His 40 time in pads would be close to his 40 without, no shite.

I like him as an all purpose back or just a slot receiver, who is utilized like Quinn on end arounds and sweeps. If we lose Brossette (hopefully we don't) take him as APB. I think since we only have one WR in this class, it might be best to take him as a slot receiver.

If he doesn't come here, I hope he goes to Arizona St, Oregon, or WVU. I like how they utilize their RBs in the receiving game, as much as in the running game.

Right now, our backs have a good chunk of the receptions. Some that has to do with QB taking what's underneath, some because of QB inexperience, some because play calling, and some because of lack of TE play.

The offense should be truly dynamic next year though.

No question about that! This kid has already spent years in the weight room, worked hard and paid the price, and is built solid! Those types tend to have their track speed carry over to their game speed due to their strength and compact build. I watched him run just under 10.7 FAT in the 100m at the state track meet. I have not seen him play football and am curious as to how his athleticism carries over to the gridiron, but he is an elite athlete for sure!
