'21 NC DT Payton Page (Clemson commit)

8/22/19: Page played well enough that he caught the eyes of college coaches during a freshman season in which he had 40 tackles. His size and the footwork he had developed playing basketball as a youngster made him an elite prospect. When the scholarship offers started coming in, Dudley’s coaches “didn’t even tell me because they didn’t want my head to get big,” Page says. “I got three in a day. Like a week after, my dad (Eric) told me I had UNC, and the others were Tennessee and Texas A&M. I about lost my mind.” Tennessee was the big one in that group, he says.

...As a sophomore last year, Page was part of every opponent’s game plan, but he was ready. “They would try to double-team me and it just wouldn’t work,” Page says of a season in which he had 80 tackles, including 26 for losses, with 10 sacks and 21 hurries. Former Dudley assistant coach Marvin Lamberth, who now works with High Point Central’s defensive line, “made me do this double-team move and it worked every time,” Page says. “They did not stop me.”

Also there is a 6’6, 325 rising junior named Travis Shaw at Grimsley High in Greensboro who’s a beast as well. Remember that name Vols will be after him.

This was one of the few recruit interviews I enjoyed. The kid wasn’t too cool to be there, he had some enthusiasm. I like this guy. If we could get him and the brooks kid from Alabama that d-line is just getting nastier and nastier

Grimsley and Page have long history of producing top prospects

Lately they have been.
Had two 4 star WRs last year.

I've lived in Florida, Texas, Tennessee, and a variety of other places- Including North Carolina. I live in California now.

Some of the most athletic people ever met are from that state. I went to a little gym in Charlotte years ago, and I remember this group of 5'10 young dudes dunking two handed like it was nothing. All of them.

Toney Baker
Andre Brown
Montario Hardesty

On and on and on the lost guys with freak athletic ability from that state. There could easily be a super high school made up of just North Carolina kids that would easily challenge these others around the country that already exist
