This guy is an intriguing prospect. He's 6'7 217 and runs by guys on his film. He could stick as an outside wr.

Good he is here in the spring. I suspect he RSs this year and two springs before your freshman year can be huge. I know some services consider him a TE. I think he considers himself a WR.

He needs to meet up with that new strength coach ASAP...

if they could put about 15 lbs on him and really get on his development...he could be a contributor next season...

him and Bone going about 6'7 and 6'6...that's something a lot of schools do not have...mismatch city all day long...could be a deadly redzone passing attack...

hell put 25-30 lbs on him and he could be a Gronk or Graham...

He'll redshirt this year. Could be a very interesting prospect in the future.

Nothing personal, but why be "easy now"? I mean, why do we have to sneak around as though were walking on fire.... If we're ever going to change the mindset of the fan base we have to be a little bold... There isn't a reason in the world that a kid that runs a 100 yard dash in 10.8 seconds, and happens to be 6' 7", shouldn't be a terror for other teams... We are beginning to get players, one by one, that will change this type of thinking over the next few years... Imagine if we can recruit like we are now, what about when we begin winning games... Imagine what we can do then.....

Wouldn't be surprised to see him grow into a TE just as I wouldn't be surprised to see TE commit Justin Rigg move to OT.

Speed and height are killers, but how are his hands? Once knew a guy who played P5 and was a beast, big, quick, super strong, but the only way he was catching the ball was if you could get it stuck in his face mask. I'm not saying Holtzclaw has that problem, just that if he does, nothing else matters

If he is going to be a TE, like someone else said he is going to need about 15-20 lbs of muscle.

How are his hands? That is a question to ask of every reciecer. Time always tells. Better than Joker's approach of simply recruiting athletes to be receivers, this staff is recruiting WRs that played WR in HS.

Of course, this kid also looks like he would make a solid DE, with some added weight.

It's a highlight video but he makes some very tough catches in traffic.

Would love to see what he could do with a QB that could throw it to him in stride. With that height and speed I think he could be a great asset.
