his success is not surpising at all. If he switched to db he would be a great player there as well. This kid is just a flat out pure football player.

the kid is a nice player. I tip my hat to him. ANyone who even sees the field when backing up Sammy is doing something right.

I admit when I first heard he wouldn't redshirt, I was shocked. I was like what is 2-star WR doing avoiding a redshirt. But after seeing him play, he's solid for sure. Definitely has that tyler grisham/wes welker type ability. He is very shifty on the WR screen play. He won't break home run like Sammy, but he can certainly make some people miss to pick up 5-10 yards.

He is a great student, has great hands, and a motor that never stops. He's also gritty. What he lacks in speed and athleticism, he makes up for with football smarts and an iron will.

Joe Don was a white CJ Spiller. He made a 50+ yard punt
Nov 16, 2011, 6:22 PM
|
|
return for a TD in Death Valley one year that even CJ and Barry Sanders would get excited about. It was incredible. He fielded the ball just over the 50 and made 5 or 6 shake and bake ankle breaking moves, then he changed gears and blew down the field in a flash. That kid could flat fly.

He could teach a clinic on how to return kicks. Catch the ball. Don't look around. Don't dance. Just run straight up field as fast as you can.

He had a play against the Terps that pretty much won it

It was 3rd and 10 I think on about their thirty five on the drive that Tajh slung one in to Jaron Brown (our last one I think) and he caught a 5 yard comeback, got knocked back to the original LOS, broke the tackle, and got the 1st. Really impressed me.

I LOVE that he gets it. No dance, no stutter step, just north south chunks. Way to step up Humphries!

Watched him play at Dorman and all through his District 6 years. If you ever needed to know where Adam was, just look for the ball. He was there.
Just wait till he gets his teamates on the bb court, he will school them there also.
Coaches need to check out Raymond Smith at Dorman. Give him the scholorship that Destephano is going to waste. Destephano is overated. Good against small guys, no chance against equal or bigger

Seriously, this kid can flat get it done! I know a guy that is a DC at a local HS and he told me many times that Charone Peake didn't burn them, Adam Humphries did! They could not stop Humphries no matter what they schemed for. He was everywhere!

It's like Tyler Grisham is back on the field with this type of posession receiver! The depth in the WR team continues to amaze me. GO TIGERS!!
