KCK Preps - Player Spotlight - Darion Griffin

I was thrilled to get a look at a few players from different schools this past weekend.  One player that really caught my eye during the workout was Darion Griffin from Turner.  He is a senior this season for the Golden Bears and showed some very nice footwork and hands coming out the backfield.

As you can see from the film below he has some very good speed and the ability to cut on a dime.  Griffin is definitely going to be a player to watch this fall for Turner.
