Overview: Powell is an important commitment for Wake Forest because he secures the future of the quarterback position in Winston-Salem. The Demon Deacon coaches have focused mostly on replenishing their linebacker corps. They have five commitments at that position and the class as a whole is skewed towards the defense. The secondary has also received a lot of focus from the coaching staff.
