He showed some flashes in the Cal game last year
but consistent hands and route running is always going to win over raw speed.

I think the hype died last year

agreed. hype died when he was caught from behind

Stressed hammy most of the year. You could see him pull up on that play.

Maybe - wasn't limping or compensating during stride

who is a byu player who catches kickoffs and punts above his head, alex?

I'm guessing not because of route running (unless that's somehow improved)

He's also too tentative & doesn't run strong. Would love for a switch to flip.

Nah. Given our depth at WR, I'd be surprised if Blackmon made any sort of impact

Blackmon has speed

I believe Blackmon's speed has been greatly exaggerated.

Blackmon is a track guy

I know he's a track guy, and I've heard him claim a 10.5 sec. 100 meter, but...

did he get run down from behind once or was there a pattern of it?

There were several times last year where he caught the ball in space and was

Alright...I did a little more research. The guy that ran Blackmon out of bounds

You can't seriously be trying to assign Blackmon a new 100 meter time based
donnerstag

Really? He was chased down and pushed out of bounds by a known 11.5 to 11.7

While it may be true that Blackmon is not a 10.5 100 meter guy

I've seen him work out on carpet, too (at the IPF)...

I have no firsthand knowledge to say whether Blackmon is or isn't a 10.5 guy but

I don't think Blackmon knows what the 100 meter times are of his opponents

He was running full speed. He didn't back off until the very end.

Looking at his track profile, I don't see any 100 meter times either

spending time thinking vs reacting can impact speed on the field...

I like Juergens but he had some issues last year...

Blackmon will be a factor this year

Did he have a redshirt available? He was a 2011 guy.

That's right. I think he was a 2 and done player
