Jenkins Tops a Tremendous Sophomore Session in Atlanta!


Harris County HS' Jordan Jenkins was in a league of his own as a defensive linemen and the best of the best in the top camp of 2010 thus far. He was a man amongst boys; Goliath lining up against David. The 6'2.5 228 lb standout won the Overall MVP and Combine King award following a performances for the ages. Jenkins had a 33 inch vertical, 9'5 broad jump, ran a 4.41 shuttle and was beyond sensational during 1 on 1'
Jenkins was quick, athletic, explosive and simply hard to cover, almost literally forcing the o-linemen to pull their hair out during 1 on 1's. From the his NBA like athleticism to pure skill as a d-linemen, Jenkins is the total package and a highly touted recruit.

Sampson "Alec" Baldwin (JL Mann Academy) has a ton of flare in his game and has superstar potential. At 5'9 164, the WR MVP needs to continue to get bigger, but the skills are there. Baldwin has a 30.5 inch vertical, 9'4 broad jump, runs a 4.44 shuttle and has sensational hands. Baldwin also runs Larry Fitzgerald type routes, making himself an available target for his QB every time he calls hike.

This isn't a heavyweight boxing match or the 1940's but Joe Louis-Harris was a powerful force and not one to mess with. At 6'3 327 Harris, the top o-lineman , had quick feet, terrific power (yes this Joe Louis has big time power too), and tremendous technique. Harris is a great protector of the QB.

Jonah Guinn (Walnut Grove) won the QB MVP. Guinn has unmatched fundamentals for a 16 year old, taking his time and hitting his receivers right in the chest during 1 on 1's. The 5'11 172 lb Guinn has good strength, bench pressing 155 lbs 23 times, and quick feet. This kid is definitely a solid leader and the kind of player I would want running my offense.

Rodney Garvin (Creekside) is a high intensity linebacker with great all around skills. The 5'9 185 lb star won the LB MVP after his 8'10 broad jump, 4.54 shuttle run, 25 reps of 155 lbs on the bench press and exceptional 1 on 1 abilities put him atop the food chain. Garvin runs hard, tracks the ball well and is looks to be a terrific run stopper.
Carnell "oh" Boyd won the Leadership award and is a terrific player. The Westlake HS star had a 9'3 broad jump, ran a 4.59 shuttle and 4.62 40 while remaining vocal throughout the event. Every team needs a Carnell Boyd.

It was little surprise that Atlanta was a tremendous combine once again. Simply put, this area is a football hotbed.
