5A Southern Idaho Conference football players to watch

Standing 6-foot-2 and 225 pounds, the senior has the potential to be a steamroller with the football.

He played in all 11 games for the Eagles last season, totaling 179 carries for 889 yards and 12 touchdowns with one fumble.

Hagler was named to the 2015 all-5A SIC second team behind seniors Pedro King of Nampa, Jake Roper of Rocky Mountain and Jace Forrey of Borah.

It may be the year of the big guy in the 5A SIC, as Kuzmack is one of numerous linemen with the potential to play Division I football.

The 6-5, 285-pound senior committed to Washington State in July. He said he also had offers from Boise State and Colorado State.

“He’s a great technician, and he’s a team-oriented guy, “Eagle coach Paul Peterson said. “He’s quiet, but he’s obviously a big-time football player.”

Coaches throughout the state took notice of the Grizzlies’ 6-1, 270-pound offensive lineman, voting him to the All-Idaho first team in 2015.

Redd will be a four-year letterman and three-year starter for the defending state champions, who averaged 301.5 rushing yards per game last season.

Coach Scott Criner said Redd has scholarship offers from Idaho, Montana State, Portland State and Army.

“Big and strong,” Timberline coach Kirk Copeland said.
