'17 CA DT/OL Jalen McKenzie

[TriedAndTrueVOL]

Its actually his aunts nephew

Oh yeah you're right...my mistake.

 

[PassedOutAwake]

I think Barton Simmons made him a 247 profile just so he could predict him to UT and rack up a bunch of Crystal Ball points. Please add to OP

Never to early I don't guess? I really like how it says 100% UT, then right below it at interests it shows 'cool'.

Yeah I'm going to go out on a rather short limb and say this guy is taller than 6-4 and heavier than 285. He is a good inch or two taller than KM and probably 310ish.

Like I said early in this thread, he looks tailor made for OT and if his hands are half as active as KM's then watch out.

I think the interest level must be some kind of formula tied to visits or something.

I am not sure about the brother thing! Heath was good but Benji was only serviceable! Aaron was good but Zack was??? Reggie was good but Raleigh was not as good.

Just because one is exceptional doesn't mean the younger will be also.

I believe Raleigh had the longer and more distinguished NFL career.

That's Stokes' brother as a 7th grader playing pee wee football.

He reminds me of too tall Jones. Very good DE for the cowgirls.

i wouldnt say that. I hope he goes to UT but wont count him as a lock just yet. Dude was wearing miami stuff and posting on twitter. In the end ill say hes a vol but right now hes still enjoying the experience. JMO.

Link?

Are you sure it was the game and not the combine they have for juniors?

 

[westside]

It was the combine.

My bad. The envelope in the photo had the logos for both. I guess the combine is not just for juniors though

He'll no doubt make it come down to two schools just like his brother, but it's not really going to be as tough of a decision for him as it'll be made out to be. He wants to play with his brother again, especially since he missed out playing with him this year

One pic with a Miami jacket on...


Kid is a Vol Lock, bet on that.

It's probably been posted already, but did Jalen also have to sit out this year?

 

[TriedAndTrueVOL]

I never heard for sure either way. I did find the following article on Kahlil from August that stated the eligibility of Clayton Valley's other transfers couldn't be confirmed:

Kahlil McKenzie ineligible to play football for Clayton Valley Charter this season - San Jose Mercury News

Clayton Valley's varsity football team has five other transfers, including McKenzie's sophomore brother Jalen. Their eligibility could not be confirmed.

 

[Dust10]

I would assume so. I'll be curious to follow Jalen and see what position he develops into. OT sounds nice right about now.

 

[TriedAndTrueVOL]

Found this pic of Jalen in uniform on MaxPreps...solid looking sophomore.

Hope hes an OT along with Stokes

No he played... Think he sat out 5 or so games for his transfer penalty

I am still 100% on what side of the ball I think he should be on. This guy just looks like a OT.

The thought of the younger Mckenzie and Stokes being our bookends of the OL gets me all hot and bothered.

Yep...I don't know how many games he had to sit out, but I did find where he was playing in November.

Agreed...I read somewhere he's 6'6" and 305 now. He just looks like an OT to me...

 

[MockingVol]

Agreed...I read somewhere he's 6'5" and 295-300 now.

He looks taller than that already. I'd put him around 6'5.5" and he has a very nice wingspan. Would not be surprised at all to see this kid at around 6'6" 315 going into his senior season.
