He is listed at 6'8 400 lbs. If by chance DeSoto moves to 5A here is one of their OL prospects that swallow's people opposite of him. They have at least a couple of others that were 300 plus that will all be returning in 2024. Not to mention what they have coming in the lower ranks. Everybody have fun with all this.

If you're big enough he wouldn't have to do that. But probably not. But if Aledo were to play DeSoto everybody knows the scheme by the DL would be to out quick the big men to get around them and hopefully cause havoc in the backfield. A team like Aledo could execute that but would probably have to cheat quite a bit with the LB's to help that cause. But if DeSoto gets past that then its el churcho. They can grind that running game out quite well too. How could you not with that kind of beef leaning on you. In fact, I'm sure it could be quite possible that Aledo is already working on the prospect of this. If anybody doesn't think so well, they're kidding their self. Football in Aledo doesn't ever end with just a state championship. If anybody doesn't think so well, they're kidding their self. :-)

6'8" 400 and only a 3 star. That tells you everything you need to know about his actual skill or lack thereof.

Even so. Not to worry all he gotta do is get in your way. The DeSoto athletes with their speed will do the rest as you have seen.

And still yet, he would be an upgrade to most any average or below average OL. I donβt think anybody would turn him away if he showed up their door step. DeSoto seems to do just fine with him though.

6'8" 400 and only a 3 star. That tells you everything you need to know about his actual skill or lack thereof. He is still a youngster and hasn't grown into his body yet. He is carrying quite a bit of 'not so good weight' still that he needs to drop in order to get the foot speed and agility required to be a dominant OT in big time college football. If you had seen the man in the link below as a Jr you would not have believed the transformation in 1 year he made to his senior year. He was about 50 lbs overweight and dropped that in off season and came in his senior year and didn't even look like the same kid. He now earns about $330,000/week for the next 5 seasons, or $86m total! www.cbsnews.com/texas/news/cowboys-offensive-tackle-terence-steele-agree-on-86-8-million-extension/

You can probably through North Crowley's Tyler Smith into this category as well.
