What High School did he play at? Unless he took a huge jump in the last 12 months, he must have been totally dominating at the high school level.

Is he a true freshman or RS?

Freak holds/should hold the national high school record for most sacks in a career. I say "should hold" b/c there is some controversy concerning the record.

Apparently, the national stats people didn't think that OP Walker kept adequate statistics, but his HS coach claimed to have gone back and watched every snap in his career and confirmed the record.

Also cool, is that he doesn't just have some random nickname that his friends gave him. Legendary Monte Kiffin gave him that nickname!
