Got a chance to watch Deon, Jeff Luc, and the rest of the Titans play last night, and I have to say that I was not that impressed with Deon or Jeff.
Deon is definitely a great athlete, but he's very skinny right now. Rail thin would be an accurate statement. He did flash his speed a couple of times by chasing down some RB's from behind, but he was pretty much non-existent and his name was not called very often.
Jeff Luc is an absolutely AMAZING looking physical specimen, looks like an NFL player on a high school field. His listed height/weight of 6'1, 240 is probably right on the money. He is jacked and ripped beyond ripped. However, he probably did even less than Deon.
The kid from Treasure Coast that impressed me the most was their QB and WR. The QB is only a sophomore and he's probably only 5'10/5'11, but he's lighting quick, very good speed, and he's got a very strong arm- can make all of the throws. In fact, he probably throws the ball too hard right now and he overthrew quite a few passes. If QB doesn't work out for him he's definitely a good enough athlete to play WR or CB.
The best player on the field last night though was the WR, #4. The kid was really just unbelievable. He's a tall kid too, looked to be 6'1/6'2, he had some nice size to him. Treasure Coast was only up 6-3 for most of the game until that kid went off late in the 2nd half and got Treasure Coast 2 TD's to pull ahead 20-3. He showed off his speed and quickness by taking a short little screen 81 yards to the house for a TD. It was an incredible play, don't know if I can do it justice trying to describe it.
His 2nd TD catch was about 25-30 yards, but it was just as impressive if not more impressive than his 1st TD catch. The ball was poorly thrown on a fade route and the kid was double covered, had a CB behind him and a safety in front of him, he timed his jump perfectly, went up and snatched the ball at the highest point with his hands, and he sandwiched as the CB hit him from behind and the safety absolutely destroyed him with a monstrous hit, but the kid still held onto the ball for the score.
I mean it was a nasty hit, a kill shot, but the kid showed incredible toughness and willingness to take a hit. The hit was pretty bad, and the kid tried to get up but fell right back down to the ground and had to be helped off the field. Luckily it wasn't anything too serious, as he was back in the game a couple of series later.
