I think Grayson owes you a future podcast appearance for all the love.
He does look like a really fun player and clearly knows how to win. I remember when Russell was entering the draft and we were just learning about his history. One of the things that stood out was how much he loved winning and seemingly made everyone around him better at their jobs at whatever level he played at. Work on that "zip" Grayson, and go Chanticleers!
What's your prediction of the Hawk's draft position next year? How can you judge McCall's talent when he plays in the Sun Belt conference? Where do you think he'll go in the draft?
Ball-handling is definitely not noticed or valued enough. A fraction of a second along with the running-back having to slow down or twist around makes all he difference whether a play is successful or not. Seeing the oncoming attackers and being able to make (the correct) split-second decision has to be somewhat innate. Son of Color has that down pat.
We need to talk about McCall's competition. He seems to have good skills, but is he just a big fish in a small pond? How will it translate to NFL comp?

Interesting read (and watch). I hope you have some connections with the Hawks office to also share your study with them.
They will for sure make their own evaluation, but still if you are rooting for the Hawks to see what you see then why not share your study? 😉

Is it against the rules to entice a player to sign before they finish their college career?
One more question...can a draftee decline to join the team that drafts them?
