    Those practice clips were very impressive. Impressive route running, quick feet and sticky hands. All that plus sub 4.4 speed at 6'3" 210.

    Yeah, he was the RB at UF during his two years, and Vince Kendrick was the FB. He didn't become a receiver until he got to the Dolphins.

    Val Brown was an Eastside grad and started at DE when Charley Pell was at UF. Plus, I can't believe I forgot about Johnell and Vernell Brown, Vernon James, Wayne Fields, Melvin Fluornoy, Mike Nattiel, Shea Showers, Mark McGriff, Wylie Rich, Zac Zedalis, Mike Harris, Keith Kelsey. All of them were Alachua County kids, and all of them started during their time at UF. Most of them weren't walkons, but they were major contributors in their time at UF.
