Julius McClellan – RB
Lee Co.

#2 RUNNING BACK


HT: 6’1″
WT: 195
Class: 2022

Back when we jotted down McClellan’s name a few years back he was just 155 lbs., and now the 2022 recruit has grown to be around 180. Good gains for sure, but the main reason we wrote his name down was the impressive running instincts he has shown. The 2022 recruit is very good at getting off tackles, and doesn’t go down easy stepping out of tackles and using a very strong stiff arm. McClellan is a vertical runner with slashing like mindset. He’s not looking for many cuts, but just gets up field and breaks tackles. He has pretty good pad level, but could get better. Very good at bouncing off tacklers regardless. For just 180 lbs., he has some really good upside, and think a 15-20 lbs. jump here and he’ll be one of the better senior rushers in this recruiting class. His north south running approach is a no nonsense in getting yardage, but would like to see a little more cutback vision against the grain, especially when he gets to the 2nd level. Would also like to see him use his blockers a little better, and just be a little more patient in reading the defense, not every player needs to drawn into contact.
