Haven't seen much about him except that he's white and we already have a white LB in this class. Do we want this guy?

He's pretty athletic for a White LB. It wouldn't surprise me if they give him an offer this weekend. He looks to be a beast in the run game, but doesn't have the knowledge of the passing game in a zone-defense that Sirmon seems to already possess. Tuliaupupu and Fitz-Henley are our only only MLB offers outside of Sirmon. Both are probably long-shots, so it would make sense to consider Wilson as a strong possibility.

This kid loves Stanford. Said they are his "dream school." Comes from the same school as Weddington. I say we tell him to "fuck off" and just get it over with. WDWHA.

he is fine, i wish BBK was that big.

Hips too narrow.




Otten on his right looks 25#s heavier, so probably no DE conversion if Wilson turns out to be slow.

Never knew Jerry Cantrell played football.

I mean, he doesn't have elite size or anything, but his hips are less narrow than Beavers.

I remember there being some comments from Woodinville players somewhere in here about Wilson

“It sucks,” Falcon offensive guard Derek Beers said. “It’s not the outcome we expected. I hate to say it, but I think we’re a better team than what we did out there tonight. We played our hearts out. But they had really great players out there. They pursued really well, better than we thought. I didn’t expect [middle linebacker] Ben Olson to be that good. He’s a beast.”

Wasn't Ben Olson a shitty Bruin QB?

For some reason, I got a feeling that he might turn out to be next Psalm Wooching. I hope I am wrong.

If you scrutinize the pic, it's quite obvious he doesn't wear a cup either. He's a tucker.

You mean Kyler Gordon, or is there a similarly named Gordon I'm not aware of yet in this class?

I still don't know what to think about Ben Wilson, I love Kyler Gordon, not a fan of Tre Weed.

Potential as backup to Sirmon?

Yeah I don't think the coaches like Weed too much either. In an interview with him he hardly really mentioned UW showing much interest. Apparently Aashari Croswell likes us a lot, not such exactly how much though.

Of course he likes USC, all Hawkins players do.

When I saw Weed in the playoff game vs. Woodinville, I thought he looked like an above average high school back, but nothing about him seemed like D-1 material.

From his interview he's mostly getting looks at DB.

I don't think he has a chance to crack our DB rotation. We are fucking loaded with monsters there.
