'07 NC OL Trinton Sturdivant

Scout Profile

Anson

Height: 6-foot-6
Weight: 285 pounds
40-yard dash: 5.1 seconds
Vertical leap: 28 inches
GPA: 3.9
SAT: 910

There is discussion of Trinton being a top 5 OL talent for the class of 2007. He was considered a Clemson lean at one point, but with his recruitment opening up now, he is open to other schools. He holds 30 offers and picked up an offer from tOSU last week. Trinton plans to decide in June.

My Take: Trinton's athleticism is amazing. He uses his hands well and has very active feet. Overextends at times but that will be corrected quickly at the next level. Great offer, but very difficult to pull above the Mason-Dixon line.

Grad- would you consider him a project or a more polished-type of O-lineman?

Polished but not college-level polished. Usually, OL have to figure out what they are getting away with at the HS level does not work at the college level. There isn't much Trinton needs to work on though...leverage/base issues, but that is really being picky on my part.

I agree Grad, he looks very impressive, would love to steal him away from the South, but I agree with you that is probably won't happen.

Trinton says Georgia is his leader then Clemson and Florida. He was impressed that Clemson commitment Will Korn has been calling him

Note: This update was done before the tOSU offer.
