Armanti Foreman, Texas City High School Wide Receiver - Chevy Spotlight

Texas City's Armanti Foreman was the first commit for the Oklahoma 2014 recruiting class, but the Wide Receiver had a change of heart and reopened his search for a collegiate home this spring. Basically all the schools that backed off of me because I was committed to Oklahoma really just came back again and tried to see if I was interested. Armanti originally thought he'd wait until after his senior year to make a decision, but over the summer decided to commit to the university Texas. He'll get to continue playing with his brother D'Onta who is a highly regarded prospect in his own right and also committed to UT. It's easy to see why Armanti is such a talent, he stands over 6 feet tall and runs a shade over a 4.4. Armanti is very explosive, he has the speed, he has great hands, he works extremely hard, he's a competitor on the field and wants the ball in his hands and wants to score. He gives that added dimension and somebody has to cover him on the edge out there if they leave him 1 on 1 he's very dangerous he's a deep threat it's fun to get the ball in his hands even running the ball he can give it to him on a reverse, put him in the backfield, throw it to him. As fun as it is to watch, Coach Surovik prefers a run based approach, which is hard to argue with considering the Stings should be a favorite in 4A in 2013. Armanti still managed 36 receptions for 959 yards and 9 touchdowns and also ran for 500 yards but he wouldn't mind being the focal point next season when he trades shades of orange. Of course I want the ball I'm a receiver, really like a spread offense or no a huddle offense or fast paced offense, but an athlete you have to make plays anyway and I feel that's what I do I make plays. For now Armanti is content to help anyway he can as there are big plans for his senior season. Anything less than going to state playing for a state championship is basically a failure.
