What a name. Any Baylor fans with opinions on his ability?
Not a lot of film to watch. RS Sophomore surprise early entry. Big frame at 6-4 and 215 lbs with long arms. Looks like he has very good hands and great athleticism. Not a body catcher (though I think that's overblown as a negative).
Baylor site says he runs sub 4.5, broad jump is 11ft, vert is 39 inches, and 3-cone is 6.58. If true, that would put him in the top 3 athletically among WRs in the last draft. Texas HS state champion in 110m hurdle and silver in 300m.
BUT...
Let's say he likes to conserve his energy. Most snaps where he knows he's not the target, he doesn't even bother running two yards. I've never seen a WR not bother to run routes. I kind of understand it given Baylor is a 1-read offense and the ball is out very fast, but he's the only guy I see do that. There's HS video where he doesn't do this though.
Also, there's a video of him losing it and whipping his dog with a belt several times. Suspended for 3 games.
