Damn, that tape is REALLY impressive.

He tackles like a 5 star LB, has absolutely blazing wheels, and damn good hands to boot.

Is Eunice 3A? if that tape was LA 5A, he should be a top 5 player in the country.

Regardless, I think he should be top 100 and probably top 50. I sure as hell hope he gets his grades straight.

well... the coaches felt good enough about the situation to extend an offer and he committed so I'm going to say NO

Impressive film. Kid looked incredible in the secondary, possibly 5 star as a defensive back. Tall and blazing fast. Closes fast, great hands, makes a good break on the ball, great leaping ability. Needs to add some weight and strength, which shouldnt be a problem. His form tackling needs a little work too. But incredibly athletic for sure.

As a WR, he played well but not incredible. Probably 3 to low 4 star. He is just so fast, he can outrun everyone.

He will definately be at least a 4 star athlete.

I came away very impressed. I wonder if the new rivals film is any different than hat was posted on scout awhile back. I remember thinking Simon was a solid prospect, but wasn't as blown away as I am by the Rivals footage.

I would say safety, but he has great film at WR and we are stacked at safety for the next couple years.

If he can add some weight, potentially a LB? (Would need to add alot of weight).

Yeah he should be listed as an ATH all the way. Very versatile guy.

I'd be interested in seeing some more of him in coverage on D. The poor camera work didn't allow you to see his backpedal or his hips to adjust and turn to the ball, but if INTs is any kind of indicator, then he should be just fine as he is close to holding the all-time record at Eunice I believe.

From what Ive come to understand, he's taking appropriate measures to get everything straightened up. The poster WMORRIS knows a little more about everything, being he has the Eunice connections. Tell us what you got on the kid Wmorris.

Thats good. Im glad he is doing that now while he still has time and not waiting until next year to decide to do something about it.

I don't think I had watched it all then. It seems to be cut up in a slightly different order, but is the same film.

Nonetheless, the kid looks like a solid pickup. Finding him a position on the field is the next step.

I do think scout has him ranked about where he belongs--maybe a little higher by the end of the year.
