Quick interview with Jenks HS WR/CB Dillon Stoner
As do everything athlete Dillon Stoner prepares for a senior season to remember, we caught up with the Jenks High School star to do an in-depth interview covering his life on the field. The 6’0”, 180 pound, speedy wide receiver, punt returner, and cornerback gave us a behind the scenes look at his offseason program, recruiting, and preparing for a four-peat with the Trojans, but we wanted to know more.
In an ongoing Recruiting News Guru Question & Answer session we prodded the Class of 2016 rising star with seven scholarship offers (Arkansas, Arkansas State, Kansas, North Texas, Rice, Washington State, and Wyoming) about his off the field interests to get a better sense of the guy under the shoulder pads.
