Sweet, sign him up.

 

[Cali_domer]

Want

 

[rtrn2glory]

ranked low by rivals, but has offers from fla st and urban so he can't be too bad.

 

[GoldenIsThyFame]

Offered today. Brother plays at Maryland. Skinny as a bean pole but stupid fast.

 

[FLDomer]

Offered today. Brother plays at Maryland. Skinny as a bean pole but wicked fast.

He has to be so he doesnt get broken in half!

 

[Emcee77]

Interesting offer. Slot WR or CB? I liked some of the plays on the ball he made on D in those highlights. He's small compared to most of the guys we go after at CB though.

 

[ColinKSU]

I wonder what position Nebraska offered him at. They seem to understand CB play.

While Taivon Jacobs is likely going to accept a football scholarship from a school, he also wants to run track in college and has Olympic dreams.

Sounds familiar...

 

[peoriairish]

Is that 4.35 for real? My goodness that quick. IMO, too small for CB. Gotta be a slot guy.

[Irish Fam]

tyrann mathieuu!?!

 

[Polish Leppy 22]

so that's what steve urkel would've looked like on the football field

 

[BeauBenken]

Funny picture. 5-10 is too short for corner? You guys are crazy. Sure, we'd like them to be bigger and more physical, but 5-10 is not bad especially when he runs a 4.35

Btw, if he reminds you of anyone it should be Marvin Bracy.

 

[NDinL.A.]

ND is not a top school for sprinters with Olympic aspirations. That will be pounded into his head were he to consider ND. Not going to happen unless he REALLY values a great education...

This could definitely help... a lot. Once we get Davonte on the field this year, and show this kid what we can do with him, that will help too.

Devin Butler ‏ @Devin7_Era
#shoutout to my boy @D1_BoundJacobs for gettin that #ND offer today!! Hopefully he joins #IrishMob13 @TOP_MALIK6 @J_Walls @Steve_Elmer

(D1_BoundJacobs is Taivon)

 

[STLDomer]

He is soo skinny, Chris brown looks like braxston next to him

 

[scUM Hater]

Wes Welker 5'9" ,185lbs. Give Taivon 2 years.

 

[Sherm Sticky]

Stupid fast...he negates angles.

 

[NDPhilly]

Per 247 Was at the camp. Has a top 8 of Notre Dame, Ohio State, Miami, Maryland, West Virginia, North Carolina State, Michigan State and Michigan.

Highlights of trip for him were that the staff worried about life after football, liked the Grotto and Basillica

In that order?

 

[NDPhilly]

In that order?

I don't believe so but he didn't specify. Michigan hasn't offered and probably won't considering their low amount of scholarships left.

 

[yankeeND]

I would really like to get a replacement speedster for Darby. The shoe fits!

 

[NDPhilly]

Not gonna lie, Taivon's highlights remind me a lot of Desean Jackson.

 

[yankeeND]

Philly, you would just hate havining a Jackson clone wouldn't ya

It was your soccer gif

 

[IrishLax]

His second gear is insane. It's hard to tell how fluid he is, but he sure as heck has the speed and then some. Wow.
