Q&A with Woodward Academy nickel/strong safety Eli Lyles prepvarsity.com/ga-prep-varsit… @lyles_t56775

When you combine a 200-pound frame, an All-State football pedigree, high-level academic discipline, and All-Region center field range, you aren't looking at an "undersized linebacker." You are looking at a pure, high-lQ athlete who brings a rare toolset to a college defense.But looking at the "big fish in a small pond" angle, it's worth shifting perspective on how modern college scouts see me. Rather than a standard "undersized linebacker,"' college programs are increasingly looking for precisely what I bring to the table: a high-IQ, hybrid defender.

I’ve accepted a role with the University of Maryland as a Scouting Assistant. Grateful for the opportunity. #TBIA
