Spoke with Kevin earlier in the recruiting season. He was recruited by Coach Choice and Coach Koonz. Kevin was very complentary of both coaches. He held offers from Tx State and NMSU. He visited NMSU this week. He was a 1st Team all district LB for Judson last year as a Jr. He visited North Texas a week or so ago. He said it had a very nice feel about it which led to commitment. Very Nice addition to keep the 5 day streak going! Will have more from the interview later!

His film reminds me of Tyreke Davis when he was at Ryan.

Please all the linebackers

This guys film is awesome. How is he just barely a 3*?

Usually, we see DB/LB highlight tapes with these HUGE hits, but they're often undisciplined, & rarely wrapping up. They just rely on the force they bring to knock the target into next week. It works for them at their High School level because they're amazing athletes.
Try that at the FBS level though, and the dude you hit will just shed it, or stiffarm you 5yds back and keep going... because he's also an amazing athlete.

There were only a few hits where Wood didn't actually wrap-up and bring down his target... still with some serious ferocity.

This goes way back but I just saw Wood's video and his rating is a highway robbery. Likewise I also looked at Taylor Jacobs and he also got the shaft. These guys have great recognition, speed to get there and they wrap up. Converse Judson and SGP are a high level of competition and they deserve better.

I really liked the Murphy twins too. They do about the same as Wood and Jacobs but at a little lower level of competition (Bishop Lynch). I have no argument with their ratings.
