South Carolina defensive end commitment Shameik Blackshear (Bluffton, S.C.) models his game after former Gamecocks defensive end and No. 1 NFL Draft pick Jadeveon Clowney of the Houston Texans.
We saw Clowney see snaps on offense and score touchdowns during his career at South Pointe High in Rock Hill, S.C., so it stands to reason that Bluffton High would use Blackshear in the same manner.
Is Blackshear on Clowney's level as a high school player/prospect? No. Not many have been. But he's a special athlete despite the comparisons as you can see in the video below.
Blackshear is the No. 5 weakside defensive end prospect nationally in the 2015 class per 247Sports Composite rankings for the 2015 cycle and is the No. 1 overall prospect in the state of South Carolina.
