--Sammamish (Wash.) Eastside Catholic five-star defensive lineman J.T. Tuimoloau was the best player on the field on Friday, in either game, and there is a reason he is the No. 1 prospect in the country by 247Sports in the 2021 class. Tuimoloau was a problem all night for Pinnacle and he unquestionably got the better of offensive lineman Tosh Baker in their much anticipated matchup. Tuimoloau had three tackles for loss, a sack, five pass breakups and six hurries on the night and was constantly bringing pressure to J.D. Johnson. In fact, there was some double and triple teaming going on with Tuimoloau just to give Johnson time to throw. And to seal the game, Tuimoloau crushed a Pinnacle ball-carrier on the final play when the Pioneers tried a miraculous last play, with Tuimoloau jarring the ball loose. Between this game and his five-sack performance against Peoria (Ariz.) Centennial a year ago, Tuimoloau has been a thorn in the side of Arizona prep teams. Tuimoloau, who also shined on the hardcourt all offseason with Seattle Rotary AAU, has been terrific in the early going for the Crusaders and continues to cement himself as the top prospect in the class.
I love me some smalls, but I can’t wait for JTT be dawg. He have much bigger impact on UW than smalls will
Fuck off with the shit about young players not seeing the field. The good ones do especially on defense.
Seriously. Our defensive lineup is literally one of the youngest in the country I'd imagine. Latu and McDuffie are true freshman and are possibly already starters or working their way to it.

You tell me
Earl ThomasVince Young's HS tape, in that he looks like a different species than everyone else he's playing against.Offensively it's a different story unfortunately
Garrett still has the quickest 1st step I’ve ever seen for a guy that size. Unblockable in HS
