H.S. Scouting Report
Evaluated 01/17/2024
Projection
Power 4 StarterRural, small-town multi-sport star with dynamic natural athleticism that suggests immense long-term upside. Highly productive receiver with 1,500-plus receiving yards as a junior. Showed improved speed-changing nuance, top-end speed, ball-winning consistency, and mid-air body control as a senior. Owns ample two-way snaps at wideout and in the secondary. Above-the-rim highlight reel on the basketball floor, which perhaps reveals a more accurate representation of his pure athleticism. Also a track and field standout with 6-6 high jump and 22-0 long jump numbers as a junior. Raw technically and may need time to hone his craft. Also faces significant jump in competition level coming from rural, small-school background. Patience developing him could pay off in a big way. Possesses the tape, on-field profile, and athletic catalog that suggest excellent long-term developmental potential.
