Led by mega-recruit Von Hill, speedsters Tehrenzo Turner and Eric Young and red-zone threat Jaden Millener, the Eagles receivers have averaged 208.8 yards per game in a District 1-5A championship season that has led up to Friday’s regional semifinal at home against Tallahassee Godby.

“We’ve got a lot of depth with our skill guys,” Pine Forest head coach Jason McDonald said. “If a team stops one of them, we go somewhere else. It’s hard to stop that many skill guys like the ones we’ve got.”

Hill, Millener and Young have accounted for a majority of the big plays, combining for 16 touchdowns. Quarterback LD Clardy has thrown for 19 touchdowns with 2,081 yards and seven interceptions.

“Everybody plays their part,” Young said, who leads the team with 624 yards. “Von and Jaden go deep … you put me and Tehrenzo in space, anything can happen

This is going to make the "stop recruiting Canada folks happy".
 
If Princeton can play a Game in Shanghai, China ... why can't UCONN have an international Game in a big Eastern Canada city

What's going on ... Football is a much bigger sport - and the Canadian athletic foundation of Preps, Clubs, PeeWee is far more advanced than 2006 when I moved there. Friends who coached then & maintain broad contacts through the two most active provinces for us - Ontario & Quebec - say that the participation has increased dramatically. NFL is big on Sundays for young Canadian males; it is the only sport that interrupts HockeyTalk on SportsRadio 24/7.

It is absolutely good strategy. We will get big linemen; we will get fast skill players (Canadian immigration from lots of global markets is robust as well); we will get kids that can throw - in inclement weather; and the skill leval and coaching is getting far better.

we need him on our D... great timing on his hits... would make opposing offensive WRs think twice about catching the football over the middle of the field....

Us needing him and our coaches being able convince him to come here don't seem intersect.
 
My question is the offers he had, were they still available from Missouri and Indiana?

Schools fill spots and players lose out. Of course if he signs late instead of in December he could find a spot at a bigger school.

UConn was his third offer in May (6 days after Missouri). Indiana was his first offer.

MTSU offered @ the end of July (before ?Washington State @ end of October but they’re not mentioned anywhere in his announcement article/list above).

if the kid can run fast & likes to hit ...

Connecticut kids (and New England) might have scholarship options beyond full Athletic. State U can be creative.

we better keep him in the loop.. we let a few slide by.. Let's not let this happen again... And at 6'2 220lb (already) playing LB (but was all state at RB) I would think he can run plenty enough for this level...

I'm gonna try and get out to his game this week. He can definitely run and he is a grade A student. I know he has visited Holy Cross and i believe Dartmouth. He plays in Class S for a school that has only been in existence for a decade or so. He is a bit of a manchild on the field.

I wonder if he is one of the spotlight's who hasn't come out yet as a commitment? He has the look and though the competition is not great, you can see the talent on both sides of the ball.
