About Brooks
Expert Analysis
Connor Jackson | Prep Redzone Scout
Darling plays both ways for Sequoyah and has an argument to be the most well-rounded football player in Cherokee County. His traits aren’t going to catch your eye, but his execution and feel for the game certainly do. He has an outstanding feel for space as a receiver, and as a defender, he is always in the right spot. He has the ball skills and just enough juice athletically to execute when given the opportunity.

A quick, crafty wideout who can fly down the field and make plays vertically, Darling is a versatile weapon who can be a giant mismatch in the slot. One of the more productive receivers in the area last fall, Darling is coming off a strong junior season where he caught 56 passes for 931 yards and 11 touchdowns. His best game of the seadosn came against Coffee in the season finale where he caught 12 passes for 262 yards and two touchdowns. He’s bound for a massive senior season in 2025 if he continues to work hard over the next several months.

Read EvaluationMatt DeBary | Prep Redzone Scout
A consistent wideout from Cherokee County who came to play week in and week out, Darling is a crisp route-runner who got open consistently all year long as a junior this fall. He brings dependable hands, above-average athleticism, and was one of the more productive wideouts in the country and across the region for the 2026 class. After an outstanding season, Darling was an easy addition to the latest 2026 rankings, coming in at No. 285 in the state according to Prep Redzone. He caught 56 passes for 931 yards and 11 touchdowns.
