Sounds like a PWO.

"The trajectory he creates is also towards the top of his class nationally and if can consistency lock his leg out through ball/foot contact He can become one of the top field goal kickers in the 2023 Class."

Reed Malphurs, 6-6, 205, Sr., Dallas Hillcrest

Yes, you read those measurables correctly. After booting a 57-yard field goal against Seagoville as a junior last year, the sizable kicker turned the heads of scouts and helped the Panthers to a 7-4 season and a playoff berth.

His accuracy and power helped him earn District 6-4A Special Teams Player of the Year and honorable mention on the Texas Sports Writers Class 5A All-State Team.

Malphrus, who also punts and plays wide receiver for Hillcrest, has not committed to a college. He is garnering interest from big-time Power 5 programs like Arkansas, LSU, Mississippi State, TCU and Texas Tech, among others.

This kid is kicking the shit out of the ball and it looks like he's barely even touching it. I just watched him whack it 70+ yards (35 second mark) and it looked like he wasn't even trying.

 

Exactly what I came here to say. He's barely following through at all and the ball is going 70+ yards. No idea if he'll ever amount to anything or what his accuracy's actually like but he seems like a very nice gamble at PWO to me.

He's already a weapon as is. I don't know how much you mess with his technique. Someone who grills shrimp on a barbee should probably answer that question. I don't care if he kicks standing on his head, as long as he is consistent at long range. As mentioned, he also looks lilke a legit athlete and that's always a good thing.

I'm no kicking expert but watching this guy kick and based on stuff I've read about Tucker, it seems our boy Reed has some additional power to unlock.

Really appreciate hudl circling the kicker so we know which guy to watch.
