If Coley and company feel like they can exploit a corner on deep route with his speed then they will send him deep. Fully expect him to run crossing routes and slants. Will be very effective on play action in my opinion. He will be a fun toy for the staff to use to exploit miss matches.
I'm planning on waking up to the sweet sound of a Wren singing on my In Box.
@MIghtydawg that math isnt right. In the time a 4.30 guy can run 40 yards, a 4.40 guy can run 39.1. A different of over 2 feet. Sorry to do math on here.
This guy is not going to Oregon.
Wren is super fast and our coaches want him. That’s all I need to hear. Count me as excited. I hope he commits to the good guys!!
No need for apologies. Certainly don't want to be giving a North Ave Nerd any ammo.
Nice spot. Would be a nice pairing with Cine
OK. I'm confident that one of the 4 of you is correct in your 40 times math calculation..
However, I'm not confident about which one it is
Don't mean to put you on blast but it needs to be said to others out there who may be doubting. And you can't compare Wren over Flowe or Sewell because it's not the same position group. They both may very well have extremely successful careers but both of them together don't benefit this roster overall as much as having a potential year 1 returner. The best part is we can risk it on Wren because we have Kearis & Blalock who will be ready to roll but neither have Wren's big play potential, we are talking elite, get to top speed in 2 steps, type of speed.
@bigdawg65 Already beat me to it but the staff's history on 3*s is pretty impressive so far. Just going down @Denmen185's list think about major contributors JUST this year:
Herrien: IDK about you but I like to know I have Herrien ready to run every play in the book rather than depend on a freshman to come in and perfect his pass pro assignment against bama in the 4th Q against their latest 1st round pass rusher..
Stokes: We are literally sitting around acting like this dude is just a plug and play, not significant drop off, type talent/production as the former Thorpe award winner, who was also a 3*.. All Stokes did was produce HAVOC last year. That's all Kirby is preaching now!
Kindley: Graded out as our top OL on PFF. If he builds off of next year he may have the type of year I thought Galliard would have in '18. If he stays healthy he's a safe day two draft pick.
Rice: He was considered a 3* for the longest time until late in the process when we beat out LSU for him and I think Auburn got in late. He very well could be like any of LSU's latest ILB they've put into the league. That staff knew what they wanted and barley missed him.
Reed: We thought he may not come back for his 5th year. This dudes is just improving draft status at this point and would we rather hope a freshman or sophomore panned out by now? Glad I got a 5th year guy on the back end of the defense.
Look that's just 5. Go down denmen's list: Tae Crowder, David Marshall, Tyler Simmons, Tyrique McGhee will all have significant PT and if Landers can finish the drill he could be that dude. Every elite team is taking 3-5 of these guys a year. You know how all the elite teams are playoff contenders? It's because they land 3*'s that run 4.3's or freshmen that can start midway through their 1st year like Jordan Davis. This staff is sharp shooting their evals right now and Dan Mullen is just the latest victim in the crosshairs. We're winning in every conceivable way at the moment.
Speed kills. I don’t care if he’s a 3 star. Give him 18 months with Cortez Hankton and I’m confident he’ll be just fine.
4.3 vs 4.5 = 1.8 yards or 5 ft 5 inches
A guy running a 4.5 40 yard dash runs 38.2 yards in 4.3 seconds, while the guy running the 4.3 runs 40 yards. So on a 40 yard fly route with no bumps, no fakes, no changes in direction, the guy running the 4.5 is 5.4 feet behind the guy running the 4.3.
Makes a big difference
