At 6-9 with strength, versatility, Elkhorn South OL and 2021 Husker commit Prochazka 'checks all the boxes'

George Drinnin Sr. has coached thousands of high school football players over his 41-year career.

He’s seen them in all shapes and sizes and at all ability levels. There’s one thing he hadn’t done until recently.

That might only be the slightest of exaggerations, but suffice it to say Drinnin, the former Omaha Northwest head coach and current offensive line coach at Elkhorn South, has seen very few players like Teddy Prochazka, his 6-foot-9, 285-pound left tackle and a recent addition to Nebraska’s budding 2021 recruiting class.

“As he’s put on quality weight and become even more explosive — and he’s always been very aggressive — it’s been nice to see the growth in his game,” Elkhorn South head coach Guy Rosenberg said.
