Luckily for you, he will just be running back punts and kick-offs. But you have to admit, his high school moves are pretty darn impressive, I can’t remember ever seeing a high schooler with this much talent. I can’t wait to see him play next season.

I’m speechless. Poor kid could have had a decent college career.

Education is more important to him than being a fuzzy nut I guess :p I don’t see him being a career baller unless he grows a bit yet, but his stats are nuts:
6′-10″
190 lbs.
45″ vertical
355 lbs. max bench press
4.3s 40
and he hurdled OSUs freshman choice Shugart on film, actually he flipped over him.
When he is in the open field, it is over with, it will be impossible to catch him. Watching his moves in high school reminds me of players like Walter Payton and Barry Sanders. Remember how Sanders would look like he wasn’t going anywhere, then all of a sudden he is half way down the field going for the TD, that is what I seen in that highlight film. He will definitely be fun to watch.

Wow – that was some of the most exciting running I have ever seen. He reminds me of Barry Sanders + more speed + more jumping over defenders.
Richard – Don’t know if you are joking – he is not 6’10″, I have seen 5’11.5″.

HAHA! That was a typo. I mean 6′-0″
If he was 6′-10″ tall, football would be the wrong sport :p
