Woodie is all business, a 3.6 student with good speed and athletic ability who will make a great college safety.

He'll make his own decision about recruiting, and he's not a lock to Oregon. His father played linebacker at USC. Woodie III grew up liking the Florida Gators. He's already a national recruit with a lot of offers from top schools. As yet, the Ducks haven't made an offer, which is curious. Scott or A.J. might know more about that.
He played QB his first two years and some sites have him rated as high as #8 as a dual-threat quarterback. Sheldon will use him as a slot receiver and DB this year, have him return kicks.
His time at QB and growing up around the game have made him an exceptionally smart football player, a great trait in a safety. He told Tyler Donahue of Landof10.com,
“My time at quarterback helps a lot because I know how to set [opposing quarterbacks] up by disguising coverages,” Woodie said. “When you can cause confusion, that creates opportunities for interceptions."
Not many high school juniors think like that, or can talk about those kind of concepts.
