247 sports say 5-10 with offers from Toledo among others- they rate 3 stars and #4 player from Germany.
Don’t know what to make of this

Rated 5.3 by Rivals, and 82 by 247Sports. Offers from Toledo, Miami (Ohio), and MTSU, as well as Yale, Jacksonville State, and Presbyterian.

Yes, he has highlights as well:

It's hard to tell how that translates from German football to NCAAF. He seems to rely on his speed, so WR is another place he might play.

I’ve seen this kind of highlight reel before.

Can you say Maleek Irons.

He going to learn at this level, #1 the hurdle is illegal, #2 he will get hit when he carries the ball. Highlight film was kind of worthless, because 95% of the plays he never gets touched. Kid has some wheels, nice jump cuts and vision, but you aint making 7 cuts in a run in the US, defenses actually know and understand purist angles.

That’s why I mentioned Maleek.

They both had a poor level of competition. They were like men against boys. It will be men against men once they enter college D1.

With that said I’m sure Rob Cornelius would watch that film and say That’s Ridiculous.

Billy, as far as I can find as of articles written in 2022 and 2023, an offensive player is allowed to jump over defenders in order to gain extra yardage. The illegal hurdling/leaping rule is for defenders jumping over the linemen in order to block FGs and Extra point plays.

that isn't to say I am 100% right. I may have missed something somewhere. lol

And, if that's the case, you have come to right place and the right thread to be told so.

You are correct, NCAA took it out in 2017 for the offense, sad how I forgot that. The ironic thing is, hurdling was put in for the defense as a safety rule, but if you have the ball in your hands its a safe play? And the ball carrier is the only one who can legally hurdle or leap. My bad

I think we are one serious injury away from this rule being revised. Every time I see a ball carrier leap over a defender I kind of shutter as i see so much potential for a bad injury if the player being jumped over makes just the wrong move.

Last Bobcat recruit I recall who was sub-11 in the 100 was De'Montre Tuggle (although I'm probably missing some)

I hope this kid is the greatest running back to ever set foot on campus. Thank goodness there are no running backs in the state of Ohio to impede OUr European Recruiting.
Fingers crossed. Looks the part.
