I just watch this kid yesterday in the Virginia 4A state championship game because we played his team.  This kid is legit.  He may be listed right now as a 3 star but I’m telling you this kid is going to fly up the rankings and be a four star by this time next year.  

He is listed at 5’11 but stood next to him in pregame and I think he is taller than that.  He is a two way player who had an amazing 1 handed pick and then 1 hand TD catch.  Rushed for over 2000 yards this season as well.   If he played in spread system instead of split back veer, he’d be a bigger name.  

Only negative that may be out there is what is his top end speed.  He is fast but not likely a 4.4 guy; probably 4.55-4.6 speed.   If RB didn’t work, he could play LB or SS for sure.   He looks like a full grown man at 16 years of age.

According to rivals profile he has 15 offers already with Clemson and USC being 2 of them.  I’d like to see USC steal him another kid like this out of Virginia.

Here are his mid season highlights. https://www.hudl.com/video/3/7627327/5db4b7d5b019230df41076bb

 
Would not be surprised if earns that 4th star like you said. Not the fastest but has the moves to make up for a little lack of speed.
