Here are Junior season highlights. Here's another film with some of the same plays, and some different ones.

There's a very nice dive for the TD for a big man on the first play of that first film, but after that, the same thought occurred to me a number of times as I watched those films. "Ouch".

I like this!  Destructive defensive tackles seem to be the rarest commodity in college ball.  If your DT's are doing the havoc, the rest of your D will feast.

..and here I thought that after that dive for a TD in the film, you'd be calling for him to move to FB. I mean, look at that perfect form: well timed dive, shoulders perfectly vertical as he crosses the line, and both hands on the ball. Note that he even correctly changed hands, and moved the ball to the outside hand as he rambled to the goal line, which keeps his body between would-be tacklers and the ball. A lot of high school running backs don't even get that right. I'm totally serious when I say that I bet he has played some fullback in his career, because someone that has never played running back isn't going to do that.

Seriously, this guy looks dominating, and he seems to be playing against fairly high level competition. Sometimes when the competition is at a lower level, it's hard to tell.  I rate Tony at least 3 stars.

Yeah that TD is awesome.....the more vid I watch of this guy the more I like him....at least for me it would be cool to have a Best Of video of our recruits and current and even former players.....just of the top of my head I can remember this one and Devin Bass splitting the field for a punt return td....linebackers Keller and Russell also had some great video's...and even WR Donte Foster has out of this world vids in football and basketball.. I think one of his basketball plays made ESPN.
