Followed by Chev. Offers from some programs with coaches recruiting his area that I respect on their talent evaluations.

Whoa. Targeting a player from NE Dallas county this time. This school is not too far from South Fork Ranch.

With how much time we are spending in Texas these last few days + that he is now following Chidera, Baer, HCMM, and also picked up a follow from HCMM, I think this is a guy we feel we can land. Love his film.

How much you wanna make a bet he can throw a football over them mountains?.

Our coaches are following his dad and vice versa now

Another ILB we hadn't heard about in a couple months. @KyleM. has a great interview with 2018 DB Isaiah Humphries (4* from TX) he just posted. Contained some promising words about Jeffers:

Humphries said. “[Jeffers] has Oklahoma State, Mississippi State, I don’t know if he has Arkansas yet. I think he has 20-some offers. He likes Colorado a lot.

If you can get 2 of Horton, Jeffers, Noa, and Fa'ave you take them. Crap, I'd take all 4 and let it get sorted out on the field.
