BS Miscreant Posted July 29, 2003 Share Posted July 29, 2003 College football is a year away for him but this guy is amazing. I bring this up because I just saw Lemmings top WR recruits for 2004 on ESPN.com. He's #1 on the list. I'm a track coach in FL and have seen him in person a couple times. This is why I'm bothering: He's 6'3" 190lbs At a national track meet(Arcadia Invitational)in CA this spring he won the 100, 200 and 400 all in impressive fashion. Personal bests 100 - 10.38 200 - 20.69 400 - 45.88 40 - 4.35 He did these as a junior. Remember, Xavier Carter, Palm Bay HS, you heard it here first.

BS Miscreant Posted July 30, 2003 Author Share Posted July 30, 2003 Thanks Cur. I didn't think this post would be wildly popular but it's nice to see someone can appreciate this kid's numbers or, at the very least, thanks for humoring me. It's okay guys, I didn't really appreciate stuff like this until I started coaching track. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
polksalet Posted July 31, 2003 Share Posted July 31, 2003 Shermar bracy did almost identical numbers. rb arkansas state 6-3 240, plus he benches 350 pounds. He no rocket scietist which is why he wound up where he is but is a straight up stud. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Retrograde assault Posted August 1, 2003 Share Posted August 1, 2003 Size and speed! Every football coach and scout in America is looking for that stuff ain't they! If he has heart and balls he may be special, plus a little luck to boot! :cool: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knight Train Posted August 2, 2003 Share Posted August 2, 2003 Is he any relation to Jimmy Carter? You know, that old guy that volunteers for "Habitat for Humanity?" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justin Posted August 2, 2003 Share Posted August 2, 2003 any idea on which school he'll be heading too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BS Miscreant Posted August 4, 2003 Author Share Posted August 4, 2003 Hasn't signed yet but these are the schools in which he has supposedly expressed interest: Florida, LSU, Miami, South Carolina, Tennessee, UCLA He wants a school rich in football and track.

Jo Posted August 4, 2003 Share Posted August 4, 2003 Go Canes. You'd think they'd have the inside track with the location and the fact that they've historically had track/WR guys. Good to hear my boys will add another future superstar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Out of those schools UCLA would be the pick, then possibly Florida. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muck Posted August 24, 2003 Share Posted August 24, 2003 Actually, TCU has probably the best sprint team (track) in the country year-in-year-out. They call themselves the "Flying Frogs", and have sent several sprinters to the Olympics. And, TCU has had some pretty good teams in the past few years (and a Heisman Trophy in the schools' trophy case thanks to Sammy Baugh), maybe there is a shot they could get on the radar screen somehow...but, prolly not.

Canes26 Posted August 26, 2003 Share Posted August 26, 2003 hope he goes to the canes... rich in track/football. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crispirons Posted August 27, 2003 Share Posted August 27, 2003 my bet is he attends one of the florida schools. high school football is big in this neck of the woods and i will keep close tabs on him as i will see his highlights here locally.

Coffeeman Posted December 24, 2003 Share Posted December 24, 2003 He does sound special. When will someone set up a system for us to buy stock in these kids to make some real money? You know, I want in on the IPO! (Oops BSM, there goes my cynicism again - please see my College Grad Rates topic update...) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose he's just one of those guys you actually have to see play. An example - More on X Carter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
polksalet Posted December 27, 2003 Share Posted December 27, 2003 Im not saying the kid isnt the real deal. However if he never gets the ball, how do you know if hes really good or just really fast? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BS Miscreant Posted December 31, 2003 Author Share Posted December 31, 2003 Christmas day there was a big write up, that I apparently missed, in the local fish wrap about the state and local standout football players. They mentioned that X also had 7 TDs rushing and returning kicks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
