'15 IL WR Miles Boykin (Notre Dame Signed NLI)

[peoriairish]

This kid is my favorite skill player in this class. I think he's going to be a stud. With his size and fluidness.... I'm sold.

 

[Bubbles]

Very refreshing to see a kid that actually thinks about the question and crafts an intelligible response unlike this

Providence bounces back with win over McNamara

He's good.

Really surprised no one has said a thing about how he spent his time at ND with two TEs.

I read that too. I think once he totally grows into his body with a little help from Longo...he's all TE. Could be wrong.

He's got a long way to go before he has a TE body.

 

[Booslum31]

He's got a long way to go before he has a TE body.

Agree...a couple of years. It will be good to have another big target out wide...he'll be a bitch to cover.

 

[arrowryan]

He's got a long way to go before he has a TE body.

I doubt he'll be a TE that lines up next to a tackle to help in the running game. If he grows into a TE, he'll be a receiving TE and be about 235-240 pounds IMO

I'm thinking this as well. He's not a burner but his frame doesn't look like it'd take 30 more lbs. No matter what, I'm glad he's signing with the good guys.

 

[GoldenDomer]

Out of Semper Fi game due to injury. Anybody got anything?

Recovering from surgery on his finger or hand, one or the other.

 

[Ironman8]

His senior highlights are......um....impressive. Somewhat of a forgotten man right now in this class, but Miles could be very, very good at ND:

Senior Year Highlights - Miles Boykin highlights

 

[Irish Fam]

I love that he runs a variety of routes in high school: slants, go's, outs, fades, screens.

And the best part is that we don't need him to contribute right away. He can adjust to the college game and step in a year or two from now and make some plays.

 

[IrishFanJMercy]

He looks extremely quick for a guy his size. Wow.. I thought he was a lot slower, could make a huge impact for us.

 

[Calabrese's People]

Miles 'Brandon Marshall' Boykins, WR Notre Dame....

 

[EuropeanDomer]

Wow, he can make people miss and looks very polished catching the ball. He looks better than Alize despite being a three star. I think we will have the best receiver group in the nation.

I agree that he is unexpectedly evasive for his size and his senior film looks great, but his competition is not in the same league as Alize's.

 

[greyhammer90]

How is that his high school qb can throw a better end zone fade than any ND qb in the last ten years?

Thanks for posting. Most disagreed with me early when I made the case that Boykin was far better than ESB. Cool if we get them both, but this is the crown jewel of this years class IMHO

 

[Bogtrotter07]

Just one of those questions that has no answer . . .

This kid can block too! How many high school wide receivers fall into that category? Off tape : This kid also seems to have a top end work ethic.

I picture ESB on the outside, Boykin on the other side, Alize in the slot, and those 3 mauling downfield DBs while Dexter goes 0 to 100 #RealQuick.

I have to say Jimmy threw a nice ball.

 

[NDPhilly]

That route running is dirty. Think I like him more than ESB.
