One glance at any of Demario McCall's highlight reels is all it takes to learn the North Ridgeville product is tough to bring down.
But that's the task a group of aspiring collegiate linebackers faced this weekend at The Opening's regional finals at The Ohio State University.
In Demario's first run in one-on-one drills (0:54 in the video), Hazel Green, Alabama's Aaron Atkinson doesn't fall for McCall's (explosive) cutback and swallows him up.
The second time around (2:20), however, McCall eviscerates 2018's Antwaun Johnson, a linebacker out of Springfield, Ohio. (In the background, a soothsaying coach hollers, "Got 'em!" moments before Johnson is left clutching at air.)

One might point out it's a matchup that favors McCall, but let's be real: Those mismatches are going to be just as abundant on the next level.
