The NUC (National Underclassman Combine) is taking place at TriCities H.S. I'll be updating players stats 0f interest to Dawg fans as they become available through Scouts.
Two Georgia commits, Corey Moore and Amarlo Herrera are there today. Moore has run a 4.60 and 4.5 40-yard dash. Herrera ran a 4.74 and 4.85 40. Moore ran a 4.50 shuttle, while Nile Daniel ran a 4.20...
Corey Moore is having what has to be called a break-out day. He's better in coverage than Chad thought he would be, but still has the ability to jam foes at the line. Chad thinks he could be in line for the MVP award. He is also very eager to be there... jumping into the drill as much as possible, The coaches at the event are pleased with him... Herrea is being forced to deal with smaller running backs, and that means he's not having a great matchup day.
Corey had an OUTSTANDING day... He was named the top DB there and looked BETTER than I expected in man to man coverage. He really opened up his hips well and ran with receivers.
Herrera is a middle backer all the way as I said before and he is just too big to run with those little scat-backs out of the backfield. Very physical and confident though.
A couple of guys that impressed me were...
Tarik Cook - Stephenson - Center: He is very strong, he has a nice punch, and good technique... I missed him on my top 50, but no real tape hurts him. He is a definitely high 3 star at the worst and will be in my updated rankings for sure.
Zach Witchett - Washington - WR: He is a vertical threat that gets great separation. He really chases the ball down well and adjusts to the ball nicely.
Nile Daniel - Griffin - WR: This kid is slick and slippery... Good hands, quicker than fast, but really makes guys lose their balance when running his routes.
Kyle Harris - Pepperrell - OL: He had a solid day, but was probably the 3rd best OL today. He has very good feet and he has good hand placement, but he loses his balances, he lunges a little at times, and he does not hold his blocks like he should.
NUC's top sophomore:
Jordan Jenkins was the talk of the event for about three or four hours. As soon as the 6-foot-3, 230 pound sophomore defensive end ran the 40 yard dash in 4.67 seconds, he was the talk of the event.
During the one on one session, he was stopped one time, but the rest of the time he was dominant. He used speed off the edge to beat the offensive linemen to the outside, he used the swim move a couple of times and the linemen hardly touched him, and he worked the spin move in there as well.
