Nice!

 

[Peacefrog]

4.38 speed. We should be able to use that somewhere.

TE

 

[ShakyTheMohel]

Important to note, he only has one year of eligibility. Seems like a good stop/gap as other receivers gain experience.

All we need now is a top flight QB to feed this speedster TD’s

Welcome to the Dog Pound, Ardell!!!

 

[SirHypeAlot]

welcome dawg!

 

[Hornet22]

So you have guys like him, Thompkins, Maurisseau and Cameron Ross. We saw what that little scat back from Syracuse did to us. And what the Anderson’s (UCF) and Killins (UCF) did to us.
Speed kills. Definitely an upgrade over last year thus far.
Special teams should also improve with speed like this. We had horrible field position to start drives as we never had that home run threat back there receiving punts and kickoffs.

Welcome to the Pound, Ardell!

I haven’t seen much film, I kinda expect Ardell to fill in just like Buss’s 2018 season. Yeah, maybe a bit more - if we have a qb that is a throw first qb.

 

[metsfan2323]

In 2018 he was #1 on his team with 81 receptions and 9 TD's in 11 games. 16 yards per rec. The #2 receiver had just 38 receptions.

 

[Bonehead]

Welcome Dawg!!

 

[Block C]

Welcome!

Congratulations Ardell, and Welcome.

Welcome to UConn, Ardell!

 

[GridironGR8]

Sounds like a guy who will have a positive influence on the team. Both on the field and off.

 

[BlueandOG]

Love his quote - a fine young man. Welcome!

That is uncommon speed....as DB's have gotten larger...it may be difficult to cover a fly pattern one on one...and if the young man can break on a pattern, he could be a few steps ahead on slants.

My brother saw him play multiple time over the past 2 years. Says he is not only fast but also quick with his moves. Saw several plays where the QB couldn't throw it far enough for him to run under it. Hopefully we have an immediate contributor.

A mixture of Arkell and Odell? I’ll take him!

 

[Palatine]

5-10, 165. He better be fast. Good luck to the young man.

He is a little slight, but can put in time in our weight room.

• Tyreek Hill - 5'10", 185 lbs.
• Antonio Brown - 5'10", 181 lbs.
• Brandin Cooks - 5'10", 189 lbs.
• T.Y. Hilton - 5'9", 178 lbs.
• Emmanuel Sanders - 5'11", 180 lbs.
• DeSean Jackson - 5'10" 175 lbs.

FWIW: I see other sites/articles recently have him @ 5-11 180lb.

Sounds more accurate. His preschool transcript has him at 5'11 154. So He's well ahead of schedule.
