Small school sleeper who made a name for himself at the LA Nike Camp this past weekend. Those measurables are accurate, so he has the size and speed to be an impact LB at the next level.

One of the prospects who came in under the radar but really jumped on the map was Tulare (Calif.) Mission Oak's Kevin Palma. Palma, who measured 6-1.5, 235 on Saturday at the Sparq Combine, was quick off the edge and might have been the most athletic linebacker there. A day after recording the second highest Sparq rating at the Long Beach Combine, Palma was just as good in football-specific drills. In drills where running backs had to pass block the linebackers, he twice blew past the back without being touched to get to the bag. He looked good in the positional drills and the 1on1s until tweaking his arm. Expect Palma's recruitment to pick up as more schools find him in Central California. The coaches raved about Palma's play at the conclusion of the day.

Kevin Palma, LB, Mission Oak – Not only was Palma one of the better linebackers in attendance on Sunday, but he preceded that by scoring the second highest rating at the SPARQ combine on Saturday. At 6-2, 235 pounds, Palma is a 4.7 guy in the 40 yard dash and he ran a 4.15 short shuttle. Look for his recruitment to really take off in the coming months.

Who is recruiting him? Cabral? EB? Need to get the big guns after this kid, IMO.
 
"I definitely want to see Colorado, that's one of my top schools," Palma said. "I will probably take an official visit there and to San Diego State. I'm sure I'll get back to UCLA again too at some point. Those schools are recruiting me hard, especially Colorado and Oregon State."

Would be huge. Moved into the top 247 on 247 (#236) and is not a 4* on two sites. We need Cabral to close here!

This is one of the "must gets" of this cycle, without a doubt. Not just his talent, but to beat out UCLA and others in the process. Vital that this starts to happen.
 
So it sounds like he is taking an unofficial to Oregon St this Aug and an official to CU this Sept?
 
Well, at least there's some good news to be had in the recruit threads tonight - c'mon, Kevin, BLACK AND GOLD IS FOR YOU!
 
Another update from AZ:

"With Colorado, I have gotten to know the staff pretty well and I like them a lot. I speak often with Coaches Embree and Cabral. I actually just spoke with Coach Embree, on Sunday, right after he got back from his vacation to South Africa. I feel real comfortable with the coaches at Colorado. They seem like really nice guys that know their stuff. They have talked to me about coming there and playing on the outside where I would cover the tight end. Coach Cabral has put a lot of linebackers into the pros and that is my ultimate goal."

A staff member chimed in from another site saying it's a CU vs. UCLA battle.
