Rivals $
5/5
From the Wisconsin site...top 6 is Michigan State, Ohio State, Texas Tech, Wisconsin, Vanderbilt and LSU. Talks about his interest in the Badgers and his plans for the summer.
Very surprised Illinois is not on his list...very surprised.

Michigan St. is doing a good job in Illinois this year. They don't have any commits, but I believe Buckner is seriously considering them.
But yeah, that list is extremely surprising. Looks like a combination of academics(Vanderbilt, Wisconsin, and Ohio State) as well as proven ability to produce receivers (Tech, LSU, and Ohio State).
Hmm.... I wonder who he should choose...L

It's tough to get much from his Rivals film imo, just because it has limited clips. However, he is a fluid athlete who seems to have good body control. He has good hands and seems to seperate well. He won't juke you out of your shoes but he has decent agility for his size. I personally like Fields a bit better but Appleton would be a great pickup for this class. A WR class of Fields, Appleton, and Jackson would be phenomenal but it may be first come, first serve between Appleton and Jackson.

I bet leach is selling Appleton early PT...which would be nothing suprising in their offensive system. Add the fact that Crabtree tore the NCAA up last year as a true freshmen. Texas Tech would be a fun system to play in for a WR. Texas Tech doesn't suprise me as much as Vandy.

Texas Tech is an easy sell for WRs...they probably had no business courting Julio Jones last year but they were in the thick of things until the end with Julio.
