Message: [QUOTE="BillSU, post: 4249053, member: 6809"] Continuing evaluations based on film, (talent), size, speed Josiah Brown 2024, 6'1"175 WR / DB / PR 55m = 6.38 = 4.27 40 Also runs the 100m, 200m & lead leg of the 4 x 100m sprints Holy Trinity, Hicksville, NY Offers as a sophomore: SU, ND, PST, PITT, RU, WVA, Is considered the #1 player in NYS in his cycle First, comments I read on his personality and scholastics. Has a 98 average and is a classic student/athlete, the kind FLJ is recruiting. JB: “I personally know that after I'm done with football,(HS), that I'm going to need a good academic scholarship, and I have to keep my grades up because without your grades you can't do anything. I personally enjoy studying, actually...Getting good grades is just fun to me. I enjoy getting good grades.” Brown is a skill position player who excels with the ball in his hands offensively – particularly at wide receiver – while he shows exciting potential in the defensive backfield and as a kick returner. Assets/Talent - based on playing him as a WR/P&KR Speed! As tomcat said, he is really fast, elite fast. As a comparison, Tyreek Hill/ND & Chiefs ran a 6.31 as a senior, JB ran a 6.67 this past summer and not even a year later this April ran a 6.38 as a sophomore and is still getting faster. Elusive, jig steps,jukes his way through difficult traffic, gets beyond the D and he's gone Very mature as a soph in his understanding of route running and following his blockers > Watched his film playing DB chasing a RB who had gotten beyond the LOS and was fast in his own right, had a 10 YD lead on JB at the 50, JB ran him down and tackled him on the 5YD line. amazing to watch< Hands, great ones, catches everything Has a tendency to hit high as a DB giving the ball carrier the advantage - in his film JB hits hard so the jolt carries the RB in the direction of the hit and JB drags him down. Personally I would play JB as a WR because of his speed creating lots of separation between the DB who is covering him and his ability to catch the ball. I think he would the fastest player we've ever had and look very, very good in Orange. [/QUOTE]
