He has 37 pancake blocks in four games this season. The 6-foot-5, 300-pound road grader was impressive enough to earn scholarship offers from the likes of Wisconsin, Pittsburgh and Ohio State. Kalis ended his recruitment early by giving Ohio State his verbal commitment. "Kyle is 6-foot-5 and about 300 pounds but it his ability to practice and play at an intense level and he plays hard every snap in practice and in a game," said St. Edward's coach Rick Finotti. "Kyle is a student of the game, continually studying film and technique and he strives to become the best he can be. Kyle is a great young man who is also a good teammate, leader and worker. He has a blue collar approach in the weight room and field."Corey Smith (Akron, Ohio/Buchtel)
