Coach: Isaiah Crowell is an old-school defensive back
If you like old-school football, then Kernersville (N.C.) East Forsyth High head coach Todd Willert believes you are going to like NC State’s newest commitment, three-star defensive back Isaiah Crowell.

“A lot of colleges said he is one of the best pure tacklers they have seen on film, his highlight film and game film,” Willert noted. “He loves to tackle. He’s not afraid of contact. You really don’t see that a lot with high school kids anymore.

“He is always looking to do more.”
