the first two weeks. This is a first look on the season and these players are still developing so they could become more highly regarded.

(FBS (I-A) and FCS (I-AA))

David Williams RB 6-1 200 Imhotep Charter, Sr. – Top tier halfback , who is being recruited by many top level programs, (Arizona State, Wisconsin, Ohio State, Nebraska, Tennessee and South Carolina) played well against Strath Haven. Easily a top player in the Philadelphia area.

John Pender QB-LB 6-3 188 Strath Haven, Sr. – A very good defensive player who makes plays and looks like he has a desire to win games on defense. Pender should be key for Strath Haven, which defeated Radnor last week.

Eric Leggett T-DT 6-2 300 Strath Haven, Sr. – Active on both sides of the ball and appeared to be a capable blocker during special teams. Seemed to want to play all game long and was a competitor.

Darnell Baldwin WR-DB 6-3 170 Germantown High School, Sr. – A good defensive back who makes a bunch of plays for the Bears. Had a couple of big games late last season and is now looking like he will be the defense’s star. Germantown appears loaded on the defensive side Baldwin is a clear reason why.

Kevin Norris WR-DB 5-11 175 Germantown High School, Sr. – Looked really impressive against Thomas Edison. Seemed to be stepping into the shoes of the aforementioned Will Parks, he wears the exact same number. Norris could be a classic Public League kid who turns the heads of coaches while in the 12th grade.

Delane Hart WR-DE 6-3 176 Germantown High School, Jr. – A top level prospect who is growing into a likely Division I-A player like his brother Will Parks (Arizona). Hart can naturally play a bunch of positions at this level.

Dontae Angus OL-DL 6-6 310 Germantown High School, Jr. – Emerging as an awesome blocker with the ability to make blocks downfield after the first block. Seems to be developing into a prospect that will move up the recruiting charts in the eyes of many and a key name for Public League teams to note during scouting.

Cedric Wright QB 6-0 196 Germantown High School, Jr.-An accurate thrower who is improving his footwork. Had a breakthrough season and moved up the charts in my mind last year, improvement should be a week to week matter.

Denniston” DJ” Moore WR 6-4 180 Imhotep Charter, So.. – A nice receiver with good size, quickness and toughness. Should move up the charts in the eyes of many.

DeAndre Scott DB-P 5-10 180 Imhotep Charter, Jr. – A defensive player who is a team player as he heads all over the field chasing the ball. I was really impressed last season.

Jordan Alexander LB 6-1 190 Germantown High School, Jr. – A key player on last year’s team Alexander returns and is expected to help lead the Bears in the very challenging Public League AAAA Gold Division.

Andre Dreuitt QB 6-3 175 Imhotep Charter, So. – Developing into a quarterback prospect, has good field vision and a strong arm. He is one to watch.

Anthony Myers HB 6-0 179 Strath Haven, So – Really has the look. You know appears to be a player after only touching the ball a couple of times. but looked . Nice dimensions and should develop.

Ishmael Dargan RB 5-9 180 Germantown High School,So. – A quick back who appers to enjoy playing behind a big line. Dargan can really get down the field.
