Rivals Profile
Film 1
Film 2
Film 3
Film 4
Lists high interest in Florida and Virginia early on. Also listing Boston College, North Carolina, Maryland, NC State, Ohio State, Penn State, Rutgers, Stanford, and Tennessee. Had 700 yards rushing with 12 TD's and 60 tackles his sophmore year. Was listed on the Rivals 100 for '09 at #95, though after watching his film, I say he is much higher. He is extremely fast for a LB and hits like a truck. He reads plays well and shoots the gap very well. Great off the edge and he also is a smart player...he does a good job of not outrunning plays. He does a great job of making the big hit when he can but he also breaks his feet down well and makes a solid tackle. He is also a good RB where he shows breakaway speed and good power. I know we have Klein and Whiting but I would love to see us offer Jenkins. I would say he is closer to an ATH because he can play SS, Will, or even RB on offense. He is just an athlete you don't pass on if you can get him.

Jelani is up to 17 offers now, with the most recent coming from Miami(FL). Says everybody is equal and he is just taking them in as they come, will research the schools and isn't really paying attention to recruiting right now.
My take... Jelani is 6'1" 205 and has 4.45 speed. he would look great next to Wood as the safties in this class. Impressive video, really seems to wrap up and hit the ball-carrier. Besides, we could use another stud Jenkins in the secondary as well... since Malcolm won't be with us after this coming year.
