TerrellWitherspoon.

Terrell Witherspoon is a senior linebacker and safety at PURE Academy in Bowie, Maryland, and his profile is the rare one where the length, the testing and the transcript all agree. At 6-3 and 205 pounds with a 79-inch wingspan and 10-inch hands, he has the frame college staffs project at either second-level spot. The testing says the frame moves: a 4.41 shuttle, a 34-inch vertical, a 9-7 broad jump and a 4.73 forty. That shuttle is the number to circle — change of direction at 6-3 is what lets a linebacker cover a tight end and still fill a gap. His senior season has produced 31 tackles with an interception and a forced fumble, and his midseason senior film is on file. The weight room backs the play: a 245-pound bench, a 365-pound squat and a 245-pound power clean. Clark Atlanta offered in June, and a 3.95 GPA is what should widen that list considerably — a 6-3 linebacker with near-perfect grades is recruitable at academic-first programs that never see most of his position group. Lifting the 18 on the ACT to match the GPA is the piece that would open the rest.
