Is this a heater?
It’s been a relatively quiet spring for Football recruiting but this week has felt like the old days where it just seems like Eli Drinkwitz is sending out bat signals left and right. Two days after adding Chicago RB Maxwell Warner, and one day after adding Michigan OT Khalief Canty, Jr the Bat signal went out again this morning.
This time it’s a new toy for Wide Receiver coach Jacob Peeler. A 6’5 athlete of a Wide Receiver from Edwardsville, IL in Devyon Hill-Lomax.
Hill-Lomax was on campus this past weekend, as diagrammed by our new recruiting writer True Deck, and he was impressed enough to sign up to be a Tiger.
This is the 7th commitment in the class and the second Wide Receiver after Pompano Beach, FL native Jabari Brady. Welcome to the club, Devyon!

Obviously at 6’5, Hill-Lomax stands out for his size and apears to have good athleticism as he’s able to high point throws and go up and over smaller DBs. He’s a 6’8 high jumper on the track team, so the upside here could be elite if he can put the rest of it together.
