Red Bank (N.J.) Catholic defensive tackle Kade Weston is quick on the field, but just the opposite in recruiting. He wants to be sure of everything before he cuts any team, which has not happened just yet.

Kade Weston Profile

“It’s good. I don’t know any teams that I am favoring; I’m wide open,” says the 6-foot-5, 300 pounder. “Maryland, Florida, Florida State, Ohio State, Oklahoma, and USC are just some of the schools I am looking at.

Teams will have to rely on film as Weston wants to stay at home and work on the grueling tests he is certain to come open in a tough senior season.

“I am not going to camps this summer. I am running and lifting and I will be getting in shape, because I’ll be playing both sides of the ball. I’m excited about playing both sides, but I don’t want to play offense in college. I want to stay on defense.”

It is rather obvious as to Weston’s talent, and he says the important part to his game is in his lower body.

“I’m aggressive and I have quick feet. I am pretty fast for my size, and I will be doing the same thing I did last year like move from sideline to sideline and making tackles.”

That aggression and speed shows up in Weston’s weight-room numbers with a 325 bench press, 20 bench reps at 185 pounds, and a squat of 490 pounds. He also runs a 5.0 40-yard dash.

Weston is taking baby steps in his decision-making process, and the first will come soon.

“The first thing I am going to do is narrow it down to 10 schools sometime this summer.”
