Kid got his first offer from Toledo this week. Based on how good his film is I believe this could open the floodgates with other schools coming to offer.

I see some more doors opening after that first offer. Obviously talented.

Michael's line gives him some seams but this kid is doing a lot on his own, slipping arm tackles, muscling away from others, & he is getting hit 2 maybe 3 times before he wiggles for more yardage or breaks it. You gotta hope colleges are looking. I have seen him play the last 2 years. The thing I can say is Michael shows up. It will be the same in college. A lunch-pail blue-collar player.

I really like watching this kid play.

 

...just not from the opposing sideline.
