Dorial was named the Max Preps National Athlete of the year, as a sophmore. He is the first non senior to win the award, he has heard from 50 plus schools, and is probably one of the top 10 in 2012.

 

6'6"- 17 years old

 

He's an OU lean from what I know, and his adoptive father/coach is a MU guy, but he does name Nebraska in a recent article.

"I still have Mizzou up there," Green adds. "Florida, Oklahoma, Arkansas, LSU, Nebraska, Wisconsin, all of them are still open. Dorial can pick just about anybody he wants because the 6-foot, 5-inch receiver is considered the top recruit in the nation for 2012 after catching 23 touchdowns for over 1,600 yards in helping Hillcrest make a rare playoff berth. But Green also averaged 19 points and 8 rebounds as Missouri's Class 5 MVP in basketball, where he helped the Hornets to a state championship. And in track and field, Green won individual state titles in the 100-meter dash and triple jump.

Visited Florida last week, has made trips to OU, Arkansas and MU also from what i've heard.

 

He has verbal offers currently from OU, MU, Arkansas, tOSU, Florida, UCLA and Nebraska.

 

He is targeting NSD 2012 to make his decision, so there's a long way to go.

 

His first offer came from Missouri State's (former KU coach) Terry Allen when he was in 8th grade.

He's actually only 16. And he also has offers from USC, Kansas, Wisconsin, Southern Miss, Iowa, and recently

received one from Notre Dame. I'm sure there's more, but these, plus the ones you mentioned, are for sure.

Thanks for the update. Welcome to the board.

I went to college in Springfield and grew up at Lake of the Ozarks. Went to Camdenton High School.

 

Hillcrest is not a football power and rarely has a decent team ... so this one was rather surprizing to read. Some very solid 5A schools in that area ... Ozark, Camdenton & Glendale to name a few.

He is, and was 17 at the time of your post. He was born April 12, 1993.

"I started dunking in the seventh grade," he said. "I really didn't start playing football until my seventh grade year."

 

In the spring, Green took his talents to the track, where he posted a time of 22.21 seconds in the 200 meters, one of the fastest times in the country for his grade.

Sure he's 17? He's a manbeast. What a steal would it be to grab him.

[MUTigerFan]

This kid will end up being the #1 recruit in the country.

 

Besides the football, he lead his BB team to a state championship (I watched that game, not knowing who he was and thought "Who's the man-boy in the middle getting every rebound and scoring at will?" and he's state 100 meter champ too.

 

And being adopted by his coach, hopefully he stays on the straight and narrow academically, too.

Hes going to be on the cover of ESPN the magazine. As a junior in high school that is amazing.

Wow, that's crazy. He is a beast.

He is looking at us though.

That's called God-given talent. He is a physical specimen.

[Danny Bateman]

If we land this kid, I promise to never bitch about us failing to land big time WR recruits again. I'm happy with the guys we get, but they are clearly not on this dude's level.

 

In my mind, he'd be a bigger get than Julio Jones or A.J. Green or Kyle Prater or Markeith Ambles or Darius White or any other WR that comes to recent memory.
