Here are highlights from the NJCAA Title Game. The SBC got some big time steals with these three guys from EMCC.
Georgia Southern - RB Lakenderic Thomas
Louisiana - WR Antoine Adkins
Troy - QB Dontreal Pruitt
I was most impressed with Thomas. He reminds me of the type of running backs Alabama employs; no real blazing speed, but power and strength to bowl over would be defenders. Thomas had 1,334 yards and 18 TDs last season. 111 yards per game. Very impressed.
Adkins looks to be that go to receiver who can catch a multitude of throws. Focus while bring the ball in seems to be his strength. He is featured in almost every big throw in the title game. Louisiana also signed CJ Bates from EMCC. He has speed for days and projects at the X and Z positions.
Pruitt for Troy is a dual threat guy. A tad undersized, but he's not playing in the NFL. He's only an inch shorter than Drew Brees. Accuracy (45 TDs), speed, and elusiveness (6 rushing TDs, 1 Sack all season), seem to be his strong suit. The offense ran in this highlight video looks almost identical to what Troy runs. Should he win the job, the transition shouldn't be too difficult.
