Tom Lemming of Prep Football Report: "I filmed at Paramus Catholic, and he's a guy who has good ability and good feet, moves well. He's tough and aggressive with ability, but not yet a dominating player. He's a big-bodied guy who can move his feet, and that's what Michigan wants." Why Bushell-Beatty Chose Michigan: "I think that what they were trying to show us is that this isn't just a football team with a school attached like some other places. They're going to prepare us for not only football, but really turn us into leaders and men, and great student-athletes." Head Coach's Comments: "Juwann is a very humble young man, who is very honored to be doing what he's doing," noted Paramus Catholic head coach Chris Partridge. "He's got an extremely hard work ethic. He's never going to quit. He's never going to back down. He goes at it 100 percent at all times. "He had a sprained knee this year, and he played a little banged up. Not only did he not take a rep off of practice for the starting unit, he ran scout team of- fensive line against our defense — every rep, all year long. He wouldn't even come out of that, because he knew how important that was, to not only help him, but give us a look. It just shows you his character and how he's into the team. He's a special young man, and he's going to work his way onto the field and be a great player." Rivals.com rates Bushell-Beatty a three-star prospect and the No. 11 player overall in the state of New Jersey. PHOTO BY TIM SULLIVAN
