To put it simply, he is much bigger than the high school linemen he goes up against. In fact, he may be the biggest football player ever. According to Stephen Spiewak of MaxPreps, Krahn is believed to be the tallest high school player in the country and is taller than any player in NFL history.
According to Spiewak, Krahn has always been big for his age. He was 6'0" in sixth grade, 6'5" as a freshman and 6'8" (and 330 pounds) as a sophomore. And he's just continued to grow.
As the highlight reel of Krahn shows, opposing lines have to team up to block him.
Just watch the video and see how fellow high schoolers fare against Krahn.

Of course depending on the competition he is playing against average HS OL is 250-ish. Hell when I played HS ball is 225 and was DE/DT/OLB and one school had bookend tackles that both were 6'5" 300-ish. At most HS football is about size advantage if your guys are bigger the other team stands no chance. Of course when you get to the major HS programs they are almost like small college programs but your avg PS football team would have all sorts of problems with 7'0" that is 440.

Need to get that kid in a weight program and put him on the hard court. His knees are going to be toast when he gets into College or Pros (if possible).

Kid may luck out and get something from a small college but most likely football is done for him after HS.

He is already getting interest from college coaches but they want him to lose some weight.

the other team is so dumb in the video they dont even double him up


As big as that kid is, may not matter if they double him. They may just think that they are better off if they use the extra man on a different assignment. Who knows?
