Zach Boyd, an offensive lineman at Highland Park High School in Dallas, accepted a scholarship offer from June Jones during his official visit last weekend, HP head coach Randy Allen confirmed on Monday.
Boyd, 6-4 and 258 pounds, played offensive tackle and is a two-year starter in a spread offense at HP, which was 15-1 and lost in the Texas Class 4A Division II state championship game last season.

6'4 258lb...anyone know this kid? Can he pack on the pounds without giving up much?

Like a lot of HP guys, he's supposed to have exceptional technique, and a need for greater bulk.

Another year, another scholarship for a HP kid so we can stay in good graces with the community.

I don't have a problem with it. And HP ripped Marshall a new one a couple of years ago with their "Band of Brothers" group. Ouch.

Go get as many as possible. Can only help.

the traditional last weekend H.P. Bubba Scholarship-given annually to underprivileged Bubble kids who would not otherwise have an opportunity to go to a Division 1A school to play college football. Remember when we used to get HP kids everyone in Texas wanted?

But there were not any recruited this year by big schools. He may be the best one.

You've got a talent to understand the nuances of recruiting talent. Unfortunately, you continually waste your gift because you aren't grateful for it.

Here's a tip: Go watch a HS football game IN PERSON. In fact, go out and watch a season's worth. When you do that and give a first-hand eyeball evaluation.

When you can do that, let us know.

Worked with this kid while I helped out in the Ronnie V. O-line camp this past summer. I like his build and I really like his tech......this really stood out to me. I think this is a good pick up. I look forward to seeing how he develops.
