Lake:
“I guess in a best case scenario you’d always love to do that (redshirt freshman), but sometimes a freshman is the best player and he’s going to play. Some guys come in here wired the right way way and they’re already physically ready to go. Like a Taylor Rapp, and I’m glad we played Taylor Rapp because we got 3 years out of him.”
“He has picked up where he left off in spring. He knows the defense and knows the calls.”
On if he is surprised on Cam’s quick ascension:
“No. He came to our Redland’s camp and it was a magical 2 hours. Will Harris taught him some things and techniques, and 5 minutes later he’s doing it exactly like it was taught.”
This is incredible. During the recruiting process Lake raves about Cam Williams, and Cam says he has been told he’s coming in to take Rapp’s role. And by the end of spring the coaches can’t stop raving about him, and by the 3rd fall practice he is locked in as a starting safety and has essentially pushed McKinney aside. Looks like Lake only expects 3 years out of him if things go right.
Its.
So.
Hord.
