David Douglas

  • Who knew? This guy is one stud athlete. According to Frank Scelfo, Douglas did what we (the coaching staff) asked him to do and added that maybe we should have been asking him to do more. Guy runs a 4.39 in the forty and in an interview Foles says, "punch him in on youtube and watch his between the legs dunk." So I did, and here it is:

    He had about a 38 inch vertical which is in Nick Johnson range.

  • That speed would have come in handy for one more year. If he ran that in the combines or with someone who can hire him timing him, someone will start his career on television. Good stuff. Thank you.

  • Douglas is elusive, fast, has good hands, and runs good routes. He will make it at the next level.

  • .........Plus, he has a great move in getting open. Look at game tape and much of the time, he just snuck by the DBs.

    "Who Knew?" Well obviously not our old coaching staff.... if he was actually an NFL quality receiver, we did not use him nearly enough. Maybe he got smothered by Bondurant in practice and therefore no one thought he was all that great.

  • "Who Knew?"

    Another example of talent misused, underutilized and/or ignored by the previous coaching staff.

    Does anyone think that speed could have been used by our Jr. HS offensive coordinator going across the middle, to open up the whole field?

    Crossing patterns? Post patterns? Unknown to our uber young guy calling the shots from high atop the field.

  • I always liked Douglas and never understood why Arizona lined him up in the slot, but whatever now. I'm going to call the 2000's the "Lost Decade" moving forward.

    The program experienced a lot of positive change under Stoops, but that change didn't impact the bottom line goal of winning games as much as it needed to. This is yet another reason why.
