Trevin Wallace is one of the most explosive athletes in pads I’ve ever watched on tape. Top 5 LB and top 40 overall prospect for 247Sports coming out of HS.

Huge rushing & def. production, also returned kicks.

11.08 100, 6-2 high jump, 22-3 long jump

First two guys off the board from Michigan, Ruke Orhorhoro and Darius Robinson:

1) Didn’t play football til junior year

2) Both first offered by Toledo

Good read, not just 28 two-sport athletes but seven three-sport athletes in round 1 as well

T'Vondre Sweat finished the 2019 cycle with the highest 3-star grade (89) on 247Sports. He was verified in spring of his junior year at 6-3, 249, so you can gather just how much physical development/mass he added during his time at Texas.

Ja'Lynn Polk spent several months w/a 4-star 91 rating on 247Sports. Definitely should have kept it to end of cycle (finished w/highest 3-star grade 89 ... out of my hands at the time).

WRs Dez Bryant, Keke Coutee, now Ja'Lynn Polk = Lufkin, Texas

Keon Coleman: monster jr. season at Opelousas (La.) Catholic w/22 TDs on 35 receptions, 7 INTs on D. Dynamic, explosive, skilled hooper. T&F incl 48-8 triple, 21-1 long. Sr. season left some concerns, but still finished 247Sports 4-star w/immense upside.

Among West Coast schools, Gorman was tied with LB Poly and Gardena, Serra for most players drafted over the last decade at 7 but now sits at the top

Saw Guyton live in Dec. 2019 a couple weeks before he signed with TCU, which IIRC was his lone offer. Exclusively a DT at Manor (Texas) High, so a difficult eval at OT. Traits were there, though.

Wrote this at the time:

Didn't play HS football until his junior year:

No. 69 overall, top 10 wideout in 247Sports 2021 Top247, highest in the industry.

We say it again and again, but bet on basketball, especially when it comes to pass catchers.
