Another solid night for Hawthorne, against Boone.
25 carries, 198 yards, 3 TD. Gilbert won 35-21.

A name like that he should be solving mysteries with his dog Spot in his 1950s era small town America.
He’d be a fantastic H-Back. I love Klotz but I think a slightly smaller, more agile guy could be a better lead blocker and more of a threat with the ball in his hands. Klotz will occasionally lose balance getting through the line and not get to the second level.
Do they post his defensive stats? His offensive stats are impressive, but curious about the other side of the ball since that's what he'll be here.
If he's recruited as a linebacker I think that would be the first position I'd want him to play. A lot of the players can play multiple positions but don't. I'd prefer a great linebacker recruit over a tight end or fullback recruit any day. Way more important position. Behind QB, DL, and OL I think it's the most important position on the field.
Hawthorne with 33 carries for another 250 yards tonight against Carlisle. Will well over 1k yards

Will Hawthorne named 2024 MaxPreps Iowa High School Football Player of the Year
MaxPreps News - Two-way standout led Gilbert to best season in nine years.
6 of the top 10 in 2025 are Cyclones, 3 HaLks, 1 JayHaLk.
There's talk of us flipping an unnamed recruit committed to another P4 school during signing day tomorrow. Maybe it's him.
That would be a nice one. Maybe he realized it's impossible to win at Kansas on a regular basis.
Think the flip is previous Stanford committ OL, Vaea Ikakoula....
Sans 1 play, they were really good. That 1 play was REALLY bad though. Brought flashbacks of akrum wadley vs isu.
