Overview:

It’s worth noting that one of the coaches Flowers was recruited by was former Penn State defensive coordinator Brent Pry, who recently accepted the Virginia Tech head coaching job. So, it’s definitely a plus that him leaving had no effect on Flowers.

If there’s one thing that sticks out about Flowers’ game, it’s that he is an aggressive player. He is a bit of a high tackler at times, but makes up for it with his physicality.

Like other recruits in this class, Flowers also has the ability to play more than one position. He stands 6-foot-1 and 190 pounds and has shown his capability of playing a bit of receiver.

As a defender, Flowers displays nice hip mobility and can get to the ball quickly.

Nothing is certain, but it seems likely that he will be playing primarily on the defensive side of the ball. However, his body frame isn’t something to overlook.

Flowers has the potential to be a game-changer for the Nittany Lions. With a strong and versatile class coming in, Flowers could lead the way at making a quick impact.
