The best safety prospect in the Trinity League. Projects to be a FS. Good coverage skills and length. Matched up as well against Javon McKinley as anyone.

Wants to visit ND per this Scout / Biggins piece:

DB Brandon McKinney Will Check out Notre Dame, Pac-12 Schools This Coming Spring/Summer - Football Recruiting - Scout

 

[BobbyMac]

Good to hear he's planning another visit to ND soon, visited with his B2G 7v7 team last year. Also good to hear he's going to check out Duke too... at least you know his head is in the right place. Well spoken for sure. It'll be interesting to see what happens when Stanford comes out of the closet.

I'm beginning to have a strong dislike for the tree.

Welcome to the party... grab a beer and an axe.

Brandon Huffman @ Scout reports ND still talking with Brandon McKinney. Staying in touch in case their tier one prospects wash out it looks like.

4-star S Brandon McKinney Planning Summer Visits - Football Recruiting - Scout

A few other schools are showing interest in McKinney and could offer soon.
"I've been talking with Notre Dame, Oregon, Oregon State and Washington State," said McKinney. "Washington State actually likes me as a receiver."
McKinney, though, said everyone else is recruiting him as a safety.

Committed to Washington

I hope the remaining safety prospects ND are after work out because I'm sure McKinney would have given ND a serious look. Washington is doing a great job with high character kids who just happen to be high ceiling kids also.
