Boyd's Karson Gay Getting Big Time College Interest

Boyd buchanan tight end karson gay wasn't on the recruiting radar at all last year.

But after going bryson dechambeau in the weight room while football was on hold for the pandemic, gay is now getting offers this summer from power five schools.

Karson gay didn't do netflix during the downtime of spring's shelter in place.

Instead, he did net-flex.

Gay:"me and my dad.

We went out and got a weight rack.

I live in the basement pretty much, so we went and put that down there.

Just kind of went to work."

Bosken:"his dad has told me he was working out and stuff like that, but you hear that a lot.

But then when you actually see him walk down.

Just the way he carried himself.

His shoulders back.

His chest is out.

He was proud."

Who wouldn't be proud after adding 20 pounds of muscle.

Reporter:"when you walked back in and saw jeremy bosken.

He probably saw what your body was doing.

Do you recall any kind of reaction from him?"

Gay:"he got pretty excited.

He was definitely kind of 'fan-boying' a little bit almost.

He was like.

He was excited that i got a little bit bigger."

Morris:"he's a different animal.

He came back.

He was bigger, stronger, faster.

He somehow managed to get bigger."

Gay:"i have a ten foot broad jump, and a 4.61 forty.

I'm hoping i can get that down to the 4.5's in the next few weeks."

Those stats for a 6'6, 220 pound high school junior.

Hello college recruiters.

Reporter:"who was the first team to offer you?"

Gay:"ole miss.

It was about four hours later, and i had gotten a call from coach clark at byu, their tight ends coach.

He let me know i had an offer.

Then i believe it was monday i got a call, and tennessee offered me."

Bosken:"he has a dunking video out there right now that sold the byu coaches and oach clark at byu.

When they saw him do a little drop step dunk.

The ease he had with it.

The athleticism he carried.

That's what sold them on it."

Morris:"i'm just waiting for the basketball offers to start coming in during basketball season."

Reporter:"wow.

That's a possibility?"

Morris:"yes sir."

An athletic 6'6 target is always a quarterback's best friend.

Morris:"just throw it up, and he'll get it.

Against ccs that's what i did once.

I just threw it up.

I thought i was just throwing it to the sidelines.

Getting it out.

He managed to pick it out of the air.

I was like all right.
