He looks athletic enough to make the move to LB. I'm not saying he can't play LEO in this defense, I just know these coaches value length at the position.

Watching his HUDL he is a freaking stud. Reminds me of the guys Saban and Smart get that can absolutely wreck shop. It would be really nice if we can get him.

Didn't realize he was a 5 star wow. Interesting measurables for an edge so I'll have to watch him soon

I watched his video 2 days ago. They have him ranked above Franklin who's also a 5 star in Mississippi, so i checked him out.

He's a bull...
Strong and very mobile lower body.
Changes direction so well and has a great center of gravity.
Hard to block, and uses angles so well.

GETT'IM...

If we can start signing guys like this every class then we are going to get to the next level sooner than later. CRG needs to have a sit down with this young man.

Sometimes wingspan can be just as if not more important than height. Plus he could still grow an inch or two. Byron Young was only 6’3 and I think Corey Vereen was only 6’2 also. Of course we were running a different gap scheme with him and Barnett

I agree with the wingspan comment, but Joshua Josephs is the shortest edge they've heavily recruited at 6'3", but he has freakish length for that height. This kid appears to be built slightly more compact, and the coaches definitely appear to have a particular body type they prefer at the edge position. They are in on several guys that fit the mold of what they've recruited the last 2 cycles.

Are you suggesting that Josephs isnt working out because of his body length?

Hopefully will be another Parys Haralson (RIP) type.

Joshua Josephs was around the same size

He's the same size as Josephs now actually.
I agree, he's not to small to play LEO.

He's natural on the edge, unlike Harrison whos identical size, but has taken time to adjust playing outside.

what's their bend and arm length compared to each other like?? JJ has super long arms

Good question. This from JJ’s 247 bio:

A twitched-up front-seven defender that has a chance to be a difference-maker on Saturdays. Looks the part with a 6-foot-3, 215-pound frame and a verified 82-inch wingspan.

It’s also a fact that we’re recruiting a VASTLY different level of Edge prospect in the 2024 class vs the 2022 class. So while we were ecstatic (and rightfully so) to land JJ, he doesn’t look like any of the big time Edge guys in this class for whom we’re deeply involved.

This from Callahan on Saturday.
He has already announced that he's planning to take official visits to Auburn, Penn State, Florida and Georgia next month, starting with a trip to Auburn the weekend of June 2. Steve Wiltfong, 247Sports' director of recruiting, reported Saturday that Texas A&M "rounds out the current top five" for Waller, who has also indicated that he intends to participate in a camp at Alabama next month.

Wiltfong wrote that Penn State is"the leader heading into the summer" in Waller's recruitment. The Nittany Lions are set to host him on official visit the weekend of June 9.

Would love to see him visit again.
