Kirby Jackson Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 I put it in the Chubba thread but wanted to break it out. I saw him as a freshman or sophomore and thought he was the best HS athlete that I had ever seen. In fact, I wrote that on here about 5 or 6 years ago. He’s not eligible this year but will be a fun player to track for those of you looking for a guy to watch in 2020. He will be a star IMO and I don’t care that he weighs 170 lbs. I’m on record that I will be banging the table for this guy to be on the Bills in 16 months. At any rate, enjoy some highlights from HS and his freshman year. Start salivating now!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You mean a college star with a mediocre pro carrer, especially considering Bush's athleticism and talent. Because Sproles was better as pro than Bush Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m talking about a guy that’s different. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He just EXPLODES through the hole and in the open field. He only weighs 170 lbs. I just haven’t ever seen anyone like him. I may end up being wrong but I’m not changing my mind. The 1st time I saw him play my mind was made up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coach Tuesday Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 I’m good with it but only if we get to call him Ant Man. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He really does!! My cousin used to get high with that guy in Ft. Meyers. IMO, he’s much better on his feet than Divine but similar explosion. You used to be able to blow on Noel Divine and he went down. Pooka runs through tackles believe it or not. I guess time will tell. I saw some early projections that have him coming out and going late 1st early 2nd. I may be wrong but I’m not changing my mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is going to be a huge exodus of playmakers from college football in this draft so people who produce may get pushed up the board in 2021-2022. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CajunBillsBacker Posted January 8, 2020 Share Posted January 8, 2020 Man I was hoping LSU would get him, so much so that I almost showed up at his commitment announcement wearing LSU gear, but LSU didn’t really seem interested until late. I did watch a lot of him at Hahnville, but Almost completely forgot about him at Kansas. Looks like he’s been tearing it up there though.

Mr. WEO Posted January 9, 2020 Share Posted January 9, 2020 He's the fastest guy on a filed full of guys who aren't that fast. Maybe he could make some money as a kick returner in the NFL. Likely will need that running start. Sproles is solid ball of muscle. Could take a hit. This kid looks like he hasn't been hit much---pretty scrawny. Fun to watch though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ghostwriter Posted January 23, 2020 Share Posted January 23, 2020 He looks pretty squishy. Very quick and elusive but not overly fast. I don’t think he’ll make for a good pro. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think on offense definitely. After a run of drafts where I think defense has been deeper this year is significantly deeper on offense I think.
