Athletic Excellence

At the time of his selection, the 6-foot-4, 226-pound senior quarterback had thrown for 1,863 yards and 31 touchdowns, leading the Eagles (12-0) to the TSSAA Division II Class A state final. Playing in 10 games this fall and often a spectator by the third quarter in lopsided outcomes, he also rushed 60 times for 536 yards and 10 scores, averaging 8.9 yards per carry. The state’s returning Gatorade Player of the Year, a four-time All-State selection and a finalist for the 2025 Tennessee Titans Mr. Football award, he’s ranked as the nation’s No. 5 recruit in his class by ESPN and No. 11 by 247Sports.
