Andre Phillip II: 1,000 Yards, 12 TDs, and a West Virginia Scholarship

Seven touchdowns in a single game. That kind of performance tends to follow a player, and for Andre Phillip II, it was just one chapter in a season that lasted fewer than four games.

The dual-threat quarterback turned in one of the more eye-catching stat lines in the Houston area last fall, totaling 1,000 yards of offense and 12 touchdowns despite playing just three and a half games. His combination of size, speed, and a big arm made him one of the most dangerous quarterbacks in the region when healthy.

An ACL tear brought his senior season to an early end, a difficult blow for any player in his final year of high school football. But the tape and the numbers had already made the case. West Virginia extended a scholarship offer, and Phillip II accepted, giving him a path to play at the Power Four level.

The injury is a setback, but the body of work — compressed as it was — spoke clearly enough for college coaches to take notice.
