6-7 OT Trevyon Green re-classifying into ’22 – 247Sports

Trevyon Green picked up several offers in the summer and made winter visits to West Virginia and North Carolina, but his recruitment is taking a major turn that will allow more schools to become involved.

The 6-foot-7, 389-pound offensive tackle from Colonial Heights (Va.) Life Christian is re-classifying into the 2022 class. The decision was finalized during a Tuesday meeting, he said, and he is eager to make the most out of the extra year.

I want to have more options with offers but mostly it is to lose more weight before I go to college, Green said. That was probably my biggest problem before, but being in 22, I will have more time to work and have more options, and more time to think about where I want to go.

The movewill position Green to graduate in December and enroll at a college in January.

North Carolina, West Virginia, Virginia Tech, Pittsburgh, Liberty, Maryland and William & Mary extended offers to Green last winter,in the spring or in the summer but Green needs to let them know about his decision.

I just finished a meeting about it today so I havent had a chance to talk to any schools about it, Green said. I will be doing so shortly.

Academics were not the issue in Greens decision.

He said getting in better shape so he can showcase his skills is the impetus behind the move. He added he was also hearing from college coaches that a move to the class would help in their evaluations of him.

My coach told me they want me in the class of 2022 because they want me to show them I can move at the weight I have, Green said. My academics are good. That is not why (Green is re-classifying).

Greens goal is to trim 25 to 30 pounds, which should help his agility.

My goal is around 360, Green said. Ive been losing weight. I know some schools were saying they couldnt accept me because of my weight, so that was a big thing.

Green was on the radar of schools last winter and he picked up his first Power 5 offer when Virginia Tech extended one Feb. 10, 2019.

Liberty, Pittsburgh and the former staff at Rutgers extended offers in April and West Virginia moved into the mix with a mid June. North Carolina offered in late July.

During his visit to West Virginia just prior to the February dead period, Green spent time with the coaching staff and felt comfortable on campus. He also had a conversation with Mountaineers coach Neal Brown.

"I had fun and talked to a lot of the coaches," he said after the trip. "Coach Brown said he liked my footwork, my aggression, and my personality."
