Josh Black, OLB, Sickles HS, Tampa

[TEAMTAMPA813]

Black has led the Gryphons in sacks (16) and quarterback hurries (40) each of the past two seasons. He’s third in Tampa Bay with nine sacks and will be pivotal Friday when the Gryphons (5-0) try to disrupt Plant’s Colby Brown, the county’s leading passer.

“He can’t be blocked,†Sickles coach Brian Turner said.

Black’s success comes from his blend of strength, size, speed and instincts.

He benches more than 300 pounds and squats more than 400. In practice, he gets to push himself against a loaded offensive line, led by 285-pound Missouri commit Zach Hudson. During games, he has learned how to bulldoze opponents with his 6-foot-2, 225-pound frame.

 

 

Turner, a game-film junkie, said he hasn’t seen a better defensive player in the county this year than Black. Turner goes so far as to compare Black to James Wilder Jr., the Florida State running back who tallied 145 tackles and 15 sacks as a sophomore linebacker at Chamberlain under Turner.

“He’s the same kind of player that James Wilder is,†Turner said. “He’s as good on defense as James was.â€

If he's actually as good as Wilder was (and is able to qualify), he will be special.  I saw Wilder play in person and he was an animal.
