Official JUCO WR Offer - Colbie Young: COMMITS!

[Jassid82]

Yeah he’s a lot bigger then I thought. He’s all of 6’5.

 

[786Cane]

Yep. Look at how much our offense changed last year as we went from King to TVD at QB. Adjust to your personnel, play to their strengths.

Pause bro PLEASE

 

[dolpterry]

Heard there was a player checking out his dorm room so good chance this may be the player.

 

[Odysseus]

Sounds like he's in

 

[FrancisSawyer]

all this bull****tn,
it doesnt matter how many **** times Gattis passes the ball or runs the ball, the only stat that matters is points on the board!

Just Win Baby

Limiting factor was some of his stuff didn’t fit there personnel at wr more than the qb situation. They had

 

[HurikaneMarc]

First and foremost, he does what you want your 6’4” receiver to do: out jump the corner for the jump ball and catch with his hands. This is definitely a shot across Ladson’s bow. The staff definitely feels we still need that big body red zone threat. I’m curious how he runs. Most tall guys don’t have short area quickness but you want a guy who’s fast enough to get separation. Otherwise you’re just signing another Darrel Langham.

I agree. He was so successful manhandling little cb's that just throwing it up to him became a play. He not only plays tall he plays big. I'd keep him under 220lbs. If he can run about 4.5 or 6 he's going to be matchup problem.

Miami is very interested

He cancelled Tennessee this weekend to OV at Miami

Wait, Heupel was recruiting Young? You can debate whether or not Heupel will be a good HC, but he knows offense and offensive players so if he's recruiting him, there's significant potential here as a WR.

Gaby said he could be back soon to enroll join the team

6’4” and catches with his hands. Not much else to him, not much else needed. He isn’t The Answer but he can solve a question or two.

How do we know that? Highlights show a QB with questionable (at best) arm strength and Young has to stop and outjump the CB for almost every catch. Hearing some rumblings that he's a lot faster than the times being thrown around this thread.

 

[Rickd]

Another weapon for TVD to use to keep those chains moving ... and to get it done in the red zone. 6'4" and can jump ... and catch with his hands. Nice combination.

 

[Bender]

He will be Ladsons backup at the very minimum and thats what we should expect for now.

His ability to locate and catch the ball in tight coverage is much more important than his speed imo. We need someone who can make plays consistently. I'm not sure if it's gonna be this guy but he has great hops and hands. Like some of those big WR Clemson had going back years

 

[CaneFanWNY]

This dude is a giant, hope it translates over to P5, because woo boy...made some incredible high point catches in his highlights on numerous under throws.

Agreed. Iron sharpens iron. Ladson needs competition to light fire under his ***. These guys need to be pushed. May the best guy win.

 

[WeBallinBoyz]

Let's go, could be a nice pickup but at worst he's solid depth.

But what if he not only has hops and good hands but also much better speed than everyone here thinks? All of sudden, the tone in this thread changes and its not 10 pages but over the dreaded 50 page marker. Good thing we didn't have to worry about the 50 page jinx for Young.
