Camping today at Elite Skills 3.

Everybody says they want an Anquan Boldin, well here he is. Problem is will he stay that size over the next 5 years.

Good tape as he uses grown man strength and balance to house HS secondaries.

Posted 55 rec / 800+ yds / 7 TD's his Soph year.

Had a nice overall score at the New Yersey Opening with a score of 101.04. Problem was his 40 of 4.91 which he has time to correct somewhat and his game isn't based on burner times. He also put up:

Shut = 4.32
PB = 40.5
Vert = 31.6

Could the Irish use a 6-2/225 WR down the road? Or will they see value in him as a Buck/Mike prospect.

Would be interesting to know where the other schools are recruiting him at.

I wasn't blown away by his WR film and based on the current CB's we have with WR in 2020 and other WR in general I don't think he is a take. On defense I think he is a buck but I didn't see a lot of that in his film so I can't really say if he would be better at D than O.

In the other thread I said that he'll probably play defense because he's already 220 pounds. After watching this video, I could be wrong. Maybe he's a unicorn.

I'll be interested to see his film next year. He looked faster at the camp

Read a Rivals article stating that he is primarily being recruited at LB by Lea.

Brian Dohn gave him a PSU CB this morning. Coming off the Syracuse game visit and the fact it's Dohn = Not good.

Of course, not sure ND needs another LB until 2022.

After the last two classes we’ll probably be very selective at LB.

How does Penn State land these kids yet we just had a bunch of kids visit and no one popped?

???

It's their 4th commit in 2020. Same as ND and they are lower rated than the Irish.

I seriously doubt they were still recruiting Jacobs very hard, if at all.
