TD to Nykeim in the UNC game was maybe my favorite play last season.

If he's healthy he'll feast on deep posts and crosses along with Riley

 

[Orangezoo]

If the ends get home more often than not, it is going to be really difficult for teams to throw on us.

 

[Trueblue25]

Big news.

Nykeim has a redshirt available I believe. Possible usage if he’s not 100%?

I give that a solid 0% chance of happening

 

[OttoinGrotto]

Yeah, my guess is he'd need to be really injured badly for a redshirt to be on the table.

 

[care taker]

nykiem is good to go

 

[PhatOrange]

Not necessarily since Courtney Jackson has arrived. Him and Lutz could spell Nykiem some time to heal if not redshirt.

If he's not 100% for the first game he'll redshirt the entire season?
I don't think so.

 

[Cusefan69]

If Nykeim is healthy, watch out. The guy is so quick twitch he even fakes himself out from time to time. I could definitely see him having a big season if healthy and if our oline holds up. He is the guy that turns the quick slant into a 72 yard td.

How do you fake yourself out?

 

[Cusefan69]

How do you fake yourself out?

The mind works faster than the body sometimes and what works out perfectly in your head does not 100% on the field always work out. Your toe clips your other foot or you don't weight shift enough on the first part of the move and it impacts the second part of your move maybe resulting in your feet getting tied up. One time Nykeim.. don't recall against who did this triple move...looked great the first two steps and then he tripped. Anyway that's about the best I can explain it.

Presume the non contact jersey is just precautionary at this point which may be telling about the staffs expectations for him this year. Keep him in bubble wrap and make sure he's 100% for the opener... He and Riley are going to dice up that safety pairing.
