Scouting Report

Overview

About Brandin

Brandin Gallaway stands alone as the premier combo specialist in the 2027 recruiting class. The Clemson commit became the most recruited high school specialist of the last decade, finishing his recruitment with an astonishing 24 Division I offers. Programs across the country recognized what makes Gallaway so unique—he isn’t just an elite kicker or an elite punter, he’s one of the rare prospects capable of changing games in both roles. An Under Armour All-American as a punter, Gallaway enters his senior season after a tremendous junior campaign that showcased his versatility, highlighted by dominant kickoff film, consistent field goal production, and some of the best punting tape in America. With his recruitment behind him, all signs point toward another monster season before arriving at Clemson.

KT Evaluation

Evaluated Jul 24, 2026

At 6-foot-4, Brandin Gallaway possesses the prototype frame every college special teams coordinator looks for in a combo specialist. His size, athleticism, and natural leverage allow him to generate effortless power whether he’s kicking field goals, driving kickoffs, or punting. Gallaway’s versatility is what separates him from every other prospect in the country. As a kicker, he consistently produces explosive kickoffs with outstanding hang time and the leg strength to challenge for touchbacks on every rep. His field goal mechanics are smooth, repeatable, and continue to improve, giving him legitimate long-range potential as he continues to mature physically. As impressive as he is kicking, Gallaway may be even better as a punter. He consistently drives the football with excellent distance and hang time while showing the ability to control field position. His operation is clean, his contact is consistently pure, and his physical tools allow him to produce college-ready punts right now. Simply put, there isn’t another specialist in this class who offers the same combination of kicking ability, punting talent, athletic upside, and positional value. KT Recruiting Evaluation Brandin Gallaway is the clear No. 1 combo specialist in America and one of the most complete special teams prospects we’ve evaluated in years. Earning 24 Division I offers—more than any high school specialist over the past decade—speaks volumes about how college coaches view his value. We expect another dominant senior season, highlighted by monster kickoffs, continued development as a field goal kicker, and the opportunity to showcase his long-range ability in game situations. As a punter, he’s already among the most college-ready players in the country. Don’t be surprised if Gallaway competes for Clemson’s starting job the moment he steps on campus. His ability to contribute in multiple phases of the kicking game gives him a chance to make an immediate impact, and we believe he has the talent to develop into one of the premier specialists in college football.
