Fryar is a 6-2, 227, Freshman linebacker from Steilacoom HS, Stellacoom, WA. He may not be a plug and play guy, but Fryar has the build, speed and athleticism to develop into a quality linebacker. Here's Brandon Combs, AZ Desert Swarm, take:
Fryar has an excellent build for an inside linebacker, much like current freshman D.J. Mourning. He is surprisingly faster than I originally thought and that helps him in his other role as a RB for Steilacoom High School.
He has a natural athleticism and awareness that help him as a backer. He is able to use that awareness and vision in order to read and react to the offense. He then uses the athleticism and speed to finish plays. He is a decent tackler and has shown to be effective in pass coverage as well.
He has a really high ceiling and will need at least a year to develop fully as a backer in the Pac-12. There are a few national and western area recruiting writers who really like Fryar. I agree and think that he is a steal in this class.
Highlights - Fryar is 18 and plays RB, DB as well as LB
