One of our top WR targets in last years recruiting cycle, Noah Henderson from CPA in Nashville, has announced he’s transferring from Charlotte to FU. Was a 3-star and had 5 FBS offers.

Press release by FU confirms.

Huge add in an area of need.

WR? Those are the exact same measurables as our All SoCon Center in 1982. Ask sluggo - he’ll confirm FUBeAR’s assertion. And...the guy who replaced him at Center was FASTER.

Welcome to Mr. Henderson! #FUATT

This is a potentially huge get for FU. We really need a big time receiver and this kid sure looks like one.

There's an edit in here I find interesting and curious (I'm a video editing nerd so I notice these things)... about 55 seconds in, he's running down the sideline and being chased by a number 8 in white, who is gaining on the angle. Then there's an edit and the shot is zoomed in, number 8 is now on the ground and Noah is running over/past him. Not that any of it really matters, I'm just curious now as to what transpired to get #8 on the ground and why it would be intentionally excluded.

^^^ noticed that too Bootie - also a big editing nerd. Some creative stop jump editing and I might be wrong here also multiple camera angles. I assumed that Henderson stiff-armed #8.

Henderson is a physical receiver I'm excited to see how he performs in the Dins offense.

I’m a football nerd & unless I’m blind...the edited play y’all are breaking down at about 1:00 is the same play as the 1st real action-y play on the vid @ :20... which is unedited (more or less).

Mystery (Science Theater) solved?

Sidenote, I also just figured out your screen name haha.

I got a kick out of this quote from Ingle Martin discussing why Henderson didn't have P5 offers:
“When you look at what he’s doing physically and production-wise, there is no question he’s a Power-5 receiver,” said CPA football coach Ingle Martin, who was in the NFL for three seasons after playing college football at both Florida and Furman.. “He’s getting better and better.

“I’m not a college coach. I’m just a stupid high school coach. I don’t know anything.”

Great get. Would love to see another and another. SPEED KILLS. I got tired of watching APy break our ankles in space. Which they did.

You cannot replace speed and the threat it presents. I have heard CH say he realizes we need more playmakers to compete at a higher level.

If we can find a QB to consistently get him the ball. :D
