6’0 175lbs 5-star CB out of CT, goes to IMG Academy
Is originally from New Haven CT, but transferred to Iona Prep in New Rochelle NY for his Soph year & is now at IMG for his Junior year.
Had a phenomenal Sophomore season with 45tcks 8INT’s & 1TFL, plus 17rec for 170yds receiving & 177yds in Kickoff returns.
Is a physical Corner with A+ Ballhawking ability & great hands. Plays mostly in off coverage Bail technique, but in the instances when he had to play press man he did very good job with playing under control with his footwork & utilizing one-hand jam to him his man in front of him. @1:45 & 3:05 he shows good eye discipline coming out of his stance giving inside release with outside leverage, he plays overtop of the route to the WR’s outside shoulder & capitalizes off the bad throw & makes the INT. His footwork is very good in Press Man technique, he has short choppy shuffling that allows for him to read his man while anticipating breaks & route recognition. He also stays in phase & displays good body control highpointing the ball to make acrobatic INTs.
He has good 4.5 speed, but more importantly displays good recovery ability on downfield routes. He’s quicker than purely fast, but makes up for it with good physicality at the point of attack.
Has upside to also play Free Safety at the next level.
He first visited Miami back in April, but recently returned accompanied with his IMG teammates 5-star CB Desmond Ricks (from VA), 4-star S Jaydan Hardy (from Lewisville TX) & 4-star WR Brandon Winton Jr (from Knoxville TN).
After recently visiting with us Miami made his first top 10 list, UGA is seen as the early favorites right now, but many schools have jumped in his recruitment & will be a marathon run to the finish line.
