Spoke with coach Floyd at the Trussville Chamber today, asked him about Ja’Varrius. Nothing earth-shattering, but he laughed at the fact he’s ranked 113th (IIRC) at WR and 40-something in the state overall. He said there’s hardly 20-25 WRs better than him in the country, much less 110+. He said that AU keeps comparing him to Ryan Davis, and Floyd agrees. He said Ja’Varrius can fly, but what separates him is his catching and ball skills. He said most guys his size and position are just water bugs that dance and juke, but he’s a complete receiver... just in 5’9 175lb body. Expecting to get him the ball early and often this season.

i’m not, and i’m not the arguing type... but i guess we’ll see over the next 2-3 years. he’s an all-SEC talent.

got it sourced that at least one SEC school shares my concerns. his weight could be an issue if not managed closely.

million dollar question: does he play at or below his current weight? or does he balloon up to 350+ like some fear he may. if the kid controls his size, he’ll be an animal for us. if not, he’ll be Eric Mack 2.0.
