6-YEAR-OLD PRODIGY LEVELS OPPOSITION

Years of mediocre football seasons at the University of South Carolina can be blamed on a few things, not the least of which has been recruiting.

Sure, the Gamecock coaching staff can always land a few high school standouts that turn into college stars, but consistently putting together a full team of top-notch talent has been difficult in Columbia.

So today, I’m doing my part to help.

The above video is of 6-year-old Nyrell Sevilla of Huntington, NY. As you can see by the two hits he lays down, Sevilla is a football prodigy.

In one play, he sneaks up on the unsuspecting quarterback and levels him. On another, he runs all the way across the field to jack up a runner a full five feet into the air.

And he’s only six… so that gives the Gamecocks a full 12 years to begin wooing this kid. If I were head coach Steve Spurrier, I would be buying my plane ticket right now.
