Check out my senior highlights. (must watch)

[Mr. Scot]

Watched your vid through a couple of times. A few things...

You've definitely got some elusiveness and very good run vision. Those things are more important than a lot of people know.

Good feet. Good body lean. You know how to use your pads ("run behind your pads" as the saying goes). Somewhere along the way someone has taught you to finish off your runs. That's strong. Just don't forget that runners take a lot of hits and at the next level your opponents will hit harder, so protect yourself (and don't get too cocky).

Lots of solid open field running. Nice work weaving your way through traffic. At your size, you might want to concentrate on working out as a third down scatback and/or a punt return specialist (depends somewhat on what school you go to). If so, make sure you secure that football when you feel opposing players getting close.

On those long outside runs, always try and keep your eyes downfield. Appeared to me like you looked at the sidelines a few times and you were kinda horizontal at first. Try and stay as square as you can. Yes, you do still have to keep aware of where the sideline is (it's possible to develop a "feel" for it with practice) but you don't want to miss opportunities.

It doesn't apply as much in high school, but on the next level you'll want to concentrate on learning how to best use your blockers. Be patient and let them set up for you and you'll get farther than you will on your own. You did that some on a play or two I saw (saw you put your hand on your blockers back like Stephen Davis did so well) but you'll need that skill more often in college than you did in high school.

Remember, at the next step, you'll only be playing against guys that were good enough to make a college team, so you have to step up your game. Don't stop working. Talent can only get you so far. It eventually plays itself out if you don't have a work ethic to go with it. The ones who succeed are the ones who are willing to work just a little harder than the others.

One other thing: Don't neglect your education. Remember you're not just an athlete. You're also a student.

My thoughts, for what they're worth...

You gotta have a coach that cares about kids and helps them land somewhere. Sounds like your coach is a dick. My former coach was the biggest douche and a dick when it came to that. We won a state title that year with Charles Briggs (Mr BB and FB for NC that year), Goo, Atkins. Few robberies, fake SAT scores and out of control behaviour, none of our guys made it out of town.

Such a shame.
