Intelligent and athletic genetics

Simmer down Jimmy the Greek.

Just cause he's, waaait a minute.

Intelligent and athletic genetics

I think Cooper is going to be one to keep an eye on. I suspect the older brothers wrestled to improve their flexibility and footwork. But Cooper appears to be serious about wrestling and might be a better athlete. Could develop into a must-have linebacker with that background and athleticism.

Maybe we can get his two older twin brothers to grad transfer in a couple seasons. Both sophomore OL's at Harvard. Both wrestled at McCallie.

Carson Gentle also wrestled and got 4th in the 2021 state tournament at 220lbs.

And they have a younger brother, Cooper, who is an AAU state champion wrestler and linebacker for the 2026 class.

I’m down to take all the wrestlers. A1 work ethic

For all the posters who see a potential tight end in every recruit, Carson Gentle had one reception Friday night for 54 yards. I read he also caught a pass for 16 yards in the Jamboree.

But I haven't seen any of their games this year, so I don't know if he caught these lined up as a tight end, off of a tackle-eligible alignment, or out of a fake field goal play.

If he starts returning punts in practice, we'll start hearing Reggie White comparisons!

 

[T2P_Priceless]

Dang, he’s in on almost every play

Definitely see his future at 5 and even 3 tech in passing situations. Understands leverage and loves to engage offensive lineman. Just like his coach said never takes plays off. In CHRIST Alone

The 54 yarder was lined up as a TE (or maybe considered slot reciever since he was off the end of the line) and down the middle seam route.

I will be at the McCallie game on Friday vs MBA. I got sideline passes, so it should be a fun time.

Of his highlight tape? Yeah I would hope so.

 

[LittleVol]

Of his highlight type? Yeah I would hope so.

I think TN high school is undefeated against GA high school this year

Kid is going to be a good player.

Can’t click on this thread without singing a little Glen Campbell

I was at the Woodward-McCallie game last Friday night. Woodward has more highly rated recruits than McCallie but McCallie won. It was a close game and played at a high level by both teams. Gentle was a standout both offensively and defensively in the game IMO.

Someone I know is going to go cover that game I think. I haven't checked to see if he's in yet. I'm probably going to the CCS game to watch Boo Carter

Lol that’s hilarious the Garner isn’t nice to the recruits we have on campus trying to impress

I was fortunate to be on the sideline and got to see the team up close. Carson had a good game in McCallie’s loss to MBA. I think he had 3 solo tackles, but he had a lot of hurries and general pressure. He did not appear to be out of position on any defensive snaps. He was really active on defense. As TE, I think he had only one catch, but few total snaps.

McCallie has an OG listed at 6’1” and 399! Not a typo….399!

Anyone in Knoxville can come see Carson and McCallie lay the wood to Catholic this Friday. You may even see yours truly on the field somewhere.

That approach selects for the kind of attitudes you want in your players.
