Wait, so a LB recruit is technically faster than a former ISU punt/kick returner?
Holy **** balls
Holy **** balls
I'm a bit amazed when a track record at a school stands for 20+ years with all the changes in fitness, training and nutrition.
But guess to show on a micro/school level, being a freak athlete is a big differentiator.
As long as this thread was resurrected, I’ll say something that I’ve commented on elsewhere.
This kid is big, he can run, and he hits like a Mack truck.
In my considered opinion—and I’ve been doing this a long time—the best linebacker recruit at ISU since a guy named Blair.
Who, for that matter, didn’t actually play linebacker as a Cyclone.
With the depth in the room, special teams as a frosh.

10.86 for a WR is fast. It's flying for a LB.
Gonna be fun seeing him "fly" into the utah, arizona, BYU Texas Tech backfields, cutting down RBs trying to turn the corner!!
There was a state record that last 35 years and another that was around 30. Sometimes a kid comes through that just has it.
