(horrible SDS editing as always; is he an 8th grader or a sophomore?)

What are his parents feeding him?! Dang!

. It’s rare that eighth grade prospects get offered full scholarships, but Goodwin is a little different.

He likely doesn't have that kind of offer. Very likely.

Exactly. There's no telling how much he'll grow in height (though his doctors say over 7') or how much weight he'll be carrying by the time he's a Junior. It's a conditional offer, no doubt, with emphasis on "here's an offer to attend our camps while we evaluate you..."

Good God, that's a mountain.

Good God, that's a mountain of baby fat.

A cpl semesters of Scott Cochran will knock that right off. My question would be if he ends up nearly 7 foot and around the 350 range (assuming they have a decent conditioning program there), where does he fit in? As a high school freshman, I doubt he's even settled in at a position (dont you know his JV coaches wanted to just run him at tailback every play? lol). He has left tackle listed on his Twitter but could he possibly have the quick feet for that? I mean at that size, if he does have the athleticism for it, he would be dominate there.
