Says Tyler is a RB, but he looks like the next great UW middle linebacker to me. Moves great with good size

He has some quickness but to me he looks like a guy you could put a bit more weight on and have him take over Parker Christensen's role.

They have some similarity. Both RB/LB. Both 6-2 coming out of HS. Parker had a few more pounds coming out of HS but both close in size (Parker beefed up to 235).

I like the comparison. BUT I think Parker's talents were wasted here at UW. He could have been an impact player on the defensive side of the ball. I bet Parker realized this and this is why he is now in chiropractor school and not still playing for the Pokes.

This is one of my coworkers kids. He's freaking huge!

Awesome!

What was his recruitment like? Did he have any scholarship offers?

I think just a couple FCS schools. He's a good kid, not sure he's FBS caliber but maybe with some training and coaching he can be?
