2020 TOP DT RECRUIT

2020 top DT recruit Vinny Carnazzo is a complete hellion in the trenches and a dominant force upon engagement. He gets off the football very well and has an outstanding base, as far as his brute strength is concerned, when evaluating tape. As I explained on his Scout Trout Elite lineman profile below, Vinny can fight through a double team and shows great technique in getting to the quarterback. He extends his arms very well to keep blockers off of him and can be seen demolishing the lead blocker on the second play of his junior season highlight's, to arrive at the QB for the sack. Lining up as the left defensive end, Vinny can be seen extending the play beautifully to the sideline on the third play and once again uses great technique to disengage from the offensive linemen. On the very next play, Carnazzo is seen beautifully avoiding the cut block and gets his hands up abruptly to cause a turnover for the Heritage football team, that goes all the way to the house! 

TOP 2020 DL RECRUIT

Top 2020 DL recruit Carnazzo is also very stout in stopping the run, as he achieved 57 tackles on the season, with 19 of those coming for a loss. When watching him shed blockers, he is easily able to plug the running lane and devours the ball carrier before he can get up field. Out on the edge once again at around 1:57 into his highlight tape, it appears that blockers had enough of dealing with the tenacity this young man displays, as his first punch is extremely efficient at detaching from offensive linemen. He is able to read plays very well, as seen on the very next play and come down inside to make plays with his superior athletics. Vinny is a very quick offensive linemen for his stature and plays a lot like Ed Oliver in the way he can track down ball carriers from the backside. 

TOP DT RECRUIT RANKINGS

Top DT recruit rankings at College Football Today now feature Vinny Carnazzo at number six overall, as his game tape clearly matches his statistics.
