WORDS FROM THE HEAD COACH:

Logan is drawing D1 attention from FBS schools, a massive young man that was a two-way starter since his Freshman season for us. He is very athletic for his size, and has ability to run and pass protect.  Logan possesses explosive power to displace people off the line of scrimmage and can get up on the second level along with executing blocks in space.

Defensively, Logan is a load to move, he can clog a hole, apply pressure and makes his presence known and opposing teams must account for him with their blocking schemes.
