aubrandon 5 Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 This kid must be one heck of an athlete. Two days ago he was moved to wide reciever. He spent thursday morning, according to Sports Call, running with the 2nd team. He has not even had time to learn the position. Scout teams were announced and you guessed it Mario Fannin is not there. Coaches like his athleticism so much that he will be getting playing time. Very very impressive to do that as a true freshman.

AuNuma1 1 Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 Wasn't he supposed to be a tailback? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MDM4AU 280 Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 Wasn't he supposed to be a tailback? Yeah but the stable is a bit full: LINK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sogaaufan 27 Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 From what I understand bout Mario, he could play wherever he wants. During the summer football camps the coaches were raving about his athletic ability. He was a quarterback in high school, but he could plug in wherever he is needed.

WAR-MATT 2 Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 He will be one we talk about long after he leaves AU. I read somewhere that a former MLB pitcher said "he was the most talented baseball player in the state of GA last year". The last time he played baseball prior to his senior year, he was 12.

quietfan 233 Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 He was a quarterback in high school, but he could plug in wherever he is needed. Courtney Taylor was also a QB in high school, and of course, he's already thrown for one touchdown at Auburn. Two former QB's and Al Borges coaching--you know opposing DC's will have nightmares about trick plays! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aubie16 1 Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 From Courtney Taylor... "He's probably one of the best athletes I've seen since I've been here. Before he leaves Auburn, he's going to end up playing everything. He's going to be the next Reggie Bush. Mark it down." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
