Tucker in Terrell

Post by HarvCrimYaleBlue »

I like this kid. Not sure about that first name and he is tiny but seems to have good awareness - is always looking for a blocker. Underrated?

I would like for Morris to pick him up and develop him a bit. If we need an extra slippery guy he could do well I think. Not the blocker back type but seems to get to the edge and make guys miss. If Navy is his only suitor I think he could give us fits in a couple of years running that triple-o.

5'7'? I have tennis shoes taller than that.

if you can get 4.4 speed in someone 5'10 why would you go that short. I don't think this is happening.

I'm not 100% opposed to short running backs. Darren Sproles worked well at KSU

I love watching these things. Kid looks pretty quick. Also at the 2:15 mark if I was a SMU football recruiter, I would take a look at the kid that actually stayed with and caught him at the end even though Tucker scored the touch down. Didn't catch the number of the kid but for a linebacker/lineman he showed some speed.

His cuts are uncanny and he has great vision and he runs hard too. Fun to watch.

Tucker had 6 touchdowns against Woodrow Wilson in route to 49-13 win. Terrell faces Lovejoy in Area round on 11/21.
