| Very impressive film. I'm surprised he is not listed as an athlete because he plays all over the field. Despite his weight, he seems to play pretty physical as well. |

| He has informed all colleges recruiting him he wants to play WR. He is a tremendous safety also. |

| I'll take him to replace Patrick since he won't make the grades anyway. |

Anyway, kid looks good! Glad to see CBJ is hitting the ground running and going after talented guys. volterp's comment about him being a tremendous safety is interesting. Sounds like he's set on going somewhere that gives him the first look at receiver though. |

| Clairton doesn't lose. Ever. Yeah, they're only A, but they've had some very talented teams over the last half decade. |

They are 1A because of enrollment but make for some very tough football. I am not comparing WNC to WPA in football but you get the idea.
Everything out there is he will end up at Pitt. The only concern is if Chyrst leaves for a better job.

| No they do not play out of state programs. they do play up in class in PA and have never been challenged. Two years in a row Clairton went to the Red Bull 7on7 national tourney. They finished 2nd and 3rd nationally. Boyd was unstoppable . By the coaches own admission he is the best to come out of this storied school. No one could cover Boyd at the Rivals 5 star as he and Hackenburg won the tourney and MVP's. He is very smooth with great hands and body control. But I will repeat coming from him and his coaches Pitt is by far and away the leader. He has 2 other teamates headed there. There are several other Clairton guys on Pitt's team. When he gets in a college weight program he will unbelievable. Do not count on him attending at UT. By the way I have stood beside him several times and he is 6' 2 but really thin. He is very physical and a headhunter on defense. |

| The connection Boyd has at Pitt is not Chryst it is Bobby Engram the wide receiver coach. They have been out to most practices last week. Engram of Penn State fame. |
