Like most high school football players at this time of year, Shadrach Thornton is tired of running through his own teammates. He's ready for a different-colored jersey.

I like the quote," I just want to go out and do my thing and show them that they made the right choice when they put me No. 1 on their board." Sounds promising. I really hope we can get this kid to commit. I'd say by midseason if we could pull of an upset or two we could be looking pretty good.
It smells like microwaved homeless people in here.

I know it's early but I like Thornton as Clemons v2.0. Great blend of speed and power.

I love his power. He'd be a great workhorse back. Great vision, great balance, sets up blocks well, plows over opponents......doesn't have crazy break away speed, but that's fine by me......they happen rarely anyway. I'd rather have runs of +3, +5, +3, +20, +4........than -2, +3, -4, +50, -2.

X Infinity. Second and six or third and three are wonderful places to be. Second and twelve and third and nine are not.
