2010 National Championship

Mark Ingram vs. Texas

2nd 2:20 – great suddeness, excellent footwork, nice center of gravity to shake tackle

2nd 1:53 – good agility,

2nd 1:35 – seems to lack some speed

3rd 8:09 – love his footwork,


Marcell Dareus

2nd :15 – very quick and athletic and fluid off snape, intercepts shovel pitch for a TD, shows great athleticism on TD run

3rd 14:54 – shows good power and hands off snap to disengage, lacks elite speed to shut down RB on stretch

3rd 13:25 – good job collapsing pocket, athletic but not elite

3rd 5:39 – outstanding bull rush, great power and stays low getting under OTs pads, good motor

3rd 3:16 – amazing power, great leverage and stays low, very good lower body strength, shoves TE with left arm then takes on block

3rd 2:58 – good burst off snap, gets great hand extension, nice strength and power at POA

3rd 2:16 – shows good agility and athleticism on play, but can’t make an impact on screen at 0-tech
