on the side of the video from a scout, he projects as a S/LB type in college. Any ideas on if he's going to be highly rated and if him and Mathis in 2010 will join their teammates from 2008 and 2009 at Michigan?

Is he a senior? Not convinced he's anything worthwhile based on that highlight reel. He looks real fast on the KO team, but not so sure about quickness, lateral movement, etc. And where are these 40 and vertical jump measurements from?

Yeah, he looks like a SS/OLB to me. He's a class of 2010 kid and he lists Michigan as a school of interest, but he doesn't have an offer yet. I've heard a little buzz about this kid, but not much. All I basically heard is that he's been in the shadow of these other Cass Tech kids but people expect him to break out next year. Glen Mason's Hot Wife: I agree that the 40 time and vertical leap are probably inflated, but that kid definitely looks like a decent FBS prospect. Nobody that size with that speed (even if it is 4.5 instead of 4.4 or whatever) goes unnoticed by big schools.

I see some serious POTEN! Still though if M hasnt offered him, maybe the recruiters know something that we don't. Stay tuned I guess.

Im sure his measurables are inflated a little, but he definitely seems fast on tape, and he is quite tall. Not sure what his stats were like, and up until now, I've never heard of him (so I'd assume he isn't going to be highly rated, atleast not to begin with). However, with his size and speed, he has some tremendous upside. He can be a phenomenal OLB that can rush the passer and play well in coverage. I'm going to assume Michigan will offer him, especially with more teams adopting the spread, you can't have too many OLBs with the speed to cover slots, and size to cover TEs like this kid has.
