Texas' Marquise Goodwin (national HS record holder in LJ) snagged four passes for 36 yards and one touchdown today against Oklahoma. He's actually at UT on t&f scholarship, so we'll see him sprinting and jumping again this spring.

While I wish him all the best in football, it may not be too good for his track future. The better he is in football the more the coaches will demand a strong spring committment. We may see him next spring, but often these guys are "lost" to football by their junior years.

"He's a football player," Davis said. "Nobody should think any different."

Musberger predicted he would be the premier LJer in 2012, ignoring Dwight Phillip's 2 foot better PB.

Originally posted by lonewolfTrue. One problem might be, at 5-9, 170#, if he beefs up for football, he may be too big to LJ. Eric Metcalfe is/was about that size, jumped 27 ' in college but I don't think he jumped again after starting pro football.
