Mickey Plyler on Scott: "If it were not for Watson, Scott would be the headliner of the class. This is a terrific receiver with a lot of the physical skills to compete as a true freshman. Like the other four early enrollees, Scott will get a lot of attention in the spring. I am not sure he has the top end speed or the size of Sammy Watkins but there is a lot of Watkins skill set in Scott. He is outstanding in the open field and is probably the best of the options at receiver in terms of big play capability."
