I just saw an earlier thread about the players at U-High. One of the players mentioned at the beginning of the post is my son, Garrett Brumfield. He and a few of his teammates are excellent football players. We are looking for them to build on the success they had this past season. I'm adding a link to his highlights, if anyone is interested in watching. Garrett Brumfield's Highlights. The team's season highlights are on youtube as well.

Good looking young player. Looks aggressive. 280lbs bench isn't bad at all for a kid that size at that age.
Does he play basketball?
Two words of advice- work on his flexibility (it will help him play low/with leverage which any lineman can always improve), and tell him not to go to Bama's junior day.

wildman-I always meant to ask your son if his Dad happened to go to Lee High School back in the day. He certainly looks a lot like a classmate of mine did when we were in school. And I echo-fine young man-my son that played alongside him speaks highly of him. All the best for his path to playing at the next level.

Could someone link the team highlights? I can find them

Very impressive highlights for a sophomore. I think moving forward he should work on his upper body strength, and I don't mean for bench press stats, but for his punch. His pass set punch is a little soft, but that is really being picky especially for how young he is. If he can get a more violent punch and like another poster said, improve some flexibility, your kid will play big time D-1. Again very impressive for a sophomore.

Your son is a human highlight reel. He not only plays tough, he actually looks like he knows his assignment on each play. Sure hope that he is a Tiger fan. Would love to see him in the purple and gold in the future. Tell him to keep up his grades. But honestly, I can tell that you are the type of dad who has that covered already. Thanks for posting.

Re-posting because I meant to send this to you!!
For a Soph in High School at any size or in any position to bench 280 lbs is actually very, very, very impressive. When he gets into a college weight room, he will explode in power/hang cleans, squat, bench, etc. Before you know it, he'll be doing 350, 550 and 400 in these lifts. ANd there is so much more than lifting. Enjoy high school ball, always work on footwork, get him to camps at different sized schools and the NUC, Scout, ESPN/Nike variety. But in the back of your mind, picture what he will be like in about 4 years, with a redshirt year and freshman year under his belt...and still 3 years of eligibility left. Also, I suggest have a professional video company specializing in football, make a video of just junior highlights and send to recruiters...he will look so much better each year and after junior year is when recruiting kicks in...that spring, summer and the senior fall. Then you can always add some senior highlights too. Tell him "hard every play," because you will probably get asked for an "entire game" video too...there will be some bad plays, but scouts expect that...they want to see how you respond afterward. I like a dad who promotes his son...you freakin raised him and you know him better than anyone. Use the camp traveling as fun time, good bonding time, too!
