I got a 6-10 high jumper Ross might want to look at. Not sure if Ross even recruits jumpers like that, but he also goes 45ft in triple. 6-10 wins most MEAC meets. And he is just a JUNIOR. Kendal Artis at Rolesville high school.
I know I can reach him eventually because he works the HS circuit really well, but just wanted to put it out there anywhere I could for now.

But 7-1 won the MEAC Outdoor last year. He would definitely be interested. |

He has potential @ 45' and 6'10" and that's what it's about . A&T needs Field event and distance personal and the young man is only a Junior . Hit Ross up about him .

Not a bound, so he is very raw in the triple. 45ft with no 2nd phase is actually amazing! We are just starting to teach him 2nd phase. We have 2 years to fix it considering he a junior and track season just started. He'll be out at or pass 50ft by the time he graduate. T |

You didn't say all that the first time.  Definitely need to put Coach Ross on that. |

Track rarely makes an offer prior to senior year, so I'm just seeing what schools even have interest in nurturing a jumper on the men's side. Not really sure if its Ross's thing or not? I need to go look where his guys stand historically in the jumps. |

Hmmm,
In the MEAC outdoor, 6-10(what he is currently jumping as a junior in highschool) would have gotten him 4th. The winning triple was basically a 50. Yeah, he'll be beastly in both before he graduate. A&T guys did 6-9(SR) and 49ft(JR) respectively. He'll be better than both those guys coming out of high school.

I need to go look where his guys stand historically in the jumps. It comes down to points based on 12.6 scholarships. If you have a young man that can potentially get you 20 pts in the MEAC meet and qualify for NCAA Regionals/Indoor Nationals, then the antenna will definitely be up. Kayla White was discovered & signed because she started late and was in her development phase leaving school. Sounds like your young man may be further along. |

He'll definitely get offers, I'm just trying to push A&T on him for obvious reasons. I think its a better cultural fit for him instead of some of these PWIs. For example, Liberty has already offered some money. |
