Good size for either WR or DB.

If David Scott is the first on breaking recruiting news, makes you wonder why you pay for certain sites.

So this kid went prep, does anyone know if he is still committed?

Looks like he is going to Newberry College, D2.

Must not be able to qualify.

247 has this kid committed to us for next year…again.

Where are you seeing that?

But it still lists his commit date as 2013. Interesting.

Can anyone confirm? 247 Sports now has him #1 in the state of SC and #38 nationwide for the 2016 class.

His composite score shouldn’t really be that high since he is a 2 star on rivals and not rated on ESPN.

I thought the same thing then I watched his highlights from last year.

After doing some digging, there is something really odd about this recruit, as well as the school he is at, Palmetto Prep. Something about it just doesn’t feel right. The school has changed its name a couple times in recent years, and I can’t find any evidence that they do anything but play football there. No classes, not other sports, and very little information about it. Almost has a College of Faith feel to it.

Also, this recruit originally committed to us in 2013, then committed to Newberry in 2014, but went to Gray Military College (which has changed its name to Palmetto Prep) in 2014, and now it is showing he is committed to us again for 2016.

after a little research, it seems to me that Palmetto Prep is a football ‘proving ground’ for kids who haven’t qualified in any form for anything. not sure how high school credits would even transfer or be eligible for consideration. must be some catch though.

can anybody get an “Academic” link?

That’s the JUCO rankings… He’s ranked as the 38th best JUCO player nationwide

Found this from July 3rd:
