Tulane Green Wave Season Preview: Pats Deep Dive Recruiting @beinthekneaux Class of 27 OL Stafford Willis- @Stafford_55 6-5/290 Arab, AL He is a long, powerful, and athletic tackle prospect with prototype size, elite pass-protection pedigree (zero sacks or pressures allowed in two years as a varsity starter), and dominant run-blocking traits that have fueled one of the fastest-rising recruiting profiles in the 2027 Alabama OL class. Willis is a high-character, multi-sport leader (team captain, basketball) with exceptional academics and a punishing, high-motor mentality. •  Run Blocking: Plays with outstanding leverage, explosive power off the snap, and relentless drive. Consistently opens wide rushing lanes, drives defenders backward, and finishes blocks with a punishing mentality. •  Pass Protection: Elite technician with size, length, quick feet/hands, and balance. Mirrors rushers effectively, anchors against bull rushes, and provides a consistently clean pocket. His 0-sack/0-pressure streak over two years highlights rare reliability. •  Athleticism & Versatility: Long-striding athlete who can handle tackle duties on either side or slide inside. Quickness and coordination allow him to recover and redirect against speed rushers. •  Intangibles: High football IQ, high motor, team captain, and strong character. Multi-sport background translates to body control and toughness.
