I searched for skill info and about all I found was an old post about Donte an Dillon. It mentioned something about Skylar Greene as a comparison, but not much else. What type of player? How would we use him compared to our philosophy? How does he make a difference against Ark, Bama, A&M ect, and the arms race? Any news would be appreciated because the guy is hyped and sounds special!

He's legit top 3 DB in this class and will probably be our returned next year

Wait till you see how fast he is in person and his closing speed, then you will surely understand.

He could make an impact in many ways, but he's a shutdown corner much like Tre' White. He's electric in the return game or really anytime he has the ball as well. I have been saying for a while that he's legit top 3 cb in this class.

Hate to say it but you got to be honest when it comes to recent "VooDoo". Yep...I really admire Speedy's elusiveness. any comparison (speaking of voodoo)

Returner, speed sweeps and a number of places where speed kills.

We did well on the sweeps towards the end of the year, one of the bright additions to the offense

With that speed, any chance he sees any PT on Offense?

I'm not sure if we have anyone on O with this skill set. So I would hope they put him in the slot - I can see great ability for bubble/ WR screens and such.

Well I mean I'm sure they will put some thought to it, but how often does a player play both?

I'd be fine with just D and STs

Yes, he has been quoted as saying Cam has talked to him about putting in packages for him on offense. He is electric and needs to touch the ball every single game.

The goal is Derrick Dillon to compete for that role on offense. It sounds like Chark is a strong contender along with Dural still being involved in it.
