How many times is Emery run down from behind?
There has been a fairly consistent set of posters who insist he doesn't have elite speed and it blows my mind. There are times where guys gain on him as he approaches the goal line, but it's because he blows past them and then lets up towards the end to conserve energy. Could be a habit to break playing in the SEC, but it's not for a lack of speed. Dude's fast and he gets up to speed in a very short distance.

John has been on my cruise ship this week. (I know cruises are trashy). I was able to meet him and visit with his mom and grandmother as well. They seem like good folks and they spoke highly of the coaching staff. Seems like a good humble kid. Can’t wait to see him play. He signed an autograph for my son who is going to crap his pants when I give it to him. (I know, cool story bro).

He didn’t look as explosive as a senior compared to his earlier years because he gained some weight. He’s listed around 205 on recruiting sites but I can tell you he played closer to 220. He’s a thick kid in his lower body and was adjusting to his new weight. He’ll play around 215 in college and be a homerun threat for 3-4 years for us. He’s absolutely the real deal.
