  • NFL Draft 2017 Scouting Report: RB Kareem Hunt, Toledo
    2017 NFL DRAFT SCOUTING REPORT APRIL 18, 2017 NFL Draft 2017 Scouting Report: RB Kareem Hunt, Toledo *Our RB grades can and will change as more information comes in from Pro Day workouts, leaked Wonderlic test results, etc. We will update ratings as new info becomes available. *We use the term “Power RB” to separate physically bigger, more between-the-tackles–capable RBs from our “speed RBs” group. “Speed RBs” are physically smaller, but much faster/quicker, and less likely to flourish between the tackles. Kareem Hunt is not the best running back prospect in this draft. However, Hunt may be the best in this class at 'being a running back'. Let me explain… Hunt is not a big, bruising, powerful running back. He is not a breakaway-with-speed runner. In fact, his measurables, athletically, are pretty weak compared to any of the top guys. He's not 40-time fast. His agility times were disappointing. He supposedly played at 220+ pounds during the season, but he went to the Senior Bowl and weighed in at 208 pounds. By the NFL Combine, he was back up to 216 pounds. Based on analytics, you have to mostly dismiss Kareem Hunt as NOT an NFL starter-type RB. However, when you watch Hunt's tape – you see he's the best at what he does in this class. When I first watched tape of Hunt, I was dismissive…a skeptic. A 220+ pound RB who is really 208 pounds (as I saw at Senior Bowl week)? A 'tweener' size without a lot of speed.

  • THIS IS A-STATE THIS IS A-STATE 10 Zone at Thesametime
    THIS IS A-STATE CENTENNIAL BANK STADIUM ARKANSAS STATE THIS IS A-STATE Thanks to one of two $5 million gifts - the largest individual donation in A-State Athletics history - by alumnus Johnny Allison, a “Centennial Expansion” construc- tion and renovation project to Centennial Bank Stadium’s press box and west- side concourse took place prior to the 2015 season. The entire project, including the press box and concourse, covered 40,000 square feet. The Centennial Expansion project included a complete overhaul to the stadium press box, expanding it from 7,120 to 36,000 square feet. The face of the stadium has been redesigned to include 42 loge boxes, 20 suites, a club area covering close to 8,000 square feet and 344 club seats in its revenue-generating areas. Not only has depth been added to the press box, it now spans from approxi- mately the 15-to-15 yard lines, allowing for enhanced media, coaching, broad- casting, control booth, visiting athletics directors suite and camera areas. The project also called for major improvements and additions to the concourse bathrooms, concessions, official gear and apparel shop and gating and ticketing areas that have improved the game-day experience for all A-State fans. A-State partnered with Daktronics Inc. prior to the start of the 2014 season to install an approximately 1,600-square foot LED video display scoreboard in Cen- tennial Bank Stadium’s south end zone, along with a custom audio system, play clocks and locker room clocks. The south end zone display measures approximately 32 feet high by 50 feet wide and features a 15HD pixel layout.
