Tae Tae Crumes

If Jordan Anthony has true world class Olympic speed, I can't imagine him ever playing football. There's a lot of money to be made in the track community by Olympic athletes. Regardless, his career will be fun to follow.
Anthony is a World Class runner…….Officially!
It’s not fair to compare any other players speed to his. I just hope he works on slowing down to catch the ball, and we need for Will to coordinate his timing with Anthony.

I, too, have wondered about Tae Tae. Seems like the depth of the WR room is really good so maybe he's just not ready yet.
Straight line speed is great. It can be awesome. Speed and control in and out of breaks is absolutely vital to success against SEC defenses.
Tae Tae doesn't have to be the fastest player in a sprint. He could be the fastest in and out of patterns and get more playing time. Getting open and making the catch is more important than straight line speed to be an every down receiver. Tae Tae hasn't "been recruited over" but I hope he shows off the combination of versatility and speed he showed the coaches early on.

Tae Tae may not be the fastest on the team but he has legit track speed and is one of the fastest.

Correct me if I’m wrong but isn’t he playing football right now? Or do you mean professionally?
That's the thing. No one has any idea the amount of talent we have in that WR room. The potential there is crazy. Levis has had a ton more time with these guys since the bowl as well. TTC, DklC, TaRob, DaneK, BBrown, JAnthony, BWhite, and we've not really seen any of it on the field yet. This doesn't even count the veteran guys we know can make plays for us, nor the TEs.
I'm frkn stoked! Just need the OL to protect Levis and give him time to throw.
holy crap. lotta names on that list I ran with at butler.Tae Tae may not be the fastest on the team but he has legit track speed and is one of the fastest.

all those names went to butler so that would make sense including my own which I’m on there more times than I remember lol
HUH?
Must be trying to say being fast isn't everything. But it sure helps.
Calvin Bird was very fast, faster than his All American brother Rodger, but I don't think they recorded times very much back then. I know the track people wanted him to run track but the football team wouldn't let him, said it would mess up his stride for football.
He's playing football as far as I know. I'm talking about competing for and winning a spot on the Olympic team. Olympic training takes a lot of time. And I say IF he has world class speed. I haven't checked his times against other competitors so I really don't know.
Crumes gets some positive mentions usually at the beginning of Springs or Fall camps, but hasn't yet figured into depth charts. Who knows what holds him back, actually catching? Not good downfield blocking? Honestly shocked he hasn't entered the portal yet the way the trend in CFB goes. Maybe he can put it together this season.
Coaches have been VERY high on Crowdus, starting a year ago. He would have played a lot in 2021 if not for the injury. Fully expect him to get lots of snaps & catching opportunities in 2022.

Who's going to return Kicks and Punts this year? Tayvion Robinson seems the most likely at least for punts. Barion Brown? Crowdus? is this a spot where Crumes might fit in?
Just somebody to secure the ball. Actually returns are becoming less and less frequent.
TRob is the punt returner. I think McClain is returning KOs.
Crumes has had plenty of chances to advance on the chart. He is being passed by Key, Brown, and CLew. Many factors figure into being a good receiver. It is not just about speed, although speed helps. Someone mentioned Jerry Rice, who was not very fast. It is not just about size, although size helps. But Wandale is not big. Getting open means running the right route and making a good break. Catching the football means balance and physical command of the catch radius. Lots of reps with the Qback so timing is just right. In the SEC, receivers work with small windows. Coordination with the Qback must be near perfect. Kentucky's receivers also block well.
Yep recruited over. The room is just loaded now. His best shot was to make a move back in 2020 when we had nobody and he just never did.
