SCOUTING: There are certain football prospects where watching them through the course of a game or practice can reveal a lot about that individual. Then, you have that big-time talent who jumps off the field from the moment you start watching. That playmaker - always around the ball and more times than not - changing the course of a game. Those quality prospects, who are indeed head and shoulders above the rest, can be determined after one or two snaps. This is one of those tremendous football players who we watched two years ago - and make no mistake, this is a big time prospect. Coming off a much-needed impressive spring - college coaches were impressed with what they saw from several players on this team. When watching Brooks play, he reminds many people of former Cougar, Bruce Davis, who was labeled as a linebacker, but watching him play enough, he was a safety as well - with exceptional coverage skills. This talented young man can play three positions on the defense, which frees him up to use his speed and instincts. As more people watch him play, they are all convinced that this is a talented young man.
