Stacy Gage

A thicker, tempo-based runner with ample power and adequate burst. Spent senior season working in a three-man committee at St. Thomas Aquinas after stints at both IMG Academy and Tampa Wharton. Short-stepping run style allows him to shake defenders while a nice forward lean and impressive leg drive allows him to plow through contact. Owns above-average vision and is usually quick to process. Should be viewed as a physical ball carrier that will bang between the tackles and fight for yardage. Needs to keep improving as a pass blocker, but build suggests that he can chip large pass rushers and help keep the pocket. Lack of production is a bit concerning as he heads off to college, but could thrive as a change-of-pace option in a modern spread-attack.
