Notes from Jimbo Camp - Day 3
Pretty talented list of campers today. I thought the group of underclassmen today was particularly impressive. Here are some of my top players from today. Offer Watch2025 Atascocita RB Tory Blaylock - might have been my most impressive performer today. Really explosive young back with great bloodlines2024 Nashville (TN) CB Kaleb Beasley - Showed natural ball skills and great technique in coverage. Drew a bunch of praise from TJ Rushing and DJ Durkin2025 Pensacola (FL) RB CJ Nettles - On the small side but showed versatile skillset and big time quicks. 2024 Pensacola (FL) WR Jayvion Showers - Really solid all around day for Showers. Dameyune Craig and James Coley were pretty keyed in to each of his reps. 2024 Katy Seven Lakes LB Dakyus Brinkley - New to playing standup linebacker, but the raw athleticism and tools are off the chart. Son of Jasper Brinkley. Other NotablesLas Vegas (NV) WR Amari Derby 2024 Gregory-Portland LB Brodie Mitchell 2024 Gregory-Portland LB Colton Harrison 2024 Lumberton LB Avery Yarbrough 2024 Denton Guyer ATH Josiah Martin 2025 Pensacola (FL) WR Koby Howard (offered)2026 Iowa Colony QB Romin Seymour
