The nationally rated recruit starred at a number of NUC events and was amongst the top overall players from the 2010 season. The 6’0 207 lb standout won LB MVP at the Tulsa, Dallas and Southwest U100 combines en route to being the fourth rated player at his position following the illustrious Top Prospect Camp. In addition, the senior sensation is currently fielding 14 D1 offers from top notch programs such as Missouri, Vanderbilt, Arkansas and Arizona State amongst others.
