Denzel Mims was a four-sport athlete at Daingerfield High School, and most of the skills that made him exceptional were on full display in his breakout performance for Baylor last weekend against Oklahoma.
He showed his track speed when he got behind the Oklahoma secondary for a 71-yard bomb from Zach Smith. He unveiled one of the skills that made him a district MVP in basketball when he made several leaping catches against the Sooners.
Mims showed his focus and athleticism as a receiver when he made a one-handed grab of a tipped pass by an Oklahoma defender and managed to get his feet in bounds on the way down.
