Dylan ("Dino") Embry QB Locust Fork, AL

[bamaee04]

I know this kid plays for a small 3A school, but this kind of grit and talent deserves a look. I hope that the staff will give him a chance at potentially earning a preferred walk on spot if he can't garner a scholarship offer. The link below is from week 3 of the season, but updated stats through 4 games are:

1,364 yards rushing and 16 TDs (leading the nation in rushing yards, yes you read that right)
547 yards passing and 4 TDs
1 punt return for a TD

Impressive looking athlete. Does he play safety? Not sure he is Bama good but he should garner some interest it seems.

Impressive, but at 5'11" (which is probably an exaggeration) he probably doesn't have a career as a QB at a major college.

Not totally for sure CKD wouldn't recruit another dual threat type QB like we currently have, but his offense is designed around a pure passer, first and foremost.

But if this kid is an explosive athlete, it's not surprise they are using him at QB on the HS level, but he may have a future at another position in college.

Agreed, he will likely have to change positions to play at the next level. I think he has played some defense, but since making the move to their starter at QB, I think that has stopped...

Great looking young man and he is doing great things. I could see a preferred in his case but in the SEC it is all about measurables. Unless he runs a legit 4.4 and has extreme wiggle, 5'11 will not garner a scholarship unfortunately imo.

Anyone remember that pesky little slot receiver who seemed to have a 17-year career at Clemson

My great grandfather and my son played with him.

Looks like a great fit at one of the Service Academy’s, or Georgia Southern.

It doesn't look like he's currently in the 247 database.

He’s played QB and defense his entire career. Listed as MLB also. His HS was 2A last year, got reclassed to 3A this year. His Hudl profile has some heavy lift numbers and he lists a 4.5/40.
