Blue-Grey All-American Combine: Southwest Regional Scouting Report (2016)

With interest from teams in the Big 12 Conference, Kaylon Geiger was among the top prospects at the recent Blue-Grey All-American Combine (Southwest Regional).

No secret, and for the most part it’s true, some of the nation’s top prospects on the whole prep circuit typically come from one of three states. Those being, of course, California, Florida and Texas.

After already making stops in the Golden State and Sunshine State, the notion held up well again this weekend during the Blue-Grey All-American Combine (Southwest Regional) at UT Arlington (TX).

NFL veterans Ray Crockett, Tony Banks and Larry Ryans were a few of the one-time professionals turned instructors and here’s a look at the individuals who left a lasting impression in the Lone Star State.

Jaylon Gipson, QB, Mexia (TX): The 6-foot-2 and 195-pound junior impressed around this time last year, but was not on hand to deliver an encore effort. Still, he remains firmly on the radar.
