That kid looks like a Texas HS LB named Dylan. Welcome!
I try not to get too hyped about hudl highlight videos, but this kid has some eye popping tape. His closing speed is incredible, and he hits like you want your inside linebacker to hit. He is going to be a playmaker
Another thing about his tape is that he seemed to do a good job of wrapping up the ball carrier. He grabbed, held on, and in a few cases "alligator rolled" the ball carrier.
Regarded as a three-star recruit, Luke Kuechly was listed as the No. 44 outside linebacker prospect in the class of 2009. See some similarities here.
WF RS Freshman TE Drelyn Ford (HS class of 2019) has entered the transfer portal. Weird timing. Bummer -- he was a highly rated HS basketball and has good height and athleticism.
Too bad about Ford. Sounded like he had the size/tools to really develop.
Does anyone with inside connections have any idea about (a) how many scholarships we are likely to have left and (b) who are the players and positions we are prioritizing to finish off this class?
I think I’m going to be really disappointed this fall when we don’t play a regular season of football. I feel very good about this team - skill and depth - and it will be shame if they don’t get to show it on the field. Fingers crossed.
Curious about LB recruiting.
We seem to start with 6-7 guys plus walk-ons, then end up very thin.
If guys are coming back healthy, we have a very nice 2- deep, but I don't know if JaQuez or Masterson will be playing a Rover (2 LB's and a Rover). That always confuses me.
Overall
D-line: ridiculously strong. Boogie is starting the season as a Second Team All American!!!!!
LB: 2-deep is very good.
S: strong, need a few guys to be working on tackling all summer and early fall.
CB: only real question mark.
