Third Offer in for Incoming St. Frances Cornerback Tyrin Woodby

Maryland becomes the third verbal offer for the new Panthers cornerback.

Rising junior Tyrin Woodby added his third offer on Saturday when the Terps anted up. Woodby, fresh off his decision to transfer from Bowie (MD) to St. Frances (MD), already held offers from Boston College and Sacred Heart before outside linebacker coach Brawley Evans came across his tape.

“Coach Brawley saw a video of me on Twitter that coach Winters posted. Brawley hit him up and said who is this guy, Winters said he catches, plays DB and returns kicks so Brawley offered new,” Woodby told All Terrapins. “I talked to coach Brawley on [Saturday]. He likes my film a lot, likes that I can play both sides of the ball. I look natural and I look like I can run.”

As for his junior season, Woodby admitted the clear benefits outweigh the rest for an incoming transfer as he transitions into a loaded St. Frances defense. “Powerhouse school, better looks to get to college, just a better fit for me overall. Coach Winters, that’s like my mentor, my DB coach so we have a great relationship off the field too. We’ve been working on a lot of different things on grass and turf field, so just grinding all season.”

Woodby lined at wide receiver, cornerback along with both kick and punt return for Bowie a season ago but likely lines up in the secondary for the Panthers. Whether St. Frances does play a fall season, Woodby knows what he wants to show the critics.

“I just want to show people I can be a player. Put me back there and I can make plays. I just look at myself as an all-around lockdown corner. Long, rangy, I can get my hands on guys, can cover slot guys, wideouts. Just an all-around guy.”
