Default Re: Devante Covington Thread (2013 Commitment)

Thank God I can finally post in here! Is the staff looking at him to be a true DE or maybe a hybrid DE/LB type? I mean I know he's still in high school and his body can change a lot, but I was just asking because of his size.

Quote:
DE Devante Covington (6-3 220) of Rockingham, NC became USC's 8th commitment for the 2013 class Monday night when he made his pledge to recruiter Shawn Elliott. Elliott visited with Covington last week. Covington also visited USC earlier in the spring. He also had offers from Clemson, Tennessee, East Carolina, NC State and Wake Forest. "South Carolina seems on the rise in the SEC and I want to be a part of it," Covington said. "I want to be a pass rusher and I give a lot of effort just like they do. Everybody on the team has a great attitude. It's a great place to be around the players. And the facilities are really good." Last season Covington had 34 tackles and 8 sacks. The Gamecocks are also recruiting his teammate OL Tyrone Crowder and the two have talked about going to the same school. "We are close, and we both want to be close to home, but I don't know what he wants to do," Covington said.

I think we have a guy that just left usc...called a tweener...NFL says he has short arms...is too small...we came to know him as MI6.

Don't trust everything the "experts" say.

After watching the Gamecocks commit, it's easy to see why the South Carolina staff apparently was so happy to land him. He's tall, lean, has a good reach and did a nice job getting off the ball quickly. Covington is a solid rush end, and he knows how to utilize his combination of speed and length to keep opposing tackles from engaging him too effectively.

Devante Covington's big frame, quickness and athleticism will serve him well at the next level but he needs to get stronger and study the game more. He's definitely one to watch for as a junior or senior
Was also listed as a big disappointment too:

Devante Covington has a big frame and a lot of potential but was not able to make many plays.
