Great news from the land of Walt Disney World, tourist traps, big chain restaurants, the most deadly highway in the country, and Florida Man!
The Huskers landed the commitment of three-star Florida wideout Victor Jones Jr. Thursday evening. The 6-foot-2, 190-pound receiver plays his prep ball at Olympia High in Orlando. That is also the alma mater of former All-Pro RB and former fastest man in the NFL Chris Johnson. Jones lines up at wide receiver for the team, as well as returning punts and kicks.
Upon watching his film, I can't help but notice his speed! He is busting off explosive plays in every way on the field, jet sweeps, post routes, screen passes, the whole nine. He also runs a personal best of 10.94 in the 100 meter dash and runs a reported 4.3 second 40, which lends credence to the speed on film. He recorded 36 catches, 663 yards, and 10 TDs in 2020, which proves he can get vertical in a hurry. He reminds me a lot of former Iowa Hawkeye WR Ihmir Smith-Marsette, who bust off explosive plays in a multitude of ways for our rivals to the east.
