The classic East vs. West match-up will be played and televised live on NBC January 7th at 12:00 p.m. (CST) and will feature the top 78 prep football student-athletes in the country.
Robert Rose is the number twelve ranked defensive end in the country by Scout.com and is a member of the Midwest Hot 100. At 6-4, 240 pounds, Rose hard runner with great strength and athletic ability.
"Rose is a hot prospect and he has the scholarship offers to prove it. I love his athleticism and his ablity to close on the football. Raw. Only played football for one year. Huge upside. Gets off the ball quickly and makes plays. Good awareness locating the ball. Excellent pass rusher," says Chris Pool of Scout.com.
"I've got great quickness and I'm faster than most DLs or OLs out there. I react quicker than most players," says Rose. "I want to work on getting my hands on players quicker to get them out of the way and read blocks better."
Rose has yet to make a commitment and is looking at Florida, Illinois, LSU, North Carolina, Ohio State, and USC.
