I said it after the Duke BBall game, I don't think it affected anyone (Collins included) as much as Coley. He was excited to stand up and acknowledge the fans chanting his name. It didn't really hit me till the next day, but I know his experience there cemented his decision; getting Coach Coley in was just icing. I think he plays from the 1st game and after 2-3 games he's our #1 receiver.
How does a Chad Johnson comparison work? There's something to his game that has reminded me of him.
That's the best comparison there is for him. The quickness in and out of the breaks is what made Chad unstoppable and thats exactly what makes Coley such a beast. Can't say for sure, but he is probably faster than Chad if we're talking straight line 40 speed.
Everything else is fairly similar. Both have tremendous ball skills and the same frame. Chad's technique is obviously ahead of Coley's due to years of training and coaching. Hopefully Coley has a similar work ethic and sharpens his footwork and route running to that point.
As of right now though, he gives us the ability to blow the top off the coverage. Even though Dorsett could get deep, he isn't going to win one on one battles deep down field. Coley on the other hand, can win the jump ball battle against most college safeties and corners.
