Lemming, meanwhile, has found out who that "monster" lineman is -- it's Christian Lombard, and he's only a sophomore.

Lombard, Lemming notices, moves his feet well for a big man, gets downfield to block linebackers and "keeps his motor running" every play.

Lemming predicts he'll be one of the most recruited players in the state in two years.

Lombard, a 6-6, 285-pounder, is only 15 years old and hasn't begun to shave. But he has the physical tools and skills to develop into a prototypical left tackle in college. Notre Dame, Michigan, Indiana and Michigan State are leading the early chase.

''I've been coaching for 29 years and he is potentially the best lineman I've had,'' Fremd coach Mike Donatucci said. ''He made the transition from freshman to varsity without a hitch, and very few kids can do that. He has size and maturity and outstanding feet.''

Recruiting analyst Tom Lemming saw Lombard three times last season.

''He was one of the best offensive tackles in the state at the end of the season even though he was a sophomore. If he was a senior, he would have had scholarship offers. He wasn't intimidated by older kids,'' Lemming said.
