He was teammates with OU lineman Tramonda Moore in high school and proved to be a huge recruiting force after his commitment. His physicality was an attribute often talked about in high school.

Highlights
2018 Season
Broiles is going to play a lot during his time at Oklahoma: it’s just a matter of when and potentially where. He was recruited as either a corner or safety. Recently, he’s been battling for the free safety spot with Robert Barnes. TFB has heard that his hard work and fearlessness are really setting him apart. If the battle continues the way it has been, Broiles may find himself the starter for the season opener.
