After you're done watching that video, go to the James Clark thread, click on the first page, scroll down to post #7, click on Clark's highlight film, and imagine Clark and Wilson on the field at the same time. :yow1::yow1::yow1:

Amazing thing is you typically do not see a kid with that kind of lateral quickness also have asbolute burners for top end speed. Talk about a home run threat every time he touches the ball.

Wilson caught the OSU coaching staff?s attention while playing for DeSoto High School in DeSoto, Texas, because of his ability to make an impact as a running back and a receiver. According to ESPN, Wilson accumulated more than 2,600 total yards of offense and 46 touchdowns in 2012. ?There are not too many people in the country that can do that,? Meyer said. ?That?s a very unusual athlete.? After the Buckeyes won the battle with Oregon to acquire Wilson?s services, running backs coach Stan Drayton and receivers coach Zach Smith began fighting for the rights to personally coach the multi-talented athlete. ?We?re so excited to have him in this system,? said Drayton, who coached Harvin with Meyer at Florida. Like Harvin during his time with the Gators, Wilson will likely receive most of his tutelage directly from Meyer, while spending some time with both Drayton and Smith as well. Drayton, though, didn?t seem too upset about this arrangement. He beamed while talking about Wilson on National Signing Day, the first day coaches can speak about incoming talent. It?s easy to understand why OSU coaches are so enthusiastic about Wilson. Many athletes are fast, but few possess world-class speed. Wilson is in the second category. ?You sit there and look at his track time. His track times are national times,? Drayton said. ?He can be a collegiate track athlete and be an All-American. He is that fast. ?That?s probably one of the missing pieces to the puzzle that we were looking for to complete the spread type of philosophy that we run here.?

:yow2::yow2::yow2: Wow...to blow the doors off that type of competition in a 7 on 7 event is just insane. People can hardly stop him with a one-hand touch. Really easy to see why UFM & the staff made him a priority...Dontre is going to come in and contribute immediately. That type of speed and actual football awareness/agility is rare. I'm sure in the staff's eyes (mine too once he adds a little muscle) he is a 5 star. Once Marotti gets ahold of Dontre, the sky is the limit. I'm having trouble waiting for the season to start...so much the staff can do in the future with Wilson, Marshall, Clark, Smith, and EzE.

Do we have any really good blocking receivers? If we do, the screen pass could be deadly in 2013 for the Buckeyes.

I think Thomas could be a really good blocker and I think D. Smith is underrated as a blocker. But agreed, we need to do something to get Wilson the ball on some rocket and bubble screens.

The amount of speed and play makers that UFM brought in this year is going to make this one of the elite Offenses in CFB. I'm equally impressed with Clark whose speed reminds me of Ginn Jr. He separates quickly and then leaves people behind.
