I was really hesitant at first, not gonna lie. But the more I hear about him the more I think it’s the right move. If he has that kind of talent, with the backs/receivers and o-line we have coming back, I say roll with him. There’s another freshman that caught my eye at the lift a thon the other night too. Zamariyon Kendall. That kid is going to be a beast. Like a man amongst boys out there. It’s an exciting time in Big Red Country!
Here’s the skinny that I’ve gathered. Dad is a Martin native since birth. Kid really wants to be a QB and they don’t feel like he’ll get that chance over there. Mom works in Paris already maybe? They also have family over here too. Guess that’s what made HC the destination. Was told the kid has true leadership qualities on top of being a good athlete. Very intelligent. All in on coming over here. Guy I talked to said he was around 6’0” and maybe 150-160 pounds. That’s about all I have. Sounds promising!
Haha, I did. Me too, that incoming freshman class from Inman is already stacked, you throw him in there and look out! I have a couple contacts in the Martin area, going to hit them up and see what I can find out about him.
I don’t know enough about the upcoming junior to really speak on it, but from what I saw in the spring and watching those highlights I tend to agree with you. He looks to have good size, I wonder if he’s grown anymore since football season?
I found his Twitter account. Pretty impressive. Also plays seven on seven with some elite team out of Memphis. Apparently he’s a baseball and basketball player too. This just keeps getting better. I still don’t know if he can start as a freshman in 5A football, but he looks as good or better than the spring QB now in my opinion.
Wow. They threw it a lot for a jr high team. I can see why though. That kid is good. That play around the 2:30 mark near the goal line where he saw the flat route covered, scrambled, and kept his eyes up to hit the guy in the end zone was really impressive.
You may be right. I don’t know a lot about him except from what I’ve heard from a few. Apparently he’s really legit, and some think he’s got a shot to play immediately. Will be tough for a true freshman though. I guess we’ll see.
