Lol i see why he don’t wanna tackle jit look like a middle schooler
if he's not eager to tackle HS RB's, I doubt that will change when he see's kids like Damien Martinez running at him...They already use him at WR occasionally.
I just rewatched our [heartbreaking] Columbus playoff game...(we were up 13-3 going into the 4th quarter)
And although Fitzgerald had like 39 interceptions that game, he wasn't exactly eager to get involved in the run defense. He looks very comfortable letting the other 10 guys handle it.
OL are run blocking and he's still dropping to the deep middle of the field. His feet aren't active and eager to get downhill, he's just drifting around with no urgency.
Now...
If the ball's in the air down the field, he'll go get that MF'er. He reminds me of Harlem Howard, the kid I had at Deerfield who led the state in interceptions and is currently at Oregon State. And his position coach told me that THE ONLY THING stopping him from being on the field right now is his willingness/eagerness to show up in the run game.
I say Fitz is a take and you figure it out when he gets on campus.
You're not wrong...if he's not eager to tackle HS RB's, I doubt that will change when he see's kids like Damien Martinez running at him...
add to it there isnt ANY big backs in dade sooooo...if he's not eager to tackle HS RB's, I doubt that will change when he see's kids like Damien Martinez running at him...
We want this jit or what
I can’t keep up lol
Sorry, but I can't get on board with football players that don't want to tackle. Big red flag for me. It's a physical game.....so go ****** tackle somebody!!!
If he committed, I wouldn't be upset at all. Proceed with caution I guess. I played with dudes that didn't want to play physical and it was infuriating. PausePeople are going to hate me for it. But that's how I felt about James Williams. Yet I still wanted him. You can't pass on talent. And this kid has talent. Hopefully the competition and peer pressure at the next level pushes him to get there. It only happened with JW in his final year here IMO, and he still wanted to freelance in the secondary way more than playing close to the line.
This. And corners have to tackle also. If you play defense, you will eventually have to tackle somebody. Easy pass.Sorry, but I can't get on board with football players that don't want to tackle. Big red flag for me. It's a physical game.....so go ****** tackle somebody!!!
When I was at Deerfield I used the Columbus versus Western tape to scout the Explorers before our playoff game with them...People are going to hate me for it. But that's how I felt about James Williams. Yet I still wanted him. You can't pass on talent. And this kid has talent.

Unfortunately yesWith the Amari Wallace news…he might be back on the radar now.
Noles thinks he's trolling
Says fsu and LSU are separating from the pack. Still likes Miami. Will be at the game on 8/31. Making a decision this month but will still keep options open.
