Name # Ht Wt Speed Pos Class Game Note
Tyrell Johnson 16 6'1.0" 200 4.47 SS 2008
Tyrell continues to show why he is one of the top safeties in the land that few people know about. He had 10 tackles by my count and had solid coverage all night. Showed the speed to run down a receiver as a corner was beat and Tyrell ran him down. Grade: Positive
Khayyam Burns 21 6' 1.0" 196 4.54 FS 2008
Khayyam had a solid night. He had 8 tackles by my count and had solid coverage as well. He had good coverage on punts all evening. Ran the alley on one play for an impressive tackle. Grade: Positive

Omar Haugabook 17 6'2.0" 220 4.65E QB 2008
An excellent college QB, but probably doesn't have the arm strength or mechanics for the NFL. Left the game with a hamstring injury. Runs the spread offense with precision and skill. Had an interception. Ran for 94 yards with 2 TDs and threw for 156. Grade: Positive
Gary Banks 8 6'1.0" 196 4.5E WR 2008
A former minor league baseball player. Didn't do much as he had one catch by my count. Grade: Negative
Sherrod Martin 6 6'1.0" 187 S 2008
Did he even play? He did, but didn't do anything of note. Grade:Negative
Leodis McKelvin 34 5'10.0" 180 4.37 CB 2008
Stock is rising with a bullet! Had 2 picks and solid coverage all evening.
Showed the ability to track the ball and close quickly. One pick was in the red zone where he closed and took the pick at the highest point and got hit by a teammate and still held onto the ball. Returns kicks and fumbled one. Grade:Positive
Game Notes: AK St. SO Reggie Arnold continues to show why he's a pro in waiting. Looks like former Steeler Barry Foster as he can run hard and has the leg strength to move a pile. I don't know why they don't give him the ball more. Shows good desire to get the extra yard. Has averaged about 7 yards per carry this year. Arnold had nine carries for 41 yards. How come he's not getting the ball more???
Troy RB Kenny Cattouse had 13 carries for 57 yards.
