Tucker, which could have as many as five seniors sign with major colleges, will have one of its prized prospects on the sidelines with an injury for the next two months.
Defensive back David Lee, who has an offer from South Alabama and serious interest from several ACC schools, broke his collarbone in a freak fall at passing league. It was a big blow for Lee, who had made dramatic improvements since last season.
“He was really blossoming into a major-college prospect, and then this happened,” Tucker coach Franklin Stephens said. “However, he’ll make a 100-percent recovery, and join us in the middle of the season. He’ll still have plenty of time to show the colleges what he can do.”
The 6-foot-3, 190-pounder projects to play linebacker in college. Lee won the Class AAAA championship in the triple jump last year, and is consistently clocked around 4.5 in the 40, according to Stephens.
Tucker’s other top prospects are wide receiver Drayton Calhoun (committed to LSU), linebacker Jonathan Davis, defensive end Deion Roberson and quarterback Chris Beck.
