Rankings: Rivals 3* (state 23), ESPN 3* (rated a 76, position 50, regional 138, 29 state), Scout 3* (position 46), 247 Sports 3* (position 170, state 40). Selected Boston College over Connecticut and Temple. Recruited by Bill McGovern.
Strengths: At 6-5, 220, Crimmins is already a pretty big target who played on both the offensive and defensive sides of the ball in high school. He had an outstanding senior season, catching 55 balls for 1,249 yards and 18 touchdowns as a wide receiver. At BC, Crimmins will likely transition to tight end.
Realistic Outlook: Where Giacone served as more of a blocking TE at St. Peter's Prep, Crimmins is more of a true wide receiver that will be converted to TE. He's a big target that appears tough to take down and could excel in Doug Martin's offense. Both Giacone and Crimmins' games seem to complement one another and the future at TE seems bright for BC.
