Taylor Doll talks with Keith Morehouse, ports director for WSAZ-TV in Huntington, West Virginia, about Marshall EDGE prospect Mike Green.

On her latest Making Monsters, Taylor Doll is joined by Keith Morehouse, sports director for WSAZ-TV in Huntington, West Virginia, who covers Marshall football. They discuss EDGE prospect Mike Green, his impressive 17-sack season, the impact he made on their defensive line, and where he fits best on a defense. They also go over Green’s sexual assault allegations from his time at Virginia, and how he landed at Marshall after a one-year hiatus.

Teams will no doubt vet him thoroughly, but his on-field talent is undeniable.

“It’s kind of hard to describe why he’s good at what he does,” Morehouse said, “except when he just does it. Like, he’s got the quickness and he’s got the burst, and then he has that power to go. A lot of sack guys are just, he’s just gonna go get the quarterback. Well, he can peel off that and go get the guy coming the other way, or he can track down the running back on the backside.”

“That’s, to me, that’s what his gift is. He’s got the ability to bull rush if he needs to, and somehow he’s got an array of moves to get free, and obviously he’s gonna face some huge offensive tackles in the NFL, but his ability to change directions, he’s got a bunch of swim moves, and you know, for us that he gets to the quarterback.”

“I just feel like he’s got a good toolbox and the athleticism to go with that. I think that’s what makes him so dangerous as a defensive lineman.”
