Post by: 10EC on June 24, 2014, 11:33:18 EDT
Was at the Georgia Track
And Field Championships this weekend and saw this kid:

11 year old kid.  5'9 and won the 100m in his age group.  I know this is forever from now, but good God this kid was just a freak.

You're probably too late.  I'm sure Lane Kiffin has already offered him.

I had the in-house recruiting cord's cell phone when Kiffin was coaching. I called him about some inside info on two highly sought after recruits. This guy called me 3 times one day when I was on the golf course in Birmingham to ask me some more information about these recruits.

I guess this guy flew the coop the same time and night Kiffin did. :bird:

Just a post card or a program .....  Seriously, you can impress these kids early for cheap.

And honestly, these state track meets showcase a lot of young speed.

My understanding is it's best just to hand kids cash in an orange envelope with a power T. You're welcome.  :smile:
