Latrell Williams

Tyler simmons WR, TJ Simmons WR, Jennings CB, Cole LB, Perry LB, Scales TE and Forristal TE. Not an expert but some of these appear to be skill position.

He's fast, and he's quicker than he is fast. Oh god, I want him so bad. The **** he is doing makes me drool. His cuts are precise but need coaching just cause well, I don't think he has actual moves he just does his own thing, he is just so good that it works. He looks like a skinny faster version of Sam Bruce, just gets open and away from tacklers. He'll be good.

Nike combine stats from 3/1/15.
HT:5-10.5
WT:167
40: 4.54
Shuttle: 4.86
Power Ball: 35 ft.

how is his shuttle a 4.86 and 40 4.54
 
Sometimes those camps are on grass that may be mud. They only get 1 chance and if they slip it doesn't matter. Don't take those numbers as legit.
 
A lot of those highlights were against some of the best teams in North FL. The kid made Bolles kids look like a middle school team. Bolles is notoriously a top school that gives Scholarships to kids to play sports. They win or play for state ships most years. This kid ran back a kickoff and nobody was within 20 yards of him when he crossed the goal line. Miami needs all the speed it can get right now.
 
This is a classic case of when you should ignore the workout numbers, even though they're pretty dam solid on their own. Especially with Williams' track numbers posted on the previous page by Canesfreak further proving just how fast he is.

If you look at Latrell Williams' highlights and still view him as a 4.5 guy simply because that's his listed time from nearly a year ago, then you need to get your eyes and head examined. This kid can absolutely fly and he's got lateral quicks, too. The shuttle and 40 time from last March don't mean a thing.

It's similar to someone recently knocking Fils-Aime because he ran a 4.8 at some point, even though he's a blur in his highlights against fast competition and is clearly a burner.

The film and the track times were all I needed to see.

He's one of the fastest players in the state.

Good post.

Most of these guys evaluate by the kids star rating and 247 page .

I'm not saying I'm Butch Davis , but I know an excellent athlete when I see one. ThoS guys jump off the screen, looks like they're playing at a different speed .

This kid is a future playmaker , bank on that . Wherever he goes, he'll ball.

Give me really good athletes, then put that with good coaching .I'll take that every day of the week.

There are like 10 kids in south Florida that are 4 star or better, wtf you wanna take some unranked kid?

Take Bruce, Richsrds, Mullen, and if you want more then take Ridley, Vitor, Snelson, etc etc

This is the kind of take that leads to 7 win seasons in the coastal IMO

just because they're ranked in the top 300 prospect list on 5 billion different recruiting sites doesn't mean they're better than a 3* or 2*. The coaches find out what kind of person they are and what's they're work ethic like during this whole process and weigh that just as much as they weigh their perceived talent and sometimes those 3* and 2* turn into players like Santana moss.

2 stars means you havent been rated yet. That is all.
 
Lol kid has a 16 min highlight vid and I only needed to watch 1:30 of it. Kid is legit! IMac was the same size and Richt played him his Freshman year. Just get the ball in this mans hands.

If you remember, Duke was a 4.5 kid.
 
Kid will be at least 3 star before signing day.

Virginia Tech is hot on his trail as well.

Reminds of a Baylor WR find. 100% take and I'll be bummed if we don't get him. Wow. That's a Miami WR.

This is the type of speed the Canes used to be known for. We gotta get back to recruiting burners like Latrell.

I'll take this kid right now if he wants to commit. You can't teach speed like this kid has. If we want to start winning championships again, we need to get back to the moniker we invented, "speed kills."
