Three-Star EDGE Prospect with Elite TFL Intensity and Multi-Sport Power
James Tilus, a 6-3, 225-pound three-star EDGE prospect from Auburndale, Fla., committed to UConn on 6/23/2025, stands out for his ferocious 2024 junior season: 54 tackles, 20 TFLs, and 9 sacks in just 10 games[3]. His differentiators include elite multi-sport power (19-6 long jump) and a 3-star intensity level that makes him a high-fit EDGE for UConn’s defensive front[3][4]. No injury history reported; his personality is driven and team-first, as seen in his 'Go Huskies' commitment[5]. You should care because he’s a stat leader in TFLs with a scout grade of 74, offering rare intensity for a high school EDGE[2][3].
