Terry Bussey's frame, playmaking ability and high-end athleticism remind us of Trent McDuffie, particularly if Bussey ends up on defense long-term. McDuffie was more of a pure defensive back at the same stage, while Bussey is a prolific quarterback at the high school level.

Terry Bussey Scouting Summary
Cody Bellaire
04/19/23

Do-it-all athlete who is arguably the best high school football player in the state of Texas. Measured a shade over 5-foot-10 and around 180 pounds prior to his senior season. A top athlete, both in the combine setting and on the track. One of the fastest prospects in the 2024 cycle. Ran a personal best of 10.66 seconds in the 100 meters as a sophomore, finishing 3rd in the state meet. Posted strong marks in the long jump (23-4.75 feet and triple jump (45-11 feet) as a junior. Lines up at quarterback and defensive back for Timpson. Has eviscerated the level of competition dating back to his freshman season. Boasts a rare combination of top-tier explosiveness and fluidity. Gashes defenses with his legs. Shows range while working as a defensive back, both as a safety and corner. Does a nice job staying in phase in man coverage. Physical defender and is willing to stick his face into traffic. Shows the ability to track the ball as a receiver. A dominant player on Friday nights with elite production. Finished his junior season with 4,773 yards and 72 touchdowns from scrimmage en route to being named Mr. Texas Football. Also picked off five passes, returning four for touchdowns. A four-sport athlete with a sterling multi-sport profile. Averaged 19.6 points per game in basketball and has the ability to throw down dunks at 5-foot-10. Has genuine positional ambiguity at the next level, with his highest upside appearing to be as a defensive back given his natural athleticism and playmaking ability. Is not overly refined as a receiver and would need time to develop as a route-runner. May lack some size, but is an elite athlete with an undeniable body of work as a high school player.

Personal Life

Sometimes Timpson (Texas) High School coach Kerry Therwhanger just shakes his head when watching his star Terry Bussey play on Friday nights. As a quarterback, Bussey threw for 2,177 yards and 26 touchdowns, completing 64% of his passes in 2022. Bussey also rushed for 2,596 yards and 46 touchdowns, averaging a staggering 14.1 yards per carry. Defensively, he tallied 115 tackles and five interceptions, returning four of them for touchdowns. “It helps when you have an athlete like we’ve got,” Therwhanger told Dave Campbell’s Texas Football. “He makes plays that you don’t necessarily draw up. You call the play, and he has his mind right, and he just takes over.” Bussey said he isn’t sure what position he will play in college. “I’ll just play any position that coach needs me to play,” he told DCTF. “Playing on both sides of the ball helps me get ready for college. It builds my conditioning, makes me stay focused and see the game from different perspectives.”
