September 22 Nixa at Joplin my calendar is marked!Paul Bunyan type of stats at this point. 30+ on his ACT after 8th grade ended as well. Not a reclassify either. Didn't even turn 15 until May. I think he hits 70' next year in shot and 210' in discus all before he turns 16. Has the coaching, parents that have been there to keep his ego in check, work ethic, talent and genetics.
I would think NIL money is going to start flowing his way soon if his parents are willing to let him go to CA or wherever else you can capitalize as a high school athlete.
I have not heard anything but his size and he is great. My guess he is Oline?Do we know what he'll be doing on the football field and impact he's expected to have?
Last I heard he was an exceptionally gifted athlete in track but his impact on the football field was very unclear.
Would make sense? The guy I talked to said the kid is truly exceptional but knew next to nothing about football so he was skeptical he would have much impact at least not until late in his HS career. Who knows. He seems like the kind of kid capable of learning and picking it up extremely quickly to me.I have not heard anything but his size and he is great. My guess he is Oline?
Lol I almost referenced Brasky instead of Paul Bunyan but wasn't sure how it would go overIs he the offspring of Bill Brasky?
I'm not sure MSHSAA is in any position to limit NIL money given all the grifting they've done the past 5-10 years.Paul Bunyan type of stats at this point. 30+ on his ACT after 8th grade ended as well.

Apples to oranges!!! DGB had everyone jerking him off making him think he was a god that could do no wrong!!! I ran track against him and I remember him saying he was getting “gods gift” tattooed across his knuckles!!! Probably why he’s continued to struggle with life after high school! Judging by Cantwells parents they aren’t gonna allow him to get a big head like that!Remember, everyone thought DGB was awesome. All this early hype is usually not a good sign.
I am paraphrasing, but MO just passed a state law where HS athletes can start earning NIL money as soon as they sign a LOI with a MO university or college. NCAA and other University's are crying bc state law does not allow for NIL dealings to be investigated by the NCAA or specific conferences.Paul Bunyan type of stats at this point. 30+ on his ACT after 8th grade ended as well.

If NCAA doesn't like it then it must be good.I am paraphrasing, but MO just passed a state law where HS athletes can start earning NIL money as soon as they sign a LOI with a MO university or college.

DGB was awesome. He had all the physical tools and if that was the only factor he’d have had a very nice NFL career. But alas, he was moronic with his decisions and friends. And he wasn’t good enough yet to overcome that.Remember, everyone thought DGB was awesome. All this early hype is usually not a good sign.
7 catches for 58 yards, but your point still stands. Later that year they played Webb and he had two carries for -8 yards and one catch for -2 yards
The rest of that law states that the student can only receive $$$ if the college he/she signed with is a PUBLIC College/University and must be within the State of MissouriI am paraphrasing, but MO just passed a state law where HS athletes can start earning NIL money as soon as they sign a LOI with a MO university or college.

I was at that game and I remember a couple times he'd get the ball and he definitely stood out but that one kid couldn't take on the collective and much more refined game Webb City was throwing at them.Watched DGB hang like 350 yards on Seneca at mssu . Later that year they played Webb and he had two carries for -8 yards and one catch for -2 yards wasn't really his fault tho . Their line got completely dominated and it's hard to throw passes down field when the QB is getting hit within 3 sec every play . If I remember correctly Phoenix Johnson shadowed him all game
I’m more intrigued by the candy dish!
I love this photo. Look at the championship rings on the table. Quite the recruiting tool.
LOL I was going to say I noticed that before I noticed the rings.I’m more intrigued by the candy dish!
Just imagine how high he'd be ranked if he played at Webb.247sports initial 2026 prospect ratings have him as the number 6 in the nation. Big expectations for him.

He wouldnt be ranked. Kiante Hardin was a three star. In KC or STL he would have been a 5 star. I would be the first to say webb gets hosed on scouting by universities. That being said. The ones that actually do get scouted end up being somebody.Just imagine how high he'd be ranked if he played at Webb.
They are all somebody to their mommas 😍He wouldnt be ranked. Kiante Hardin was a three star. In KC or STL he would have been a 5 star. I would be the first to say webb gets hosed on scouting by universities. That being said. The ones that actually do get scouted end up being somebody.
Or at Ampipe!Just imagine how high he'd be ranked if he played at Webb.
DGB was awesome, athletically!Remember, everyone thought DGB was awesome. All this early hype is usually not a good sign.
Give Bosko hell, Lisa!Just imagine how high he'd be ranked if he played at Webb.
Just a hunch but I think Cantwell will be a beyond belief success. Cannot wait to go down and see him and the Eagles live this fall. Still targeting Sep 22 at Joplin.DGB was awesome, athletically!
Well reasoned. If they have a good O-line coach who can coach fundamentals then he should make great strides this year. He is obviously strong, intelligent and still young so growth in technique should follow, but he probably will struggle with the small quick defenders as you have noted.He will definately be an olympic thrower but watching his game film he stands straight up with little leg power and cannot move side to side well. Works well with bigger college de sizes but a small 6'1 210 de may blow around him not to mention a blitzing lb.
