SteelJacket Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 Norman had 105 solo and 9 TFL, he's about 5'-10" to 5'-11" tall and weighs 190-195, runs a 4.7, pretty sure he could play at the 3A-4A level no problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eagle34 Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 Palestine's Jarrell Owens and Brian Thlang invited to Tulsa Junior Day (April 6th).Frank, Tim McCoy & Levi Thompson from Harmony were both invited to the Tulsa Junior Day/Spring game as well. Weighing in on your LB options (I'm an admitted Harmony homer, just ask Eagleborn,lol) Thompson would definitely be a standout at a 4a or 5a school. The kid is big (215lbs.) strong (bench 335) and pretty fast (APEC timed 4.8). You have several 2a linebackers: Bryant -dfield, Williams- hooks, Hawkins - Arp, Norman- EF, Gibson - Grove and Thompson will matchup well with any of these guys. I know Long is a stud, but there is a reason Thompson is getting looks from UNT, Tulsa, etc.. It's tough to get recognition from a tradition weak program, but Thompson merits it.

Tiger1995 Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013  Norman had 225 tackles Gibson had 176 tackles Thompson had 121 tackles All play at the 2A level  While Williams had 130 tackles at the 3A level and Long had 80 tackles & 6 sacks at the 4A level.  I feel like Thompson is the odd man out. I'm just not sure if I want to replace him with Williams or Long.  Thoughts?    Frank imo Gibson of the grove should come off. The reason his tackle are as high as they are is so many teams running the same dive plays in the second half right at him with backups playing. Against good 1st teamers he lacked speed and power expected from an "all selection" LB. jmo... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

franksnbeans Posted March 28, 2013 Author Share Posted March 28, 2013 Palestine's Jarrell Owens impressed coaches a couple weeks ago at the Rivals camp in Houston  http://footballrecruiting.rivals.com/content.asp?CID=1484411  And, it looks more and more like he will be playing linebacker this upcoming season. So, I've moved him to the Util spot on the preseason list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
