6'1 180lbs (future 4-star) CB out of Lafayette LA, goes to 5A school Acadiana.
Had a great junior season with 53tcks 24PBU's & 5INT's.
Has ideal prototype size with great long armed frame, has high level ball skills & very good advanced technique. Displays very good physicality out of his stance, has good Press man jam technique to reroute the WR, opens his hips well & tracks the WR. Maintains eye discipline throughout the route, does a terrific job using his arm length winning the inside leverage battle forcing the WR to the outside shoulder off the release, resets his feet & makes quick breaks on the ball. Has concise footwork & transitions smoothly in his backpedal. Very good IQ in coverage while staying in phase, uses his hands properly, isn't overly grabby but recognizes when to make a play on the ball. Has good speed, looks on eye test in the mid 4.5's, but is natural quick twitch athlete with good instincts.
High upside prospect, reminds me of Kristian Fulton. LSU hasn't offered yet, but you'd have to assume when they do they're the Favs.
Holds offers from Bama, UGA, Oklahoma, UF, FSU, Tenn, Ole Miss, Miss St, UVA, Minnesota, Mich St, Nebraska & GTech.
