A pair of linemen who play on both sides, Antonio Ford and Richard Ash, have multiple offers, too. Ford (6-3, 265) has West Virginia and Wake Forest, while Ash (6-3, 275) has the Mountaineers, FIU and Ole Miss. Both players bench over 300 pounds, and Ash was second-team all-area in 2008.

a lil light isnt he?

This is the other kid from Pahokee UT really needs to go after. You need linemen on both sides of the ball correct?

He's pretty much Ash's twin. It only took me seeing Pahokee play 3 times to figure who was who. Same bodies, tall and long, just starting to fill out, and will be a MONSTER once he's done maturing.

No clue where his best spot in college will be but he played C, T, DT. He measured in at the Scout.com Combine 6'3" 265. The key word is potential. He is going to get SOOOO much stronger and bigger. The crazy thing is Pahokee who is known for their speed has a 3rd D1 OL (not big time but certainly D1) in Willis Bowles 6'3" 270(?).

and a little slow. Walker is around that weight range but he is really quick.

Edit: I just realized he played tackle not end. In that case, yes he is small but he could probably add weight to his frame.

Was just offered by UT. CEG is recruiting him. Was told he would play OL, but could play DL if he decided to when he got to campus.

at this point we should probably send some sort of mass offer to pahokee high school

 

[RoSmitty12]

We are making large attempts to create pipelines to the big producing schools. Should pay off well. Have to love to see that.

Ford quote from an update earlier today---

My newest offers are from Purdue, Vanderbilt, Tennessee, and Louisville which was last week I think.
