08:13 AM ET 07.26 | On the face of things, the scene wasn't all that odd. Last week, a hopeful prospect showed up at LSU's July football camp. He posted an impressive 4.46 40-yard dash, and he earned a scholarship offer from the Tigers' coaching staff for his efforts. It's a scene that plays out on college campuses every single summer, although this offer was different for one main reason -- Dylan Moses has yet to start eighth grade. Considering the Tigers are only just starting to hand out offers to members of the Class of 2014, it came as a bit surprise for a 2017 prospect to get one. "I was kind of shocked when I first heard it -- it was a dream come true," Moses, 14, said. "I've always wanted to play for LSU since I was a kid, and now it's coming true."

Prime of life is between 3 and 13 (14 in this case) At age 3 you have all the questions and age 13 you have all the answers!

You all need to get a sarcasm meter... And Moses is a monster.. And Washington has a 14yo that committed... where is OT... Since I know he was trying to hammer LSU about this...Then again UDub is irrelevant and will get hammered in BR this year

back at ya with the sarcasm meter :)

I think the kid is a product of BALCO

When I heard his numbers.. I was like wtf... cant be real, they are fudging it.. I was wrong..But then again, Leonard Fournette was a beast as well as a freshman in HS.. same type size..Balco or a relative on Mandingo!!..Not really directed at you.. but i lurked that day and I think some thought I was serious.. And depending on when his b-day is..he could be a year behind..which some schools do on purpose

I've made serious comments of the psu topics, so some are taking my comments on others a little too serious

On the serious side, does he really run 4.4s?

A little flat chested but I have always been a leg man myself. Feet are a little big for me though.
