Sup fellas. Mostly just lurk here in the RF and participate in the occasional "worry circle" but I actually have a question i have asked before elsewhere and nobody could ever answer so....
Does anyone know whats going on with WR Nathan Leacock?
He was the highest rated WR in his class at UT....75th ranked recruit OVERALL from the Raleigh area. Tall, fast, and expected to contribute obviously with a ranking that high. But he seriously disappeared. We see Nimrod, we even see Webb from the same WR class....but never see Leacock. Ever. Did he get hurt? Have a family/personal problem and need time away from football? Hell even practice squad guys like Jancek get snaps when Leacock does not. Thats not supposed to happen with a high 4* kid ranked 75th in his class. It just isnt. Dude has been a ghost since he got here but I havent seen anyone that knows why?
Also...I get that sometimes guys and especially WR are "late bloomers" and arent ready to contribute until they are upperclassmen. Even Hyatt didnt really break out until his Junior year. I get it. But Hyatt saw snaps as a Fr/So and we heard and read little things about him hear and there. Leacock has had none of the above. Does anyone know what's up with him? I had really high hopes for the kid from over here in NC...I still do. Hopefully he breaks out soon and is a factor in our passing game? We just brought in 2 beastmode WR in this 24 class though that would seem to be pushing him further down the depth chart?
