If that's his kid, I need to see pictures of his wife. How would he end up in Opa-Locka?

So he started his HS career at IMG, but is back at CC already, still as a soph?

That's a weird route

Big kid (6'6 280) and based off the hudl I think the reason for the strange route is...he's raw

2028 - Nijal Thigpen, OT, 6’6, 280 – 3.5 GPA. Came to Carol City from Bradenton IMG Academy.

Can play Tackle or either guard. Nice nifty feet, a mauler type and good pass protection.

Not a lot of game film on this guy but certainly has the size for a 2029 kid..Worth watching develop.

Travon Martinez (2029) a 6'4"/295 O-line man that started as a freshman and can either tackle or guard.

Not a lot of game film but for a young 2029 OL moves rather well.
