Pretty crazy Tumwater has two legitimate prospects at TE in Terry and Otton’s brother. I hope we take both.

The Otton’s are good football players. Cade could have played defense and I would assume his brother could too. If I’m not mistaken, his brother is a bigger guy than Cade.

Don’t know much about this kid, but I’m going to pass on a DB recruit that wrestles instead of playing basketball.

Why? It kinda makes sense. If he can ball as a db then the wrestling skills would be awesome for tackling and wrapping up.

I was mostly kidding, but a skill player or DB wrestling typically means they lack something athletically if they aren’t playing basketball. Best athletes almost always play basketball. Those are the positions you can’t great athletes at.

A lineman or LB wrestling? No problem.
 
Wrestlers are some of the best fast twitch athletes out there.

You are aware that lots of football players wrestle instead of basketball and not just dline or oline types ...

There are lighter weight classes.
 
Tevis Bartlett was a national champion wrestler. He was a nice football player for us, not sure I would classify him as fast twitch. In general, I think RD is correct on this. Basketball>wrestling for skill position football talent and those that guard skill positions, CB, LB.
