Wonder what those vibes could be?
Fixed it for you.Wonder what those vibes could be?
Listed as a QB and then 2 of the first 3 clips on his self-made highlight video are him de-cleating guys on defense. Good lad.
Playing 8 man football out in the sunflower fields of Kansas, that's a fun lottery ticket.
All those marks are already very good, especially for a safety. We'll see if he can improve them if he's running track this Spring.
Yes, they are. And more than likely against sub-par competition and with sub-par facilities and coaching
I'm not from Chicagoland so this is an interesting perspective to me. Had to look up this Taylor Bell fellow. If indeed he had an impactful negative influence as you say, the fact that he is in the Illini Media Hall of Fame is gross.

From the story you linked..."In 1982, Bell’s story on basketball star Efrem Winters won the Jacob Scher Award as the best investigating reporting of the year in Chicago in any media." As I recall, it was a big hit piece on Illini star recruit Efrem Winters and the grades he received his senior year at King high school. He received something like straight A's, which meant he did not have to sit out his freshman year in Champaign. Keep in mind that was standard operating procedure in the Chicago Public League at the time - same thing happened a few years earlier with Russell Cross (Manley high school) so he could become eligible at Purdue. But Taylor never wrote about Cross. He was very critical of Winters' eligibility for the Illini.I'm not from Chicagoland so this is an interesting perspective to me.

His neck is too long also...lol
His long jump mark would have won the Illinois 3a championship last year. 100 meter and triple jumps marks would have put him in the top five. Illinois doesn't compete in the javelin.
When people say never... there was a time in the 60's when we went to the rose bowl and had dick butkus and family friend who played on that team told me he personally knew 20+ players in the NFL... we didn't dominate illinois recruiting back then?
He wanted Loren Tate's job back in the 60's and never got over it when he didn't get the job. He had some good information on recruiting during an era in which that info was not very accessible to the public. He was an incredibly unpleasant, negative person
