Shockwave at Jackson State: Deion Sanders Faces Unexpected Setback as Star RB’s Transfer Decision Surprises Fans
Out of high school, Augustave was a four-star recruit, according to 247Sports. He was the #226 player in the 2023 recruiting class, the #13 RB and the #45 player in the state of Florida. Augustave attended Naples High School in Naples, FL. Here is what his high school scouting report looked like:
“Tall with slightly plus length. Lean, athletic build with good muscle mass and frame space to continue adding bulk. Requisite multi-sport profile with encouraging track data,” the scouting report stated. “Strong verifieds in combine testing and on the track that reflect in functional burst and long speed. Flashes top end to hit the long ball. Averaged 8.7 ypc as a junior to further reflect big-play juice. Best when hitting north-south alleys or bursting out of one-cut opportunities. Enough wiggle to make first man miss in the hole, or elude an open-field tackler in space. Above average contact balance, but upright gait and height create higher center of gravity. Gets bounce-happy. Comes from an old-school, run-heavy offense and will need pass-catching development. Sometimes plays at one speed. Very intriguing running back prospect with promising size / speed combination that suggests high developmental ceiling. Projects as a Power Five multi-year starter with tools to play beyond college.”
