Diaco is interested in him as a ILB according to Rivals

 

[BeauBenken]

Big hips. He'd be a hell of a FB or power back. He looks BIG for a LB though.

He's clearly quite an athlete though so we will see.

 

[GoldenIsThyFame]

Where is the too short crowd at?

 

[ryno 24]

He's 6'2 thats not too short for Diaco.

 

[rtrn2glory]

too bad there's no defensive highlights on the tape...agree with the coaches that his ceiling is on the defensive side of the ball

WINGSPAN PLZ.

Seriously. Recruiting services need to get on this.

This kid runs the way Rob Hughes should have been running day 1.

I could really see this kid on the defensive side of the ball though.

That guy's REALLY thick for being a JR in HS that's going to play a position that covers in LB. He's almost closer to being a project NG than ILB. IDK.

I was thinking of him more as a CAT or even a smallish DE.

To be honest, I like him at RB. It just happens that we're in really good shape with limited spots for RBs.

I don't like him on defense.

This guy is Ron Dayne 2.0.

 

[NDWorld247]

Similar Ht/Wt as Manti...Would love to see some defensive tape of him. ILB is the only position that I'm nervous about this recruiting cycle.

I'm a fan of his. Favorite song is probably "Cocktales"

Kind of raunchy for a recruit's profile IMO...

 

[stlnd01]

Dude's built like Prince Shembo.

 

[NDinMich]

Where is the too short crowd at?

I saw his measurements, then the MSU offer and immediately thought of Le'Veon Bell

 

[CanadalovesND]

Dude's got the lower body of Earl Campbell!

 

[Da Rattlensnakes]

Its West Deptford with no "h".

 

[Irish.Ca]

Dude's built like Prince Shembo.

Ya, but can he punt?

 

[dublinirish]

Fullback you say?
