Height: 6-foot-3
Weight: 205 lbs
Class: 2021 (high school)

Allen Trieu
NATIONAL RECRUITING ANALYST
EVALUATED 04/29/2020
PROJECTION: Power-5 Starter

Good overall size and length. Solid bulk and build to him already in high school. Will be a big, physical college receiver. Smooth and has good ball skills. Tracks it well in the air and will use his size to go up and win contested passes. Will adjust well to passes and shows good body control. No verified speed as far as a laser time or a track time. Can still get more straight-line explosive. Projects safely as a red-zone guy and productive short to intermediate receiver. Upside is higher especially if he is able to get to another gear top-end wise.

THAT WAS THEN....


THIS IS NOW....

The Buckeyes receiver search in 2021 has been entirely focused on 5-star prospect Emeka Egbuka for the last few months, and there’s no reason to expect that to change even if they do take a deeper gander at Markus Allen. As the unknowns around Covid-19, its impact on the current Buckeyes roster and future recruiting continue, the Ohio State staff is going to leave no stone unturned. Allen is a very good football player worth a good long look.

Looks like a future bullet/linebacker to me....

Perusing twitter I came across a clip of him at WR blocking/destroying some smaller DB and Brian Hartline had already liked the clip. I thought it was weird at the time considering he was a ttun commit but then the news of him decomitting hit and....well......interdasting

Huge step up in the world. Congrats to Markus....

Great pickup for Wisky. I have not doubt he will be successful there. They have a long history of having very good WRs from Ohio.

Just absolutely incredible to see a respectable program poach a respectable recruit from an absolute trash bed of a situation.

truly great to see this play out. He could have a good career.

Decommitted from SCUM?

 

[TooTall]

This kid is the real deal. Would’ve loved him at Ohio State, but they are on an insane level recruiting WRs. Just glad he’s not going to Michigan.

 

[Jaxbuck]

Eh. OSU will still likely have to play him once a year and now he’ll actually be developed and used by coaches that know what they are doing.

Good for the kid I guess and always fun to see them lose anyone but this isn’t any kind of net win for OSU on the field.

Definitely passes the "look test".....

Ominous Tweet from a former TTUN (current Wisky) commitment....
