Another dreary day here in Texas. Cold isn't too bad but more rain.
The good thing is over here at the West practice the field is turf so that will help.

Going through position drills.
Virginia commit Taquan Mizzell working with the WRs. One of the top pass catching RBs in the country.
Tony Stevens is the best looking WR on the hoof. Will announce Saturday between A&M, FSU and Ohio St. I like A&M.
James Quick is so smooth. Will announce Saturday between Louisville and Ohio State.

It doesn't get more physically impressive than five-star OT Laremy Tunsil and Stanford LB commit Peter Kalambayi.

And of course five-star Alabama commit Derrick Henry who cuts quick and gets to his top-end speed in a hurry.

Steven Mitchell is the only West WR under 6-0. Could provide matchup problems at the game

Special group of DBs for the East.
USC commit Jalen Ramsey looks the most fluid.
Ohio State CB commit Eli Apple is gifted physically.
Virginia Tech commit Kendall Fuller has a great lower body, can flip his hips, long arms.
Michigan safety commit Dymonte Thomas is explosive out here.
Mackensie Alexander also has a good looking base. Similar player to Fuller, just not as big. Clemson and A&M top two.

Ohio State OL commit Evan Lisle and Notre Dame OL commiy John Montelus working at right tackle and guard respectively. Lisle has big-time physical upside. Good frame, arms down to his knees.
Montelus is humongous. College ready physically.

For a kid that hasn't played WR much at all since his sophomore season, John Diarse looks as smooth as the other WRs on the West.
Catches the ball clean, runs good routes, and adjusts to the ball well when it is in the air.

This is the guy I think gets exposed. I know he was injured most of the year, but really I don't think he is good as his ranking suggests. I think Rettig and Max Browne will be the best 2 quarterbacks on the West roster.

We'll talk to him after practice. 6-2, 200, looks like a strong possession WR. Has some wiggle catching screens here.
