Dixie1860 27 Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 I assume he projects as a RB? http://www.al.com/au...r_4-star_2.html This says he would get a shot at QB but would be open to playing FB or RB. I don't think many people see him as a QB at the next level. My nephew was his left tackle the last couple of years so I've watched him a lot. While very talented, he's not the electric athlete that Vanover was and he likely won't be playing QB at the next level. He's a DB-WR-maybe RB. He was a workhorse last year, they called QB run after run after run. He was not really a passing threat and Leon did not really have a great WR threat. My other nephew may be one if his guards this year…I'll keep watching him. Leon always fields a very talented team. I can picture him as a very good LB. I wanna play...I can picture him as a Unicorn, jumping over rainbows!! (Am I doing it right?) Definitely NOT right! :- ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dixie1860 27 Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 Is it just me, or does his name sound like someone is intentionally mispronouncing "D'Anthony"? Anfernee is not a terribly uncommon name. Still sounds like an intentional mispronunciation of Anthony ... as if you were mocking someone's poor diction. We can just call him "Penny" if he comes to AU.

BeatBama1972 11 Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 Is he 6' or 6' 3"? The first post list him at 6' with a quote about him being 6' 3". Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tivo48 31 Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 Keith Neibuhr just made his CB prediction to Auburn. First one to do so. Dameyune Craig is listed as his primary recruiter - can't be upset at all about that. EDIT: Is he 6' or 6' 3"? The first post list him at 6' with a quote about him being 6' 3". Thanks Likely somewhere inbetween. 247 has him at 6'1". Rivals at 6'0". Scout at 6'3". ESPN at 6'0". So likely a little closer to the 6' mark, but he may grow a little between now and signing day too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timeslider 6 269 Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 What position does this guy project at? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dixie1860 27 Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 WR. I am really intrigued by this kid. He is a big frame kid and he can move. I don't think he is a burner but he is physical enough. The situation reminds me of Ricardo Louis a bit. They aren't exactly alike but their skills are similar IYAM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dixie1860 27 Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 Yeah, he is fast enough. When you consider he also weighs 230lbs or so. I like his downfield vision setting up his runs too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I definitely think we can find a place on the field this this guy if if is open to both offense and defense. He can play football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDUBB4AU 5,102 Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 This kid moves well and carries his weight well. He can play everywhere except oline and Dline. Very impressive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dixie1860 27 Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 This kid moves well and carries his weight well. He can play everywhere except oline and Dline. Very impressive I am in agreement with you, but then I thought about DE. He COULD develop the body to play DE, but it isn't likely. He is an incredible athlete though and versatile.

I'm not recallingt that, so much as he got so popular so quickly that the issue of who was top dog between him and Shaq was an issue, as it eventually was with Shaq and Kobe.
