This thread is going to take some work to keep on point. Good luck mods!

Admittedly at work, and don't have time to watch his video, but the measurables look very nice for a LB given that they are legit.

Could be an important recruit here.

As Duff has been emphasizing, we need edge rushers at 6'4" and above. Long arms are an advantage beating a blocker on a pass rush in space, keeping blockers from getting into your body on stretch runs & screens, and to disrupt passing windows.

Yes sir, I'd like to see this kid in Black and Gold. Like the way he battles through double teams.

 

[KyleM.]

He has a twin brother, both are all-district basketball players too.

 

[BuffHerd]

Very intriguing prospect. Clearly athletic

 

[GoonieBuff]

Rivals shows he's committed to SMU.

 

[Buffnik]

Rivals shows he's committed to SMU.

And that he committed today. Damn.

 

[KyleM.]

SMU had a big week

Hopefully we stay on him. We were late to the game. I think we'll get quite a bit more talk of the Big 5 conferencess over the next 6 months. He committed to a school that was BCS last year. He may realize Colorado is a more attractive landing spot.

 

[Swish]

Somebody is closing pretty well I'd say.

 

[FlatironsBuff]

Well, SMU has been known to do that in the past rather well. (response to FIM)

 

[FlaBuff]

"Son, you can showcase against Memphis, Tulane and UCF on regional TV or go global against USC, Oregon and UCLA. What will really test your mettle?"

 

[boydbuff]

Is hard to understand why any kid would choose non-BCS when he has legit BCS offers. Maybe he grew up rooting for them. Or maybe they are the only team to offer him and his twin brother?

A lot can happen in his recruitment; don't think he'll end up with the Buffs, but would not surprise me if he didn't end up with the Mustangs.
