Scout.com Player Evaluation:
STRENGTHS
 Athleticism
 Lateral Movement
 Pass Coverage Skills
AREAS FOR IMPROVEMENT
 Size
Sideline to sideline he is one of the most athletic looking linebackers in the country. Shows outstanding lateral movement. Forbes excels in pass coverage. His size will likely dictate that he plays inside, but his skills may be best as a weakside outside backer. Very competitive and a leader on the field, needs to show better consistency and show he is hungry. Very intelligent player and should excel in the right scheme.--Bob Lichtenfels/Scout


Biography:
2008: Nick Forbes was selected First Team All-Conference as a linebacker and running back, and 2nd Team All-State at linebacker. He was also named to the All-Area team and won the Area Defensive Player of the Year; Forbes finished his season with 96 total tackles, 67 solos, six tackles for loss, four sacks and two interceptions (one returned for a touchdown). Offensively, he had 143 rushes for 1,176 yards and 15 scores. He also caught eight balls for 81 yards. He also competes in track (shot: 51-11, discus: 163-7), but only plans on playing football in college. Forbes says he can bench 330-pounds, squat 475 and claims a 34-inch vertical jump.

Forbes was named to the Scout.com All-Combine Team for his performance at the Army All-American combine in January 2009.

Forbes reports a 3.6 core GPA and a 1030 SAT (two-parts) and expects to retake the test on March 14. Forbes is enrolled in all honors classes, including calculus.

Forbes: “I cover the field from sideline-to-sideline and play very aggressive. I’m a leader on the defense and go hard every play. I’m always going after the ball and never stop.

“I definitely want to make bigger hits though. There’s been a few times where I hit a guy and didn’t get the kind of impact I wanted. I want to be able to make that big hit…an impact type hit.”
