Hope he plays like Courtney. One of the most underrated of the Saban era.

Holy Smokes... This kid is amazing.

It will be interesting to see how his body develops. At this size he's an edge guy with the physicality to play early. If he puts on weight I suppose he could grow into more of a DE. But it's really, really rare you see a guy with the size & athleticism combo to actually be good at both. His burst... For that size... Wow.

RTR!

@Tidestalker I figure at that weight.....figure he would be a good Jack for Saban's system.

Yep, it seems like that is most likely.

But when you see his frame and particularly his lower body, I could see him throwing on a lot of weight and jumping over that 265 range if the staff really wanted to.

If the Upshaw/family connection is true, that's actually a nice comparison to his game. Upshaw wasn't as tall but super strong and heavy for the position. IMHO this kid just looks different than even most elite recruits we see... Powerful, expulsive.... Just unique!
