Notes:
"He has unbelievable speed, great cover skills and great footwork. There is upside with him because [Tookes' junior] year was his first full year playing cornerback. He was a wide receiver, but [in the spring of 2010] we decided to move him to do something different. He showed something right away." - Creekside head coach Johnny White
CC's Scouting Report: Though he's not as highly-regarded as fellow cornerback recruit Donaldven Manning, I like Tookes just as much long-term. He has really only played cornerback for a year, and he still shows good footwork and coverage ability despite his lack of experience. He also has excellent speed. Tech was the first school to offer, and he committed right away. Since then, Tennessee, South Carolina, Nebraska and others have offered.
