January 23, 200917 yr How big is Russell, Wireman? 40 time etc..? He is listed at 5'11"/205. There seems to be some inconsistancies with this kid. Rivals.com has NOT listed him as committed to Kentucky yet. He is still talking about taking another visit, so UK fans can trust only his signature on the LOI on signing day. He is not a burner. Hits the hole well, has good vision and good feet. I would doubt he is quite the size he is listed because he was not measured and weighed at a registered camp. From seeing him on tape, he makes more cuts as a runner than say, Deuce Finch.
January 23, 200917 yr Russel has a little bit of Raf Little in him. Really catches the ball well out of the backfield which is something we were lacking a little bit this season.
January 23, 200917 yr Neither of the major rankings have this guy rated very highly, that said I know they get things wrong but I just can't see him being an immediate impact.

January 24, 200917 yr I'll take a good RB out of Florida any day of the week. Hopefully we see his signature on signing day.
January 26, 200917 yr Martaveius Neloms is the newest commitment to Kentucky football from Memphis, Tennessee . He's a cornerback that is not very well known. I'm assuming he's a track athlete, and I'm hoping he's similar to Derrick Locke.
January 26, 200917 yr Derrick Locke anyone?? Do not confuse Donald Russell's speed with Derrick Locke's speed. It is not close. Donald Russell is a completely different style of runner. His style reminds me very much ironically, of Deuce Finch.

His style reminds me very much ironically, of Deuce Finch. I was not referring to him as the same type pf player. If anyone thought he had Derrick Locke speed they are way off base...As you can see above I think he has a little bit of Rafael Little in him. My post was showing that if you are not rated very highly, that doesnt mean you can't come in and play football as a freshman.
January 26, 200917 yr I'll take a good RB out of Florida any day of the week. Hopefully we see his signature on signing day. You not kidding...I watched his highlight tape and what a stud this kid is. He has that natural instinct that cannot be teached. This is going to be fun....

I'm assuming he's a track athlete, and I'm hoping he's similar to Derrick Locke. He's 6'2 with speed... I wonder why he didn't get any other offers?
