I?ve watched him for two years. He tore is ACL in the playoffs his junior year. He lost a step this past year IMO. The ball comes out of his hand weird. I think he could throw better with some work. Good size and a great kid. Perfect for PWO

He's a great athlete. I've never really thought he could or would play QB in the SEC unless he was a walk-on scout team guy but he could be a steal for us in that he is athletic enough that he could be moved to LB or TE or something like that potentially.
I believe he had some offers from Harvard and another place like that so he is very smart and it may be that we have him "walking on" as an academic guy. Not really sure what the plan is for him but for a walk-on he is a really good pick up.

Aidan Glover from Collierville HS. Check the dude out.

Plan is to slide him to a H back.
-
Picked up UK DB Ja’Kobi Albert
Played as true freshman at UK last year
Very Solid get
-
Maybe H back. No way on LB

Was a walk-on there too

I don?t know for sure, but Vic may have academic money. He was Who?s Who at Madison Central. Just an all around good kid.

Committments do not require a scholarship
Lots of athletes that commit somewhere to schools where they receive no assistance. Happens a lot with the smaller sports, like tennis, swimming, etc.

Well I'm glad he's coming here. Hope he ends up with a scholarship at some point

That's a little surprising to me. I feel like people usually make a full recovery from an ACL injury these days. Was it a particularly bad injury? Or did he fill out his frame so he's carrying more weight?

I don?t know. Maybe he bulked up. All I know is that it was a noticeable difference even to a novice like me.

He was committed to Miami to walk on

Preferred walk-in does get him at the top of the list to earn one of next years schollies.

Chris Relf "Ralf" turned out to be one of my all time favorite players. You never know......
Ralf couldn't hit the broadside of a barn with a football if you paid him.

Best quote I ever heard about Relf was, "He could throw it through a brick wall...sadly, he missed the wall about 50% of the time."

So they do but a lot of times not in the first year.
It?s usually the second year the return to form. That first year their body is back to 100% but mentally some struggle to trust their leg again.

Yep, I had two major knee surgeries “way back when”. I gained my speed back less than a year, but my knee was never tha same. Doctor was telling me I would better than ever, he lied; LOL. But surgeries now days are a piece of cake compared to mine in the day. Wore a cast for six weeks, imagine that.
