You think we'll see him in the jet sweep this week? I've noticed that Scangarello seems to be different than Coen on play calling.
Barion Brown
- Thread starter Boyd94
- Start date
His game is speed vs. maneuverability from what I see.
We going to see a lot of plays that were not shown last week
Seems like he could be the burner we've been looking for since Badet transferred.
This. We were obviously not trying to show our offense last week. Tune up. We will see some stuff Saturday. Will it work? Don’t know. Depends on the left side of the line.
We don't know what Scang is on playcalling yet, because they were playing base vanilla offense last week, he broke out nothing of the real scheme to not put anything on tape for Florida. I love the gamesmanship. Just like us Florida has no clue what to expect from our offense this week.
If Badet was a jet, Brown must be a supersonic jet, and I'm curious to see what Jordan Anthony can do, if all the coaches and players say he's faster than Brown.
Brown is more than fast. Watch his tape. He can make cuts no human should be able to make.
As for speed, Anthony posted a 100m time in high school that was 0.35 seconds faster than Brown's best. That is a massive differential for such a short distance. Anthony may be the fastest player in football at any level.

Thats why I'd like to see them get him on the field for some gadget play touches or maybe even in the backfield with us so thin there right now, just to get that speed on the field and see what he can do with the ball in his hands, especially since he's so far down the WR depth.
Bet we see a lot of sets with multiple tight ends this week. That will help the offensive line.
Get the ball in that kids hands as much and as many ways as possible.
Not sure if his speed cares over to football speed. I would say him and Brown would be close. Throw in a Key and you have to love the future. If a QB can’t see what we have and want to play here I don’t know what to tell them!

IF Anthony has legit world class speed I'm not convinced we'll ever see him on the football field. If speed is real he may opt for Olympics which takes a lot of time and training. Lots of money to be made by Olympic athletes.
Brown has elite speed. Anthony has world class speed. Like olympic caliber speed. Are they letting him run track as well?
None of us can tell what Scangarellos play calling will be like after seeing 1 game against a MAC team .
True, but what I'm hoping to see us utilize more this game is the flat passes and dump offs to the backs. We did some last week but it was almost as a panic move when Will was under duress. Like to see us have more planned dumps where Will looks downfield for a beat then dumps it off. The wings are hard to defend and where space is
Brown's a playmaker, no doubt. But don't forget he only weighs about 165, that somewhat limits how he's used.
On that KO return, at first it looked like he just hit his middle gap then got outside. But watch it a few times and you can see these subtle like cuts that froze the pursuit for just a split second. Awesome.
I’ll be interesting to see how our young receivers hold up against press coverage with strong D backs.
Most teams can kick it through the end zone on kickoffs. Don’t be surprised after he returned one he gets almost zero returnable balls.
Brown ran a 10.8 100M in high school. Anthony ran a 10.2 100M. That's world class speed in high school.
Just as to compare: Usain Bolt has the world record in the 100M at 9.58. Lexington's own Tyson Gay is second at 9.69.
Interestingly, the difference between those guys and Anthony is the same as the difference between Anthony and Brown. Kinda gets my attention thinking of it that way.
The fastest US runner in the 100 is Lyle's. Anthony's best 100 in HS is .01 off Lyles best. I think Lyles ran the fastest time in the world last year
He can bring it out even if he's 2-3 yards deep or maybe more. I'm not gonna 2nd guess him if he does
Iirc it said there was only 2 or 3 NFL players clocked at that speed last year. That's blazing.
Agree with the poster about limited opportunities. Doubt he'll get many with the changed kickoff rules resulting in virtually everything being a touchback
They did hold back. You will see a less vanilla approach and a few exotic plays thrown in. We also didn't throw to the backs as much as we know that this is a heavy RB touch in the passing game system. I don't remember a single pass to a RB in the game. At least not a completion. McClain did have a drop but that was the only attempt I can remember.
I know the tight ends had to help block, but Utah had a lot of success with their tight ends against Florida, Kentucky needs to find ways to get upshaw, and Cummings the ball
