Trying to figure that out myself. Seems like we're still trying to get in on him??
He was on his OV to Arky for the LSU game, they spotlighted him on the sideline and he looked physically imposing.

Not imposing enough, apparently.

Another TE has emerged in LA and the staff has become very interested. If they really want another TE on signing day, he could possibly get an offer:
Cethan Carter

Scout has him at FB. Do you think this would be a replacement for Swanson, not a TE?
(At 6'2, I'd say too short for TE anyway.)

Either Sonny or Shea said he had a growth spurt this year and he is now around 6'4". Look at his HUDL highlights and you can see he is one of the taller guys on the field. He looks very well built.

He's currently dreaming of becoming the next Lance Kendricks.

According to my AR connections, they don't think he'll be used much. They think that Henry kid, or Gragg, or his Brother...are the future at TE. Oh well, its competition everywhere he goes, good luck to him.

Bielema will use multiple TEs. He's built a lot like Kendricks was coming out of HS, just a little shorter.
I could see him switching to somewhere like an Ole Miss or somewhere similar with an offense that isn't so power oriented so he won't be asked to in-line block all that much.

Miles visted Patterson last week, same day Arkie gave Miles an offer which is pretty  considering Skinner has a verbal to Arkie.
