What makes you stand out as a future collegiate athlete?
I am one of the hardest working football players ever. I lead my team in sacks and pass rushes. I am a pass rushing defensive end.
Hayes has good length and long arms, which allows him to get really good leverage on the lineman and get off his block quickly. He is really quick off the ball and really like his hustle down field chasing after the ball carrier. Hayes could potentially grow into a DT, but right now he looks like a run stopping SDE at the next level. Hayes is a quality defensive line recruit, his versatility and nice frame should make him a fairly coveted recruiting heading towards NSD.
