Needed to get a good running back or two in this class. If we could get the guy from Northland, too, that would awesome.

Same high school as Daz Patterson, no?

With the 2018 class there was misinformation about true ht./wt. data. With Mr. Wilborn I have seen 5'10" to 5'11" and 200-215 lbs.

Would mean something to me if they timed players in full pads on turf.

Daz went to Plant City. Plant High is in South Tampa, Plant City is a town East of Tampa towards Orlando. Easy mistake to make.

I think this guy has a great opportunity to get a chance to play early. I know Ohio is high on RBs on its roster like Allison but, based on the highlight films, this dude looks ready to play now physically. Like Daxon and Burton at DT, he is stepping into a situation where there is an opportunity to play.

The only thing I don’t like is his propensity to try to jump over tacklers....that can get you hurt.

Ha! Good Eye. I did remember him doing that a few times now that you say it.

I don't want to overhype him, but I think he has the potential to be a star runningback for us. I am excited about all of our recruits. This looks like such an awesome class. But, the raw talent and skill of Walter Wilbon III excites me for the future of bobcat football the most.

Linemen love backs like Oullette/Irons and Brown of recent years. Mr. Wilbon is cut from the same cloth. All I can say is that Mr. Ross and Mr. Allison need take very good care of the ball. We know what happens when fumbles happen.
