Centennial junior OL David Yankey gets early offers | College recruiting | ajc.com

Centennial junior offensive tackle David Yankey, who already has scholarship offers from Duke and South Carolina, is expecting another when he visits Florida with Knights senior defensive end Euclid Cummings on Nov. 15, Centennial coach Jeff Measor said.

Measor also believes Georgia, Auburn and Alabama will extend offers to the 6-foot-5, 250-pound Yankey. The coach said that colleges like his lineman's long arms, great feet and flexibility.

"David is very aggressive, consistent and extremely smart and able to understand complex blocking schemes easily," Measor said. "I've coached in college and have been part of the recruiting process from the other end, and David is the best offensive line prospect I've ever seen."
