Two things are certain. No. 1 overall recruit Kayvon Thibodeaux will choose a school on Saturday, Dec. 15, and the five-star defensive end will make an immediate impact for that defense next fall.

Talent off the edge can change the landscape in today's college football game that is dominated by passing, and Thibodeaux has lots of it.

Standing at 6-foot-5 and weighing nearly 240 pounds, "KT" is as fast and athletic as any premier linebacker in this class with the explosive power you want in a defensive lineman. The coordinator who lands him should have immediate success with him in the lineup.
