WR Ray Small (official thread)

Can't wait to see Ray in action!

You think he is ready, I would rather have Dukes in there for at least the first couple of games.

it doesn't matter if we think he is ready. All that matters is that the coaching staff thinks he ready... and they apparently do .
In JT we trust

I think this is a ploy to try and get Dukes to step it up.

I would still like to see Ray redshirt if at all possible, but if not I will look forward to seeing him on the field.

Wasn't it mentioned a few days ago that Dukes has an injury?

Yes...and didn't people keep waiting for Bam Childress to step it up at tOSU? Dukes seems to be following the same path of inconsistency. Bam seemingly straightened himself out in New England....hopefully Albert's light will click on as well.

However, don't take anything away from Ray...he is an amazing talent and will be a star soon.

Some people are just greedy and want them all to be stars.

Albert still has 3 years for that light bulb to go on and he has tons of athletic ability, so once he puts it together he should be fine.

Kind of ironic, but Small looks a lot bigger than I thought he would, in person he doesn't look small at all.

Small

I think the way Ray's recruiting went ie being able to get into school with grades makes me more excited to see him on the field because I want to see if the wait and stress was worth it.

 

[matcar]

I excited to see him as well.

No way we redshirt a guy with his speed and talent. Let's get him on the field and start making plays!

Unless you have five or 6 guys in front of him with that same speed and talent and a lil more experience. Just a numbers thing and gives you a lil more time to progress and get to know the nuances of the game.

 

[akronbuck]

he plays like a combo of gonzo/ginn.
He was running the routes really nice towards the ball ,catching like gonzo and running with speed like them both.

 

[Smooth Olaf]

I really like what I've seen so far.

Ginn Sr. says he's the best WR he ever coached, and he's seeing serious time as a true freshman - 'nuff said. Let the dawn of the Ray-Gun offense begin!

Not to rain on those comments, but there may be a reason coach Ginn said that... The only time he coached his own son as a WR was when he was only a sophomore. Teddy played QB as a JR and SR.

 

[akronbuck]

good point but, he also, said darius Hiley was a step better then his son.

Look at this way, Small is ahead of robiske, who I see as a faster jenkins and hartline, who is a 6 3 gonzo. To me that says it all because, I'm so happy with all of them at WR'S
