NoCal DL racking up offers

One of Northern California’s best defensive line prospects is Alex Morrow (6-6, 260, 4.72) from Rohnert Park (Calif.) Rancho Cotate.
This young man has unlimited potential. All you have to do is look at his size and speed to know that Morrow could turn into something special. Factor in his strength and you’ll be even more impressed.

Morrow benches 365 pounds, squats 450 and power cleans 320. Talk about explosion, Morrow recorded a 33.9 vertical jump for Rancho Cotate head coach Ed Conroy.
The good news for Pac10 fans is Morrow wants to stay close to home and play his football in the Pac10 conference.
Morrow already has offers from USC, Oregon, Oregon State, Washington and Arizona. Stanford and UCLA are also in the hunt. The Cardinal and Bruins haven’t offered yet, but they are recruiting him hard.
Morrow is a tremendous athlete who participates in track. Believe it or not this big guy ran the 100-meter for his track team and recorded an 11.9. That is moving for a 6-foot-6, 260-pounder. Morrow was also a part of the 4x100 and shot put.
What is this young man looking for in a school?
“I am looking for a quality education, a quality football program and the location is also something I’m looking at,” Morrow said. “The quality education is important just in case football doesn’t work out. I also want to stay close to home, that’s why I want to play in the Pac10.”
USC, Oregon, Oregon State, Washington, Arizona, Stanford and UCLA are all even at this time. Morrow wants to take his time and research all seven schools.
Morrow will start both ways as a senior. He will line up on defense as a tackle and end. On the offensive side of the ball, Morrow will play tackle.
The scouting report on Morrow is he has great size, speed and overall athleticism. Again, he has unlimited potential.
Morrow racked up 55 tackles, six sacks and had approximately 15 tackles for loss. He had one fumble recovery in the championship game.
Morrow is definitely one to keep your eye. The entire Pac10 is.
