    GREAT NEWS! Good Solid Pickup....This guy is faster that 4.5, and he's very athletic, and has good solid hands...UGA and UF must be highly P.O. letting this guy get away. Way to go DJ Mac and Les.

    So much for what we know.

    Everything pointed GA.

    Looks like a tremendous YAC receiver. We'll take that all day long. In addition, I think we just found our punt returner.

    Look for his stock to go up as he plays exclusively receiver this season.

    He does appear to have very good hands and for his size he seems to be fearless. Good pick up! I like the WRs with the wiggle to them as well. They do fit in perfectly to CGC offense.

    His HS AD said that he reminds him of Steve Smith (Carolina Version) because besides just being fast he loves to get up and battle for the ball against larger defenders.

    mctiger RIP, and thanks for the music Staff Member

    Thanks for the highlights, bhelm. RW's got mad skills after the catch! Aside: I hate HS public address announcers who think they're on the radio.

    Re the video, nothing is more aggravating than a press box announcer who feels the need to do play by play.

    He may go he may go he may go...Touchdown :angryfire

    Glades AD compares him to Steve Smith of the Panthers. Small in stature but plays much stronger. A dynamic receiver with great hands, can be possession or deep threat or whatever you need.

    And lo and behold, he's a great kid.

    I really believe Miles enters character into the equation of where the staff ranks their players.

    I'm definitely surprised by this, as I did not think he had a committable offer. His talent is undeniable though & I'm happy to have him!

    I too am suprised by this. Makes me think the coaches dont think we have much of a shot at DeBose. No denying Wooten is a talent though, in the mold of DeBose. He has very good vision, with the quickness to weave in and out. Could be used like a Skylar Green.

    NELA_Tigerfan When's kickoff?

    Wow! I thought he was a UGA lock. Hope it sticks!
