Kid runs thru a lot of open holes and there is some question regarding the skill level of the competition he plays against; however, I must say, I really like what he brings to the table. Is he Dye or Kamara? No. But, he's pretty electric. Going to be interesting to see what transpires with him.

Johnathan told me that he and Coach Ansley talk alot now and that he's always been pretty close with Coach Hinshaw. I like this kid I think he's offer worthy he has good speed and he runs hard and makes good cuts.

Looks like a typical back from our state. Rough running slasher but he has very good speed.

Doesn't he look like a poor man's version of the type of back Oregon, Cal, Florida, or USC would offer? You know the Justin Forsett, Bigelow, Joe McKnight (HS version)...

Looks like a back that Cal would sneak into their class as a sleeper. Then he would end up with 1,000 yards for 2-3 years for them. Wouldn't mind picking him up period.

Exactly. You hit the nail on the head with that description. The thing I really like about this kid is that his feet are always moving and it appears that he's always thinking of his next move. I guess a better analogy would be he plays like a good point guard...always has his head up looking for an alley.

He's a good back. Wouldn't mind him being the 3rd back in this class. Got a feeling we'll be losing a couple of backs after the season this year.

The may have gotten the FL 3 trio also. L3, Rich Boy and Nigel Harris. Hasn't been confirmed but someone made a tweet about it.

I sure would love to know what in the world Franklin is selling these kids. The backstory of L3 and his dad and academics makes a little sense .... I guess???
