[TheReal_jayD]

This is one of the 🧩 from a while back. He has been silently committed for months. Great offer list and size.

Would he play DE for us?

[Jdawg48]

Wow we beat out some good programs! Hopefully this dude can make an impact!

Stats for 9 games:

37 carries 410 yards 8 TDs

36 Tackles (29 solo) 10 TFL 2 sacks 3 FF

I can't find his highlight film for the season, but he played in one of the toughest districts in the state. To do this against that type of competition is impressive. I really like the offer list as well. Great job by the staff! Welcome Zhaiylen!

Hopefully has the speed to play LB.

@TheReal_jayDnow this is a great get by the staff. Silently committed for months makes me confident we'll keep him as well.

He showed "warm" to SMU on 247 as well.

I am thinking LB. Really small for an oust side down lineman in the current dumbass defense we are running. We need some big boys in the middle

Looks like Cedar Hill’s staff only has partially uploaded stats. In the games they have uploaded stats for, he had runs of 65 yards (Arlington Martin), 66 yards (Southlake Carroll), and 74 yards (Mansfield).

UNT is a good fit for him in my opinion. Could have over-signed like most kids do. 

Portal wish list:

Steven Parker - Edge at UIW - Committed to TX Tech but followed for HS coach (Emmett Jones) to Kansas. Jones is now at OU and he may follow. FCS Defensive player of the year. 3-4 star at South Oak Cliff a few years ago. Grad transfer. 

Jordan Crook - LB at Arkansas & Duncanville HS.

Both great names to watch 👀

This is what I like to see!

6'3 230 lb humans should not be able to move like that. Pretty impressive. I want to see him on both sides of the ball.

Love it!!!

What would be the reason to commit silently? Ability to rack up more offers and increase 247 grade?

different reasons. some kids dont want to commit publicly until after their hs season is over. lines up with what he did.

Play him at MLB and call it a day
