I'm super impressed with Griffin's skills in coverage. He's quick on his feet, has excellent ball skills and timing, and frequently breaks underneath passes to force PBUs and INTs. </em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><em>I'm most impressed with Griffin's instincts, IQ, and sideline-to-sideline speed. He flies around the field every snap to create stops, regardless of how far away from the action he is. It's seriously impressive to watch; he's a defender you have to pay attention to every single snap. Opelika's secondary will be a must-watch unit this fall."</em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Griffin's recruitment has been on fire this month, picking up offers from Kentucky, UT Martin, Utah State, and many more. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>I'm seriously impressed with the season Griffin had last fall.
