Hope this doesn't sound rude but unless a top portal guy is visiting, has a Fran connection, or a thread already... probably not worth making one tbh.

THE IMPORTANCE OF THE 40 YARD DASH

It is primarily run to evaluate the speed and acceleration of American football players by coaches and scouts particularly for the NFL Draft but also for collegiate recruiting. A player's recorded time for every position can have a heavy impact on his prospects in college or professional football.

GOOD = 5.0 - 5.99

FAST = 4.9 - 4.99

FAST= 4.8 - 4.89

FAST= 4.7 - 4.79

FAST= 4.6 - 4.69

FAST= 4.5 - 4.59

VERY FAST= 4.4 - 4.49

>ELITE = 4.0 - 4.39 <

BO JACKSON FASTEST RECORDED ALL TIME 4.13, 1986 AUBURN INDOORS

A seasoned cornerback with quick feet, loose hips and strong instincts. Makes it extremely difficult for wide receivers to shake him as he embraces hand-to-hand combat and understands how to put himself in position to make plays at the catch point. Has experience lining up on the outside, but competitive nature and compact frame suggests that his future is likely on the inside as he will fight through blockers to make a tackle in run support. Has also proven to be rather effective on the blitz. Made a difference on both sides of the ball as a senior in high school, but was lightly recruited. Ended up quickly emerging as an impact player for one of the nation’s top junior college programs. Described by his coaches and those around him as a hard worker and the type of prospect that wants to get better every day. Will need to adjust to the speed of FBS football, but should challenge for playing time right away and eventually emerge as a starter in a Power 5 conference.

H.S. Athletic Background​

Ran track in high school. Clocked a personal-best 10.94 (converted) in the 100-meter dash as a junior. Also took first in the long jump going 23-4 at the USATF Nevada Association Junior Olympics in 2019.
2020/2021: Key player for a Snow College team that went 8-1 and made NJCAA National Championship Game. Picked off three passes and broke up 10 more. Also credited with 5.5 tackles for loss. Earned NJCAA All-American first-team honors as a DB.
2019: Two-way player as a high school senior at La Mesa (Calif.) Helix High. Totaled four interceptions in 12 games. Also caught 36 passes for 563 yards and 10 touchdowns. Helped the Highlanders reach the title game in the CIF San Diego Section playoffs. All-East County first-team selection on offense as a WR.
2018: Played junior high school season at Democracy Prep in Las Vegas.

A huge piece of Auburn's 2024 defense is expected to transfer out.

Starting defensive back Keionte Scott plans to enter the portal, Auburn Undercover has been informed, delivering a huge blow to an Auburn secondary already short on experience and production heading into next season.

Auburn Undercover is told the coaching staff is still attempting to persuade Scott to return.


Having just announced he would be returning to Auburn last month in favor of the NFL draft, Scott started at nickel the past two seasons, and was set to be the team's top returning tackler over the last two years.

Despite missing three games due to an early season ankle injury, Scott played some of the best football of his career late this season, finishing with 41 tackles, two tackles for loss and four pass breakups.

Against Arkansas, Scott housed a 74-yard punt for Auburn's first touchdown on a punt return since the 2014 season.

With D.J. James and Nehemiah Pritchett off to the NFL, Scott was set to move from nickel to outside cornerback next season. He started at that spot across from Kayin Lee in Auburn's bowl loss to Maryland.


The Tigers had some staff changes in the secondary of late, with Freeze bringing in Colorado defensive coordinator Charles Kelly. Cornerbacks coach Wesley McGriff moved to an off-the-field role midway through the season, and left for a job on Mike Elko's staff at Texas A&M late last month.

WOULD BE ANOTHER GREAT GET!

I will say this. Fran and staff have been absolute ninjas in targeting and pulling in guys. To me anyone is a target at this point until said target commits elsewhere. I will also say. One way to entice high end Corners is to before that bring in high end dline, oline and offense skill guys. Let's see what happens!

No crystall ball right now, recruitment seems to be hush hush. Rumors on X indicate that Miami is the front runner.

Would love it if we got involved here. Looking at the top 10 available Corners right now, who we getting?

Chris Peal is a Georgia kid. Seems like an option. Fran seems to be good recruiting Florida kids so #1 on the list would be nice. Have no idea what Chasen's parents were thinking...
