[Dandycane]

Need more intelligent white kids to be a Stanford type school. Like.

Carter Jacob is a Duke player... not U caliber...now as for Kyle Gibson he is a heat seeking missile... do want...

reminds me of brandon meriweather-lite.

but never trust armwood since chris murray.

You took it back with Chris Murray. He came out in like 2000 right? He was a STUD but didn't he have grade issues?

This may sound like a dumb question to some.

But if a kid is around 170, and puts on 15 or so pounds of good weight in a college S&C program, does he end up getting faster or slower.

Depend how trained he already was but with HS kids, normally they should get faster, if he's trained the right way...

Hey Tito... Thanks for the update. We're in the conversation, but are we legitimate contenders for Gibson?

Tampa Armwood Safety Kyle Gibson released a top 5 yesterday in no order of Notre Dame, Vanderbilt, Louisville, USF and Miami.

TIFWIW

As far as how much we are in the race, I'm hearing he is looking out of state. Miami and USF might be in there just because we have recruited him well.

Most likely faster. Fast twitch, explosive training nets muscle gain and better speed/agility numbers.

Miami offered late and has work to do, that is clear.

Stock on ITU said at one of those 7 on 7 events a S FL Fire coach told him either Michael Johnson, Marquese Dudley Gordon, or Andre Godfrey would be offered. This was a few weeks ago and neither of them were offered for whatever reason and Gibson was offered 12 June.

It should be faster but every kid is different. There are some cases (mostly fully matured athletes) where a S&C program and training has made them slower. Unfortunately speed is greatly determined by genetics and training can definitely improve speed/agility, but there is a ceiling

Can't say much for high school. I remember when Chris Johnson ran the 4.2 at the combine. Whatever medical professionals told him if he starts to get over 215 he will lose speed and he wont be running a 4.2 more like a 4.3. I haven't looked at his weight since 2008 so who knows how much weight he's gained.
