Film: Zach Redd Highlights

Coach Choate on Redd: “Zach Redd is another highly-productive multi-year starter from Rocky Mountain High School, another one of the better high schools in Idaho. They won a state championship his junior year. His tape is probably as good as there is in the FCS in terms of how he plays the center position. He’s an interior offensive lineman with very long arms and finishes blocks very well. He’s a highly intelligent football player, and a kid who exemplifies the characteristics of leadership and toughness that we’re looking for.”
