Visiting tomorrow with fellow IL DE, Cam Mattox. Interesting fact, Miamen's Dunlap squad beat Mattox Hillcrest team in the playoffs.

Miamen plays downstate in a rural area outside of Peoria.

Good two way player, had around 300 yds in 8 (reported) games.

Nice offer list for an ND recruit.

Freebie from 247:

Loy and Wiltfong CB's for ND after IlliniInquirer analyst Jeremy Werner flipped his Northwestern CB to ND.

NW still has a CB from the other Illini guy Gus Ramos, but that will flip in 3-2-1.

With Princeton, Columbia and NW offers, there would seem to be no hurdles so this could be over quick.

 

[NDIrish88]

Is a DE or TE? Maybe we sign him and if we don't land the DE we want we make him a TE

 

[Irish#1]

Wish we could land some tip 4 star and 5 star kids that fast.

 

[NDIrish88]

Watched his film again and he should really be rated as a 4 star athlete. Kid is super fast on film but it doesn't look like he plays against great competition. At least when he is on defense

If he didn't pan out at Drop, he could be a flex TE. He's a cross between Claypool and Tremble

 

[NDIrish88]

He looks like it offensively. Is he being recruited as a DE?

[NDIrish88]

Really like this kid. I'd take him him he wants in

 

[NDinMI]

Offered by Penn St yesterday and by scUM today. Interested to see how this one unfolds. Is this ND & MI plan B after Dicosmo?

I think he's a little further down the list than that.

 

[NDIrish88]

He shouldn't be. He has great speed. If he adds.some weight he could play drop easy

 

[NDinMI]

A few scUM CB's after his recent offer. Guy has a pretty nice little offer list now.

 

[BobbyMac]

He may not be #2 on the overall WDE Big Board but he's #2 on the Realistic Board right now.

Bralen Trice is the only other guy who is even worth mentioning and a public school kid from AZ with all the PAC offers + Bama doesn't compute on the ole Crusadodore 64.

Plus, I could see him and Brenton Strange being ND's top WR's in '22. Love ND's recent interest in proven 2-way players.

thought drop was discomso trice then miamen? In that order. I agree could he a receiver too. Film shows great speed

 

[NDinMI]

I think MI has offered him as a TE. Maybe that's why the quick love. Most other schools have offered him as a DE correct?

 

[BobbyMac]

I'm sure it is but is Trice realistic? Currently, the AZ street says no.

No not really. But I think an interesting scenario would be dicosmo at wde and take miamen at TE. Down the line they can convert him

 

[ab2cmiller]

Loy, Wiltfong, and a Iowa analyst all threw down CB's for Iowa today.
