Looking forward to seeing him at the Rivals camp this weekend. Georgia Tech commit but probably won't end up there. @Matthew_Suero was talking up his performance at 7-on-7 for South Florida Express.

He's small but fits the profile of a lot of former South Florida 2 and 3 star WRs that developed into dynamic separators at the next level. The Browns (Antonio, John and Marquise) come to mind. I'd like to see him run a good 40 at the Opening. Pure speed is important at his size, and it's hard to gauge against his competition level. Track times aren't amazing (11.76 100M). But this guy has special quickness and is a natural receiver with toughness.

His elusiveness and short area quickness were the best in the camp. Didn’t get to see him lined up as a receiver much so I can’t speak on his route running but he is special with the ball in his hand.
 
Honestly, as odd as it sounds given their record last year, I really trust Geoff Collins and his staff's ability to mine the state of Florida for underrated guys (see Rankins, Gowdy (RIP), etc. last year). This guy looks like another Tutu.

Shout out to a a former player of mine Malik Rutherford. I built champions. lol

I coached him in flag throughout middle school and knew his pops a bit. Its no shock he's killing it in 7-on-7...he's built for it. He played for Gwen Cherry before he moved on to Mater Academy and now Champagnat. He could play QB (I would call him Lil Roscoe), WR, DB. Great athlete and plays big. Pure South Florida trash talker, too...some of the savviest trash talk I've ever heard. Hated losing - even a rep in practice. Didn't want practice to end.

He's really small, but idc. He's a dawg and gets the BoxingRobes Highest Recommendation.

I’m sold! WANT!!!
 
Kid is a stud. Putting people on skates and breaking ankles left and right. He has elite elusiveness and looks plenty fast on the field of play. He also seems to possess an uncanny ability to slip tackles. Plays a lot bigger than his stature. Not afraid to mix it up, and blocks very well for a smaller player.

We need more guys that have the bulldog mentality like Santana and Roscoe had. Fearlessness is a trait that is severely underestimated and under appreciated. Hope that we offer him.

watched him play on the same field as Jalen Harrell and decided Harrell was the one to take...
