Texas Freak Show
Who might Texas' freaks be? A few come to mind:
Malik "Predator"
Jefferson, perhaps the most impressive athlete in ALL of college football. That is not hyperbole. This young man comes with an amazing nickname as well, for good reason. Malik's athleticism places him outside of most, if not all, of his contemporaries. He’s 6'3"/240 lbs., runs a 4.38 40 yard dash (!!!), 4.19 shuttle, and a 40 inch vertical (!!!). THAT is incredible!
Collin Johnson, another absolute freak and a Texas legacy. Standing at 6'5", weighing a little bit north of 200 lbs., Johnson is fast and explosive, "Young Megatron" can literally perform standing back flips! He likely runs in the 4.5/40 range. If and when Collin develops his release and route separation skills, there'll be no stopping him.
Devin Duvernay will immediately become one of the fastest players in college football as he is a 10.2 100-meter and a legitimate 4.3 40-yard dash sprinter. This young man simply runs faster than anyone else and he's also a dynamic football player who can slow himself down and utilize change of pace to fool would-be tacklers' angles.
Kent Perkins, if you’ve seen his blocking, particularly in the run game, it’s easy to tell he possesses extreme strength. No matter the position in 2016, expect Kent to mash. If the staff can solidify the right tackle position with a freshman, don’t be surprised if Kent becomes one of the best guards in college football.
Patrick Hudson could deadlift and squat well over 600 lbs., as a senior in high school! FREAK is definitely an appropriate term for Patrick; and on top of that, the big guy's got sweet feet, very nimble for such a large young man.
Brandon Jones could excel at any defensive back position and is the most talented safety prospect since Earl Thomas to arrive on the 40 Acres. Great person, great football player, and can flat-out fly, as he is a 4.3/40 runner himself and a tackling machine.
