Like his teammate, Will Jackson, Howard isn't in any of the databases. BuffScoop got the info on this one.

Howard plays Quarterback for the Wheatley team and was 1st Team All-District as a junior. LINK

Also plays some WR and CB.

Besides Kanavis working Wheatley H.S. on the recruiting trail, Lawrence Vickers originally went to H.S. there and is visible at the school. That's helping our cause a lot.

Hmm doesn't seem like the highlights are working anymore. Bummer. Either way from what I recall, Howard looked like more of a safety prospect to me. Not sure he has the quickness to be a CB, but what the hell do I know.

I'm hearing that he plans on visiting TTU and CU - no dates announced yet. TTU wants him as a CB, CU recruiting him as a straight athlete - find a spot for him later.

Interesting. Looks like a solid athlete

 

[lawdogg]

Seemingly a decent athlete in his own right, but if we could get him and his buddy Will Jackson, that would be a very good thing.

Nik can confirm this, but Jackson seems to have some concerns with grades. Great looking athlete however.

I'd heard some of the rumors, but hoping against hope I guess.

Agreed. Jackson's tape looked great. Are there any concerns with grades for Mr. Howard?
