Fair Park's Morris Claiborne was the outstanding track man, recording a 10.3 in the 100-meter dash, though he was aided by the wind. He won the 200 in 22.06, despite running into a headwind and anchored the winning Indians 4x100-meter relay squad


I look forward to seeing this young man in purple and gold.

If posting this here offends the "once he's signed, he is no longer a recruit" guys, I apologize.
I'm a "if he's still in high school, we'll post info on him on the recruiting board not the Rant" guy.

Could he be our first true "Percy Harvin" type of player? He's got the exact same size and speed is obviously there.

If not, then Russell Sheppard could be. Having said that, I'm excited to see MC in P&G as well.

I just cut and pasted it from the article.
I don't think anyone runs the 100 yard dash any omre.
It does say it was wind aided.

Yeah it could def change your time by a couple tenths if the wind is strong.

That was one of the greatest and most underrated video game of all time.

Also 10.3 and 10.03 is a huge difference. Little rantastic on the Percy Harvin comparisons. Having wind on your back definitely cuts your time down if it is strong enough.

Either way I think MC will be a stud CB in a couple of years.

"Claiborne got the baton on the last leg with his Indians squad tied for third, some six meters behind the leader. He quickly pulled even and had a commanding two-meter lead when he broke the tape."

wait till Moffitt gets a hold of him.
